i know it's wrong

instead of cleaning my house yesterday to prepare for the arrival of Wee, i cashed in a christmas check from grandma H. and paid a team of 3 far more efficient women to come do it for me. i am not going to lie to you. it was super-duper.

and now i can do less of this:

and more of this:
don't think i won't.

Awesome. I've never done that but thought I had some rich old lady before I was allowed. Now I know better! When I'm 9 months pregnant (uh, one of these days)...I'm doing it too.

I was JUST thinking how much I wanted to pay someone to clean my bathroom and kitchen for me. It is so hard to really clean a bathtub and shower with this big pregnant belly in my way. And really, should I be breathing in all these chemicals?

dana, just get an old rich lady to pay for it, then enjoy! (not a nice way to refer to my grandma, huh? what i meant to say was, gratefully accept gift from generous, thoughtful, mature family member)...

doris, all of those reasons are the exact way i was able to justify this. i'm sure when it's dirty again i'll start thinking of all the other ways i could have spent (or saved) that money, but right now...SO WORTH IT.

Meg said...

That is the coolest spending of Christmas cash I have heard of yet!

Kathryn said...

Good for you. Where is Wee anyway? Isn't it about time for her to be making her grand entrance into the world?
