[quote=Anonymous]We have a house cleaning service that comes every other week to clean.  They don't do anything other than clean.  We recently found a woman who comes once weekly and does laundry, light housekeeping, and whatever other odd tasks I ask (e.g., sanitizing the humidifier, organizing a closet, cleaning up playroom, etc.).  It's some of the best money we spend.  Prior to this, I spent my life with chores hanging over my head every day because I could never fully catch up.  I'm still doing the day-to-day tidying, and I still wash all of the laundry, but the never-ending cycle of folding and putting away clothes is complete, the kitchen floors are mopped once per week, and other odd tasks don't have to move from one mental to-do list to another.  The woman charges $25/hour solo or $50/hour when she comes with her sister-in-law.  We normally use about 5-6 hours of work a week.  They are very efficient and to me, this equates to another 5-6 hours I can spend hanging out with my family without the weight of excessive undone chores over my head.  You can find people who do this type of work, but you have to search for it because most house cleaners won't. [/quote]
