A man builds a fine house; and now he has a master, and a task for life: he is to furnish, watch, show it, and keep it in repair, the rest of his days.
--Ralph Waldo Emerson

When you reach senior citizen level, as I have (choke!), you start to consider "last." For example, I hope this is the "last" car I need to buy. Obviously, one never knows if that "last" will hold up. Life goes on. My late friend, "Hat," lived over 100 years. When asked his secret to longevity, he said, "I just haven't died yet."
I am working on a major-league "last." I have cleaned our house for the last time. I am just going to let it get filthier and filthier. Just kidding! I am on a quest for a cleaning person. Given my ongoing physical recovery from back and leg issues, cleaning this week has been very tiring and left me quite sore. I do like the end result, but this is not the sort of stress I want to put my body through. I say that if I keeled over when house-cleaning, I would be pissed off for eternity! Also, because I have been cleaning houses since I was around ten years old, I'd venture that sixty years of that is more than enough.
The search is ON!
