After they trashed my house, they cleaned it.
No, seriously. There was Karin running the vacuum cleaner over my carpet while I stared, gape-mouthed.
“It’s like visiting your kid in preschool,” she said cheerily. “When you watch them diligently put all their toys back. Yes, we can do it. We prefer that you not know it.”
They told me I only get the cleaning just this one time because I have a newborn. Next time they trash it, I’m on my own.
I was bummed when they left, but awed at the simplicity of it.
Two women wandered into my life. We produced eight children between us. We became friends. They vacuumed my rug.
I still have to go to work tomorrow, my belly still aches and I’m still losing my mind waiting for Eden to gain some weight.
But my rug is clean, and when I walk by it I smile.
