I give up

I've put off cleaning my apartment for weeks now. Every weekend I tell myself I'm going to do it. I never do. I kind of tidy up the kitchen and clean the litter box. That's it.

As pathetic as this may sound for a single person in a one bedroom apartment, I've decided to hire help. I was originally planning to hire a real maid, but I kept thinking I'd still have to tidy up the clutter because she wouldn't know where to put things. Instead I'm hiring my niece. She has cleaned for me once before in my last apartment (even smaller than this one). She's going to do it Thursday night so that it's clean before I leave for Chicago.

Now, if I can just get the laundry done tomorrow. Fluff-n-fold service is really tempting right now.
