Seth's going to ask her for it today when she's there.

Cool! I just spoke to her and she is going to drop it off on Monday. It wasn't as if I didn't trust her, I just didn't get the key back and that bothered me.

Yup. I understand. I think she's a well-meaning person... you two obviously just had bad karma or something...Maybe your auras were clashing. Orange with purple is just not flattering.

Gotcha. Besides I am SO happy with Estela (who is making my kitchen sparkle right now) and I wouldn't have fired Donna even though I was unhappy with her cleaning for months, so her little mental episode really helped me get out of a situation I was less than thrilled with.

I feel bad though because I heard that not only did Esti also get someone new another neighbor of mine also fired her. It had nothing to do with me, they did this on their own. It makes me feel like less of a schmuck.

It almost makes me wonder if I'm settling for less than I need to.

Hey if it works for you, no need to fix anything. I am certainly not trying to take business away from Donna, I just want certain things to be done well and no matter how many times I told her to do things better she would nod her head and nothing would change. In the end it was her attitude as much as her cleaning that got to me. We've known our current cleaning person for years in another capacity. I wasn't sure that she would be up to the task, but she really is, and when I point things out to improve, she improves, with a smile.
