A wonderfully peaceful day

[wiseheart]

... despite the laundry and the cooking, both of which had to be done. But I can only begin to understand what a weight not having help with the cleaning had been on my shoulders. I was walking on clouds from sheer relief. This gave me the strength to do the long-overdue inventory of my baking supplies and even clean out a drawer in the fridge in the process!

I also did some writing and crafting, all that without the usual urgency of needing to do as much as I can before slave labour would start again. It was amazing, having this peace of mind, simply amazing.

I'm so glad you found someone to take that off your hands!

Believe me, so am I! Even though all that packing and rearranging and putting things back in their places still remains my job. But having to spend 2-3 days with cleaning is such a waste of time; with help, we were done in a single morning and I can live a remotely normal life in the remaining time.

I really wish I had a cleaner as well.

I still do most of the work myself. I just need someone for climbing ladders and doing the vacuum cleaning and the wiping the floors, as my back can't really bear those things on the long run.

I'm so glad the new cleaning woman is a success. What a relief to have help again!

It is indeed! Let's hope it will last, too.

I fervently hope so.

Glad you feel more calm.

I'm just beginning to realize how tense this whole situation has made me.

I'm so happy for you and I hope your new cleaning lady continues to come.

Thanks. So do I, TBH.

You have to tie that lady to your flat! Cleaning ladies are hard to get these days!

I'll try my best. :)

Glad it worked out. I am trying to get rid of stuff so cleaning won't be so painful.
