Have a Housecleaner

“The company had a weekly spot available, so now I have two cleaners come to my house for two and half hours every Wednesday. I still spend part of Tuesday in preparation, making sure there aren’t any dishes in the sink and sometimes doing an extra deep vacuum. I leave the cleaners 20 bucks each for a tip and get everyone out of the house before they get here. [...] But one day I walked into my bedroom and saw the beautiful way the cleaners had made my bed and arranged all the stuffed animals. It made me smile, then brought tears to my eyes. It was the first time someone had made a lot of effort to take care of me in weeks. I went to the living room and, for once, I didn’t feel the urge to scrub the whole place down. The work was done. I could breathe.”

“Oh man, it was SO amazing to come home to a clean house. She cleaned things that haven't been cleaned in the 4 years we've lived here, lol. In fact, it was so bad that she only got to the downstairs. She'll focus on the upstairs next time she comes, and from there out it will just be maintenance and she will do both floors every time.”
