MARCH - DEDICATED TO HOME
Today 'Migel The Master' has finished repairing the damage done to the living room ceiling and a wall due to a water leak coming down from somewhere above my home. His work is amazing because he's not greedy, is a perfectionist and takes pride in his work. He's also fast because he knows what he's doing, doesn't mess around, and has a loving wife waiting for him at home.

He cleaned up very well, but there's still a thin, unavoidable layer of sheetrock sanding dust everyplace it could land. That's okay. I plan to clean and polish all surfaces, and of course, it's better to do it AFTER the repairs. I bought two new pair of Latex- free cleaning gloves.
While waiting for a layer of paint to dry, Migel put together my new lightweight Oreck XL commercial vacuum cleaner. I had managed part of the assembly, but he did it in a matter of minutes and gave me instructions on how to use. it. In the past I had given him my previous heavy duty Oreck, still great, but it had become too heavy, and hurt my lower back. Members of his family are using it.

On Monday, Erik is arriving to clean all of the windows. 6 windows, double planes. 24 window planes all together. I love clean windows, even if there's not much to look at but asphalt, traffic, concrete and tall buildings.
I may be poor, but I can be clean.
