The past couple of weeks have been insane. I’ve realized that I really need something in my life. (Don’t get all excited, I’m not talking about a baby). What I need is help. Unfortunately, there’s no one type of help I can put my finger on.
I suppose an assistant would be about the right term, but said assistant would have so many duties! I need someone to pick a business card company for me. I need someone who could do dishes and clean up my kitchen, but not require me to clean ahead of cleaning. I need somone who could organize my house for a couple of hours so that I could then vacuum (because of course, with the Dyson now in my life, I WANT to do the vacuuming, I just don’t have time to clean the floor enough to be able to vacuum). I need somone to plan out my day for me and keep me on task.
None of these duties would be every day of course. Some days I’m very capable of staying on track. Other days I’m very capable of cleaning the kitchen. But there are so many days that I need one thing or the other and I certainly can’t write a job description for any one thing.
I need someone for maybe 5 hours a week, who would do whatever I needed done during those 5 hours. Think I could find someone like that who’d work for English Muffins or a loaf of bread? Yeah, probably not.
