Hi Maria,

I love reading your newsletter.

Cleaning, and specifically cleaning the bathrooms, is something I hated. I dreaded it and cursed it the whole time doing it and, when finished, I already was dreading the next time I would have to do it. Then, one day, I had an idea. Hire someone to do it for me!

Now, I've had this conversation with many people and I know what most people say, 'Oh, I can't afford that.'

I often challenge that statement with how many times do you stop for Starbucks a month or eat out, and would you be willing to cut that back? That's something you enjoy, yes, but would it be worth it to cut back something you enjoy to eliminate a daunting task that you hate?

I'm a 35-year old professional business woman living in Portland, Oregon with my fiancé and I've been able to make room in my budget for a cleaning lady for the past 10 years of my life. Again, I've sacrificed going out to eat and Starbucks a few times a month to make that happen, but to me it's a priority and totally worth it!

Note from Maria Gracia on the topic of cleaning services: The nice thing about some cleaning services is that they're willing to work within budgets. So, while some people will pay for a weekly service, many offer twice-a-month, or a once-a-month deep cleaning. Some people are willing to do 'light cleaning' day-to-day and then have a service come in to do the heavy-duty cleaning. One friend of mine just pays her cleaning service to deep clean her bathrooms...she doesn't mind doing the rest of the house, but dreads cleaning the bathrooms. So, if you find room for it within your budget and you dread cleaning and/or have no time to do it, hiring a cleaning service can certainly save time and effort. Shop around and ask questions. Get local referrals from your friends. You just may find a cleaning service that is perfect for your needs.
