Why
do I feel so guilty? You will all remember a couple of years ago when
I decided to go full bore and get a cleaning person for my apartment.
I found a great cleaning person from my apartment manager here at
Plymouth view. But like everything else my time with Jennifer was
limited because for one reason or another she got out of the cleaning
business. What a shame she is my first and the best. Next I end up
engaging one of my first caregivers back in the old days at the old
house but I still married. She's actually quite aged and am amazed
that she continues I has to continue to work in order survive. There
is quite a long time after Jennifer before I end up going with Gail.
Gail was okay a little slower but you charged a lot less than other
women in the trade. Recently, you will remember, Gail had the
automobile accident and I really thought that she was done with
housework and such. She had to replace her vehicle entirely on her
own and I do not know how she pulled that rabbit out of the hat but
Gail did and on the road again.
When
I had Jennifer the first and best house keeper I only used here for
one hour a week she got everything done within that hour. He Gail and
the others just have not measured up to the standard of Jennifer but
I was still pleased to have them because they made my apartment
livable for me. Gail insisted on two hours a visit which scared me at
first out what it will cost me $30 in cash, under the table. What a
system. When Gail had her accident, naturally also left without a
cleaning person. Annette who is been providing home health services
were three or four months now ever since my last person left does a
great job of cleaning the place while I'm doing my bowel program
which takes anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes! Vacuuming floors, mopping
the kitchen and the bathroom, starting wash and even folded wash when
she's here in the wash is done drying. Within the hour that I have
her through the agency she really keeps the apartment maintained very
well. So with Gail out of the picture I naturally offered the same
deal to Annette who took it and somehow it's worked into every week
cleaning versus wants or twice a month. I'm blessed because I can do
that financially right now and I really do enjoy the level of service
that I've gotten from Annette.
This
afternoon as Annette was here to do the two hours, from 3 to 5. I
have to think of things for her to do to absorb the two hours. Today
I was having Annette help me stir biscuits from a mix. There was a
knock on the door and in came Gail. I had the weirdest feeling of
being caught, of mixed it up with another woman. I was totally
shocked from what I had heard from the accident that I was sure that
Gail is going to be out of commission for some time but here she was
back in the game and I think she really needs to work. I don't know
what I can do because I don't think it's fair to break the contract
with Annette who also really needs the work. Gail and I talked for a
little bit she dropped off the towels and then was gone. Nobody
talked about anything but I think it'll go on as is. Perhaps I can
refer Gail over to somebody else who is looking for some possible
options for light housekeeping. It's the least I can do…
