Do you have a maid? Do you think it's worth it?
Okay, I am a stay at home WORKING mom and honestly, just don't have it in me some days to fold the laundry or vacuum the rug. I was wondering, what are your thoughts on maid services? Do you think that it's worth paying someone to lend a helping hand or is it a waste of money?
*Keep in mind, I would only have someone come maybe twice a month, to lighten the load slightly. I'm not so lazy I would need one every other day or even once a week.
No, there is a gal I know that does cleaning, and I keep saying I am going to call her and get her help. But I never do it. I just can't bring myself to have someone else deal with my mess.
I had someone 2 days a week for a little while, but it was my daughter when she wasn't working and it worked out great. Then she got a full time job and that was that.
You could always give it a try and see how you like having a cleaning service. Nothing is permanent. If you don't like it, you can cancel their service. It could end up being the best thing you ever did for yourself and family. A happy mommy is a happy family! Best ~ fitmom

For a short-term duration, do you like maid service while you are staying at a hotel?When I stay for 1-3 days at a hotel, I will place the Do Not Disturb sign on the door because I just don't like the idea of someone coming into my room when I am not there, or even just to clean the room when I am...

Do you think being "DIFFERENT" is worth it?We all have different opinions about what being unique means.... but is it worth it to try being different? What do think!!!
