Tired....oh so tired.....

It's been a while since I last blogged and once again I am "moaning"! I am however sooooooooooooo very tired..... in fact, its MS fatigue brought on through over doing things....

I have advice for ANY woman out there who has a maid/helper/cleaner or similar.......CHECK PROPERLY that you are happy with the standard of work and that things are done the way you want them to be on a REGULAR basis.....

I didn't do so......

I must remember that the Philippino who works for me is not like us "Western woman"....the home she comes from does not having running hot water..........wardrobes........rugs.......or even a bed (a mattress on the floor is enough)............. As such, how would she know that I like (and expect) my toilets to be cleaned properly with disinfectant.......that dust settles under beds so sweeping is required etc etc etc..............

Having noticed a few "issues" I decided to over haul the master bedroom and en suite today...... 3 HOURS to sort the bathroom - including removing the vile mould that was groing inside the jacuzzi jets.......blitzing the same mould happily maturing in the marble joints of the shower...... and os on and so on....it seems window silla ARE cleaned in a manner.....never under or behind and object but around them! I then went on to the bedroom...............4 SOLID hours in there .....enough said..................anyway........one bedroom down.....6 to go........going to be a long week! Suppose I'll have to get on with it and then start on the toy room, lounges and kitchen ............... ho hum!

Better close now - business clooegues heading this way for dinner so I must start prepping!
