She does the deep cleaning stuff, the kind of work we really don't want to do, like scrub toilets and the floor and such. She's independent, so she's surprisingly affordable and worth it for us.<br /><br />Here's the side bonus: in order to keep it affordable, she does the deep cleaning but we do the decluttering. So at least every two weeks (though with MTL and I the way we are, we put the kids to work more often on this), we have to make sure that surfaces and floors are decluttered. It is a little annoying to have to clean for the cleaning lady, but on the other hand, our house doesn't look like an archeological treasure trove.<br /><br />Just an idea.<br /><br />And courage.
