Merry Maids

They're coming. Deep cleaning. That's what they call it. How deep can they get? The owner lives in the next neighborhood from us...he probably has the cleanest house in town. I wonder what ours will look like when they leave. They're coming. They don't smoke, listen to ipods, or talk on the phone. Those are their rules. They don't open anything that is closed (closets, cabinets) which leads me to wonder: can you open something if it is not closed? I like the name "Merry Maids." It sounds very Disney, and very 1950's. I loved the 50's, the decade of my childhood. The maidens riding in our car said "he looks just like Perry Como." They were actually the high school girls in my mama's Sunday School Class. Merry Maids. The time has come.
