i work part time, my fiance works full time, no children, and we have three cats. even with all of the extra time i have since getting laid off and going to part time work, i find that i really don’t relish cleaning *certain* things. cat hair in the corners, up against baseboards, and on the stairs is one of them. if i could afford to, i would hire someone to come in once or twice a month to deal with those things and other “deep” cleaning jobs (washing windows, dusting, cleaning under furniture). i don’t mind everyday chores and organizing. i think it is just baloney for someone to assume that cleaning people will steal from you, cause trouble, commit identity theft, etc. it’s all about finding trustworthy people. in this economy most people value making money enough not to risk it. also, even though i don’t have 12 kids i still like to spend my time doing more worthwhile things than detailed vacuuming and washing windows.

I clean houses for extra money – and my “dirty” little secret is that I much prefer to clean a house that is actually dirty! I have clients who clean before I get there and I feel so useless! It makes me feel great to help somebody make a home. I also barter with a few of my clients – in fact I just brought a home an incredible MCM couch from an interior designer client of mine!

My husband hired a cleaning lady to come once a month for Valentines this year. It is the best gift ever, he will never top that:) Unless he gets her to come two times a month.
