I’m not one to waste money on unnecessary expenses. I don’t
use credit cards, so I don’t pay interest. I don’t smoke. I don’t drink alcohol,
coffee or even soda. (Honestly, how do people afford that?) We eat out twice weekly,
and don’t add delivery service payments to our bill. It’s been nearly seven
years since my last mani-pedi. My one splurge is a monthly cleaning service. We
declutter before their visit, so the house doesn’t look like an episode of “Hoarders.”
When they arrive, we put pets in their kennels and get out of their way. An
hour or two later, we return to a spotless house! There have been a few mishaps. Once, a new girl used a razor to remove a dried spill from a dishwasher door. Another
scratched a shower enclosure with steel wool, and one of them knocked over a
lamp. Yesterday, they accidentally unplugged my hydroponic garden. I don’t
care. It’s all still worth it.
