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.
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.
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.

we do this. Occasionally, I suspect DH goes and watches football through the neighbors' window, though, so we reconsider sometimes.
I do no cable but Tivo. Hulu is often jerky when I try to view. It means I only watch network shows, but that is more than I can keep up with anyway.
I am toying with the idea of a cleaning service myself. Maybe not very often, but just to get the place cleaned down to the core and then I can work from there.
I do wonder how a cleaning service would deal with a blind, diapered miniature poodle in the house. She mostly sleeps, but definitely would need to be vacuumed around. She doesn't bark anymore, and doesn't bite, but she'll wander with a vengeance, sometimes. It depends on the cleaning folks' comfort level with strange pet behavior, I suppose.
I couldn't justify the cost of cable, esp given that cable customer service sucks. So I've been living with just broadcast TV and what I can get on the Internet for years now. It can occasionally be frustrating but I'm mostly satisfied. And I don't have to deal with evil cable conglomerates nor spend that monthly $.
