Auntie Dearest, I hope your husband and you spent a wonderful anniversary yesterday. Your relationship/marriage is an inspiration to me! Have many more!

A term my mother always used may be useful to you, when trying to explain why you clean before the maids arrive. You are not really cleaning so much as picking things up and putting them away. Every Thursday, my mother would remind us, "Pick up your room, so Rita can clean." Rita was our "girl," the slightly racist term used in the South for the maid who came once a week to clean the white folks' house. So, you are "picking up" the house, so the maids can clean the underlying dirt. And before you get all Yankee P.C. on my ass, you should know that Rita was an important part of my childhood. She made the best pimento cheese sandwiches ever. The fact that I ate mine at the table, and she ate hers in the laundry room? Meaningless.
