These days, we lead busy, fast-paced lives.  It’s only natural to feel resentment when we have to spend our weekends getting the house in order.  Rather than enjoying a morning run, you’ve got to clean the oven.  Instead of spending time with the children, you’re knee deep in laundry.

This quote on household cleaning and chores may just make you feel a little better:

“I am thankful for a lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning and gutters that need fixing because it means I have a home…I am thankful for the piles of laundry and ironing because it means my loved ones are nearby.”  Nancie J Carmody – Cleaning quote from Makings of Motherhood

Of course, if you literally don’t have enough hours in the day – thankfulness isn’t going to help.  If chores are weighing you down, why not hire a cleaner?  Employing a professional for just a few hours a week will give you lots more free time, and could transform your life.
