We discovered last night when we returned home that our housekeeping service is likely tossing in the towel. Apparently, Kevin has had a lot of difficulty retaining staff and I think he's tired of dealing with the problem.
With a little luck, he take a break to find the energy to persevere, but there's a strong possibility that we'll need a new housekeeping service. I hate changing this kind of service... it takes a long while for me to build up enough trust to allow someone essentially unrestricted access to our home, yet we can't afford to be there for supervision either. The alternative is simply to vacuum our own floors, scrub our own bathtubs, dust our own stuff, etc.; while the savings of $$$ is appealing, the scrubbing of bathtubs is not.
Oh, my sad life is so full of trauma. Woe is me (esp. since Kent will not scrub bathtubs).
