I found that one of the mom's of a student in my school was cleaning for several of the teachers so I contacted her. What a GEM... she comes every 2 weeks and does the floors, bathrooms, dusting, cleans the kitchen appliances, etc and then every once and a while she picks a project like the linen closet or the refrigerator and organizes it . She even did DD closet once...I honestly don't know what we would do without her.
After I had DD and went back to work full time I was just overwhelmed with trying to do it all. I felt a bit guilty that I wasn't able to keep up with it myself but the way I look at things I am now able to actually enjoy my weekend time without having to clean one of the days.
I still have to keep up with the dishes, laundry, etc but she makes it so nice to come home every other Tuesday to a clean house!
Oh, we pay $75 each time she comes and I believe she is here about 3 hours. We have 2 bedroom, 1.5 baths so it is not a huge house.
I think I would give up cable before her if we had to cut back..it really is a quality of life issue for me.
