So after I told hubby you were getting another cleaning lady, hubby told me no, I can not have another one until I go back to work and then he followed by "If Marinka jumped off a bridge, would you think I should let you too", to which I replied "Hell, yes!" (Sorry, that isn't entirely how the conversation went, but I did want to try to explain a little better).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08949898002784637260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2455477065088022337.post-54889575410731143512009-07-01T21:52:23.883-04:002009-07-01T21:52:23.883-04:00I have to tell you that it took me a few days to r...I have to tell you that it took me a few days to read this post because I was so pissed (jealous). I even told my husband how just like us you had cut back your cleaning woman due to the economy and YOU WERE GETTING ONE AGAIN (..ahem..cough...bitch...cough). So finally getting caught up and I decided to go ahead and read. I wanted to let you know I do truly feel your pain in not finding the perfect one yet. I will officially stop hating you (as lovingly as possible) and join your side of the "debate".Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08949898002784637260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2455477065088022337.post-2045464160138333532009-06-30T16:02:42.224-04:002009-06-30T16:02:42.224-04:00oh Boy do I miss mine.
