For the loyal minions who have followed this crap for over a year. You will remember
this shocking post where I laid it all out there for the world to see how we live in the nuthouse.
After that post I thought about getting one of these...
But I was skeered.
YES! Scared! I don't want someone rummaging through my underwear drawer, or seeing the 2 inch thick drips of food on my cabinet fronts!
So I didn't hire one.
Then I started Macaroni Kid and other online marketing part time jobs to go with my full time job at the school and the house got worse. (It may or may not have something to do with a corn cob in my bed.)
Supah said "Chief! You gotta get a maid. It will change your life. I got one a few months ago and I will never go back to the mess."
sigh
I was skeered
I thought about it.. and thought...
until the first of this week.... when I called a place an old high school friend of mine suggested.
I told Robyn (The owner) that I was skeered, antisocial, unorganized, embarrassed and overall a blathering mess who works WAAAY too much. She set my mind at ease and came over to do a bid for me.
I opened my kitchen cabinets to show her how bad my life is. I think she may or may not have pooed herself, (I don't know because the house is so dirty it smells like poo most of the time.)
Then she offered to completely reorganize the entire kitchen in addition to having the house deep cleaned... FOR $70 EXTRA DOLLARS! I pooed
Then I gave her the additional $80 and asked her when she could start. She said she would send HER CREW (yes I said CREW, Supah) over two days later.
That was Wednesday.
4 people came with equipment I have never seen the likes of..
They had razor blades, blowers, suckers, scrubbers, shiners, buffers, scrapers....
they spent 6 hours... 6
I should be embarrassed, but I'm not. 24 professional hours of cleaning is what it took for me to know what its like to live without filth...
Its amazing.. the drips, are gone
the goo on the ceiling... gone
baseboards, air vents, grout, kids rooms, closets, cupboards, toilet seat hinges, Wii cords, ceiling fans, door bell box, refrigerator grate, walls...
all like new.
for $170
These ladies not only did this:
THEY WASHED THE SHEETS! and started a load of laundry that was in the hamper.
They set out air freshener...
WE walked into the house and the four of us just stood in the entry and stared.
SILENCE
until Bud said he needed to poo.. REAL BAD
I snapped my head to look at him and told him he would have to poo outside like the dogs.
he knew I wasn't kidding and he was scared.
I told him he couldn't go outside until it was dark or the neighbors would see... he clinched his backside and looked worried. So I told Duke to take him to the gas station to poo.
there was no argument. My kid was taken to a convenience store to poo.
(those of you who are new readers.. think I'm joking. The die hard Chief fans.. know I am dead serious)
snort...
I'm thinking of gettin an outhouse.. that looks like a shed.
So anyhoodle.. I immediately got on Skype and told Supah about my house. I told her about the scraping, the scrubbing, the laundry... and guess what she did.
She told me to F*ck Off! Apparently she thinks I am trying to one up her with my cleaning CREW.. because she only has this:
She has issues.. real bad jealousy issues with me<---we all know this, and its sad
This was the icing on the cake for her. She doesn't get clean sheets and dishes and laundry. She gets no razoring or buffing. I asked her where she found her pitiful cleaning LADY <---not crew... THE SOUP KITCHEN!
you know what she said?
F*ck YOU! again
she is real mad
I feel a bit guilty now... not because my house is cleaner than hers... and she is the one that pushed me to do it in the first place..
I feel bad for the old lady she fired last night in a
Dear John letter because she LOST HER PHONE NUMBER! I asked her "How do you lose the phone number of your cleaning lady?"
and she told me to eff off again and reminded me about the corn cob.
woops
So Supah will soon have a CREW like me.. she keeps trying to beat me.. keeps trying to climb the ladder of success that is the Chief...
It's sad.
