Did You Ever Clean Out The Home Of A Deceased Person...

Tweet

And Actually Have Fun Doing It? LOL! :) I am not a professional house cleaner, but I have wielded a mop and dust rag in my earlier days... So when one of my Clients passed away last week and her family asked me to take care of her home, I figured that this would be a job that I could do, despite the creepy-ness of going through all of the worldly belongings of someone that you have known for years. The fun started when I decided to work in the kitchen and I checked the fridge and freezer first, of course, so that I could discard any spoiled goods... To my surprise, my deceased client actually had a great sense of a Foodie when it came to stocking her pantry, and soon I was marveling at tins of Beluga caviar, handmade cheese's and dinner crackers... She also had a fine selection of wines and spirits and really cool collection of art on the walls of this old house! Yes, the place was fantastically filthy, but at least I was going to have an excellent Lunch and Dinner, with a fun time of browsing great art thrown in the mix! :) I was surpringly cheerful and energetic when I left the house for the evening, and despite the additional bugbites that I recieved, I had a big smile on my face at the thought of that crazy old lady and her love of the Good Life! :) Her niece told me yesterday that her aunt really did like me, inspite of the trashmouthing that her illness drove her to, and that made me feel really good for myself, but I had a bit if sadness for the family, if only she had let them be closer to her, it might have made a difference... No, I will not miss her, in fact it was a relief that she has Crossed... Leaving all of this wonderful stuff behind for me to enjoy, made up for all of the bitter b*tchiness in one second!
