Flame Free Confession....I am trying to get estimates on a house cleaning service. Not because I have a house full of kids, or pets, or am too busy to give it a 'good' cleaning...but basically because -- I want to. The hubs just looks at me like I'm being ridiculous; our house is just over 2100 sqft...it is really easy to take care of too.
Anyone else have a FFC?

Re: can I get a ...FFC??
Oh, now I remember one.. .
I can not relate to some people, not all most I find very friendly and helpful, on other boards....one board in particular the m/c board. I know I've had my down moments but there are women on that board that have lost 2nd tri- 3rd tri pregnancies and they are dealing with their loss 100x's better than those that are dealing with a 6 week or less loss.
Most of them are great but I often find myself wanting to shake some sense into the others.
I hope this doesn't offend anyone here (I love everyone here) and everyone has a right to grieve their loss regardless of how early or late it.
Ugh...I've typed more but I keep erasing it.
FFC: I have been praying that DH finds a job so hard that I have actually started to bargin with God. I told him I was willing to give up my dream of a baby if DH could find a job soon! Makes me cry to think this but DH is so depressed and upset over not having a job it is killing me!
Ok mine is so bad I don't really want to type it but I will. OK here goes nothing flame free right? I heard you can get a +HPT if you do it too soon after an HCG shot. I was tempted to POAS (I didn't but I wanted too) just to see a +
How sorry am I? Wanting to waste good money for a false+!!!!
I want to ask for one for Christmas.... I hate cleaning bathrooms, I want them to come in and clean them up so I don't have to...
I barely cleaned at all the whole time I was laid off.... I am BAD!
Baze.. I'm sorry your DH is having such a hard time. I ended up taking a PT job at less than half of my former rate. But the good thing is I love the job. I'll add him to my prayers!
this is post I can relate too! I long for a house cleaner, my house is only 1600 ft and I hate having to spend my weekends cleaning.
Hell...I would be happy if they just came and cleaned the bathrooms.
No fames here!
Oh what I give for a housekeeper, I am good doing with everything EXCEPT for the bathrooms, I hate doing the bathrooms!!
My confession (flame free right?), I worked all day, went over to my papaws and picked over a bushel of green beans, get home after 8pm, and DH says whats for dinner???
What are you 10 yrs old? So he got ham sandwiches and potatoe chips!!! How about you fix me dinner!!!!!
I can so relate, I have been asking my dh if we can have a cleaning person, I hate cleaning, especially when I work all week.
I must admit I am a blue jeans snob, I only wear designer jeans, and refuse to look at anything else. I know thats horrible.
These are all so good. FWIW, I have a cleaning service too, and my house is 1600 feet or so and I work from home. I know, I know - seems like I am terribly spoiled (and, really, I guess I am), but even though I work from home, I work long hours and since I do work from home, that last thing I want do to when I stop working is work in the home some more.
I guess that's my FFC. I am really, really fortunate that I have the job I do. I really like what I do, love my boss and adore the flexibility it offers me, but sometimes I'm just so tired, I wish I could slip back in bed or lounge in front of the TV. Never do, though - I'd feel way too guilty and would never get anything done.
Wow - it never occured to me to feel like I shouldn't have a cleaning service. I suck at house cleaning and figure your house is a big investment you might as well take care of it.
So I guess here is my FFC - when my kids were younger and I was divorced and working and going to grad school and poor...I had a small staff. I had a housecleaner, a yard service, and and an after school nanny - who did homework with the kids, ran errands, did light picking up and drove the kids to their various activities. My parents also live nearby and do that stuff too. It almost wasn't enough help and put me into debt to do it but there was NO OTHER WAY.
