Desparately Seeking Alice

This weekend I finally broke down...opened up my piggy bank and called my friend Christy to have her come clean for me. Now this is not Christy's full time job she is just one of those insane wonderful people who just genuinely loves to clean and she will do it for a few select friends just for a little extra income from time to time. I am pretty sure when she walked through my front door she did not realize the hell challenge that faced her.

She spent over four hours here on Saturday, and another four Sunday afternoon, and she still has my girls and husband wandering around in a daze. Rebecca remarked, "I didn't even know you were supposed to clean the outside of the trash cans in the house. I thought they were supposed to look like that because they were for trash." I guess that gives everyone some indication of the type of housekeeper I am.

It has prompted me to realize more than ever though what I truly want for Christmas. I want Alice!

Someone who genuinely enjoys the mundane tasks that are really not my God given natural talents. I need a smiley face to clean, cook, grocery shop, and she can even keep her little man Sam the butcher on the side (the little hoochie mama).

I am in desperate need of my very own Alice....anyone want to hook me up?
