I step out of the shower and wipe the steam from the mirror. I marvel at how clean and organized everything is as I reach for my hairbrush. It’s not just the bathroom, but the entire house, top to bottom. Mari’s been coming by after work every day to make sure that I’m eating a healthy dinner, and then she spends about an hour cleaning up here and there.
I can’t get her to stop cleaning, and after a while it’s a little embarrassing having her do it every time, so I’ve been in the habit of cleaning up right before she gets here. As a result, the house is fabulously organized and I’m treating Mari to another lunch today as a thanks for all her efforts to help me stay afloat.
I think about our lunch outing as I pull my hair into a ponytail and smooth out the front of my floral print summer
