Finally time to catch up

What started out as good intentions got away from me. Soon after I sent out the email that I was going to blog at least weekly, my grandmother died. Needless to say, the month of May ran away from me quickly. I have finally taken care of family obligations, and wanted to catch up.

Which brings me to a topic that affects everyone. It is amazing how little, or in my case, big things can all of a sudden disrupt your life. While I didn't blog, I still ran my business, while dealing with family issues. Unfortunately not everyone can handle everything in a time of need. Most families now are dual income, and there are usually children, sports, date nights, and other activities going on.

The most common question asked of me is, "Am I really in need of a cleaning service, and how often should I have it done?" My answer to that is this - if you are calling me, and having me come out to your home to give you a quote, yes, you probably need a cleaning service. As far as how often - I recommend at least every other week. Any less than that and you are setting yourself up for feeling overwhelmed that your home is getting to dirty in between cleanings. With every other week, most people start to notice within a couple of days before their cleaning that the home is getting dirty.

If that is the case, I strongly suggest going with weekly service. While this may not be affordable for everyone, it is something to think about if you absolutely don't want to have to do anything in between cleanings.

I am noticing more and more that it is both people in the relationship saying that they don't want to do the cleaning, and they want to spend more time together - whether it is relaxing, or doing things that need to get done with the kids and other obligations. Somehow it always seems to fit in the budget, and it makes for happier families.

Until next time remember - simply...more time. Isn't that what everyone is looking for?

God Bless
