KEEPING the MAID
The maid did ok today considering the distraction of about an hour on the phone. Four calls to be exact
She did this
- cleaned kitchen window
- pressed and hung new swag @ the kitchen window
- stabilized electric cord for light over kitchen sink
- washed and dried 1 load of laundry
- folded 2 loads of laundry (1 was in the dryer)
- watched 5 of the grandchildren about 1 1/2 hours—the 3 boys watched a movie and the 2 baby girls followed her almost every step she took. If she turned around she almost stepped on one of them.
- went to the bank
- while out also did a little grocery shopping
- rummaged thru chest type freezer for collards
- prepared supper
- will put black eyed peas in soak
- and prepare fresh picnic for barbecuing before she goes to bed.
Yes, she did work fairly well today, so I will keep her a few more days and if she continues to improve, I will let her stay.
Tomorrow she will need to get up and vacumm, put away folded clothes and prepare a meal–then and only then will I consider letting her have the balance of the day off.
