The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm actually hoping to be able to work next week, so I will need to go get lunches at some point this weekend, but I may blow that off until tomorrow.

I hired a house cleaner who starts on Wednesday (she'll come every two weeks), so I need to neaten the place up some, but I don't need to do much real cleaning. \\o/

Our wings are not tired.

Perkins, you're going to love having a housecleaner! I've scaled mine back to ad hoc, usually just before guests come. Mostly so that I don't have to mop all of my hardwood floors myself!

If you feel like going out, Perkins, I'd go ahead and do that. You can pick up in bits.

I am looking forward to it, Javachik. I've been playing with the idea for a while, but couldn't quite justify the cost, until now.

That is a good point, Ginger. I think I may just do that.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Perkins, I just hired my cleaning service back, because my house is so much nicer clean, and apparently I ain't gonna clean it. Today I am reveling in not needing to spend Saturday cleaning house (or feeling guilty about not).

Should I buy this? It would look lovely on my patio covered in ivy and cats.

I'm getting the pig!

DH and I keep talking about hiring someone to come in and clean twice a month but we haven't actually done it yet. Today, as I'm looking around at lightly floating fur EVERYWHERE, it would really be nice to have someone clean while we're out doing errands. Or clean and shave the cats.

{{{Perkins}}} just because.

Totally! If I had patio cats, I would buy it.

Nicole!!! Just because

When I have my fully funded emergency fund complete (baby step 3), which should be at the end of the year or so, I am getting a cleaning service. I can't wait.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

I'm thinking about canceling my cable and TiVo and just relying on hulu and Netflix for my TV and using the money I save for a cleaning service. My cable box seems to shut itself off every time I"m out of town anyway (which is a lot these days) so I end up recording a blank screen and catching up on hulu anyway, and I never watch live TV.

not your mom's socks.

we do this. Occasionally, I suspect DH goes and watches football through the neighbors' window, though, so we reconsider sometimes.
