A lot of chores await me.

I have grown used to have someone to do some chores for me. It is difficult for me to mop floors and vaccum the house. So when Anita said that again she would not come I decided that I would have to do at least part of her job.
I went to the kitchen to cook my lunch and looking at some messes I started with the kitchen floor. Now I´m mylotting while the floor dries. The mop is being washed by Juanita.
I don´t like to cook with a dirty floor. I feel that I will step on things I shouldn´t and take the mess elsewhere. So I cleaned one of the countertops, part of the dishes and the floor. My guardian angels are drying everything and then I´ll go and fry some mushrooms in butter and then prepare a Bechamel sauce to mix with them. I´ll also cook some pasta and that will be my lunch.
After a nap I´ll fix a salad for dinner.
I hope Anita gets better. If she doesn´t, I´ll have to find another helper.

@marguicha ........I can too. I especially like the layered casserole-type dish I make.

@marguicha neither do I but I must do it, I can't afford to pay someone to do it for me.

Growing up I am used to other people doing chores for me. When I had my kids I got nannies to do the chores and help take care of kids. Not until my youngest was 4 years old and we moved to our own house did I leave my work and be the 'stay at home' mom that I do all the chores.

Definitely- nobody wants to cook witha dirty floor or place .Well, do things slow and one at a time. I am doing that although my daily errands keep me busy during weekdays. Most of the household chores atleast for me happens over weekends. I do them at a medium pace , not over do them and one at a time. It has helped me to be in full energy even after completing things and be comfortable in doing things at my pace. Reading the discussion , I feel you have done really well. And you could think of another helped in case Anita does not get better. You have a great time ahead!

I hope Anita gets better too. I don't know what I would do without my husband's two cousins. I can't do these things for myself. Have a good day.
