My Mom Rocks!

Yesterday, Richie's parents left to go back to PA and Richie and I both had to work. I looked forward to going home and just relaxing on the couch after a fun filled last 2 weeks. When I pulled down my street my Mom's car was in my driveway- This is nothing new, although she usually calls and tells me she is coming over. I walked into the house and she had cleaned from top to bottom, did laundry, cleaned the sheets on the bed, towels, mopped the floor, vacuumed, dusted and the place looked amazing! She knew I wanted to come home and relax and knew I would not be able to since there was so much to do. I love her- what a great gift she gave me. Plus, we may have people at our house tonight for New Years and it all needed to be done yesterday. I am so excited.

A friend on my Mom's had their house broken into: The husband got home first and called the wife who was still at work:
Husband: Our house has been broken into, they jimmied the back door.
Wife: OMG- what did they take?
Husband: Nothing
Wife: What?
Husband: They cleaned- the whole house has been cleaned!!!
Wife:?????
Evidently, their neighbor had hired a house cleaning service and told them that they would leave the back door open. The cleaning service went to the wrong house, jimmied the back lock open, came in and cleaned the whole house! Can you imagine?
My Mom and I had a joke about wishing that would happen to us. Every time we would walk into the house we would say--Darn, the cleaning lady forgot to come today!
Well, my cleaning lady showed up yesterday and I am so grateful-
First thing on my list for the New Year- Go help my Mom clean up her house from top to bottom-
