Last night I didn't actually do any sewing, just some pre-sewing stuff. AKA cutting. I cut out the pieces to make two 'broken sugar bowl' pattern blocks in different blues. Tonight I plan to go upstairs and sew them together while my wonderful cleaning ladies are working their magic.
Yes, I have cleaning ladies. I hope no one thinks I'm some kind of snob or rich you-know-what, because I am not. These two gals come every other week for two hours and do the basics - floors, bathroom, vacuum - that sort of stuff. They charge $40 total, which I have figured out I can afford IF I don't eat lunch out when I am at work.
I will be the first to tell you that I am a horrible housekeeper. I mean, I'm pretty bad at it. I hate to do it, have no desire to do it, therefore I don't do it. I work a full time job, as I'm sure most everyone of us does in this day and age, and when I go home I want my down time to be mine. I already go home and cook dinner every night and do laundry and dishes. I could go on and on, because I feel like I have to justify having someone else clean my house, but I will stop here. Besides, it makes me and Ev happy to have a clean house. That's worth $20 a week.
Tonight I am going to make a pot of vegetarian chili and some cheese quesadillas for dinner. It's Ash Wednesday, so we will go meatless, plus Nick can take some of it home with him tomorrow when I see him.

I have someone clean my house too - and it is so worth it to me! I'd rather save somewhere else that doesn't matter and spend the money on something that really really improves my life :)
