Overprivileged

[ailbhe]

So the house is very very tidy, because we are of the overprivileged few who have somoene else come in once a week and vacuum, wash floors, and dust, polish, clean paintwork etc etc etc. I don't want to hear about how overprivileged that makes me, I feel more than guilty enough already.

I have also done a load of laundry and am about ready to eat; the weather continues charming and this morning I will study in the garden.

No, really, I will. I wore shorts especially for the weather.

At some point in my life I aim to have "someone who does"... that point is fast approaching. The only thing, for me, would be resisting the urge to make sure everything was clean before they came to do exactly that :-)

Cleaning for the cleaners

Yes, not doing that is hard. Thankfully, ours need to have the flat surfaces cleared, so I can tidy up compulsively before they come and then I have to just leave, once the place is cleared enough to be polished, vacuumed, etc. I can't bear sitting around while they do it.

But I do feel that I'm letting the proletariat down.
