The newly hired cleaner left at 3:50 and I have spent the last 45 minutes dusting and oiling the furniture. What is wrong with this scenario? So, if anyone has recommendations for a cleaner..........? I should have known better when, on her first session, she stated I should get hid of a lot of our stuff. Sheesh. And, of course, the vacuum cleaner is left in the middle of the kitchen. I would like to interview and get quotes during the time between Christmas and New Years with the view to have a new person hired for January 5th. Greatly appreciated and thanks in advance. Please pm me.
