Cleaning lady drama this morning

And this time it wasn't her fault! I remembered that she was coming and left the back door unlocked for her. . . but when I left out the front door I set the alarm just out of habit. So, naturally she tripped the alarm when she opened the back door and entered. She texted me and I responded with the code to disarm it right away, but it still wasn't in time so the alarm company was alerted. They called my husband who was in a meeting and didn't respond, so they dispatched the police to the house. Then they called me and I was able to explain what was going on. By that point it was too late to call off the police. I guess the cleaning lady was able to show them that she disarmed the system and show them our text messages because she texted me and said "the police were here and it was funny!" Glad she thought it was funny!

Oh my! My cleaning lady up and quit. She left me holding the bag...so now I need to clean the house myself. Company is coming and I do want my home to look spotless.

@NJChicaa I have exacting standards...that only makes it harder. I also live in a small town...there is a very limited pool to draw from.

Wow, that had to have been alarming for the poor woman. A good thing she thought it funny.

@NJChicaa She must be, not to get flustered through all that happened.

It would have been funny, had the hang-cuffed her and took her to the police station! Sorry, for my warped sense of humor:(

no that wouldn't have been funny! She probably wouldn't have ever come back to work for me!
