Most every year my house cleaner gives me a Christmas present. Usually it's something very nice which I always hope is being regifted as I would feel terrible about her spending that kind of money on me. A couple of years the gifts have been really nice things that I still have and use today. A couple of years the gifts have been things that are so not even close to my taste and/or I have zero use for. I'd really rather she didn't give me anything at all. But, clearly that's not going to happen.

She came in this morning and announced that this year's gift is different because "you have enough stuff" (she's surely got that right!). She's going to cook for me for a week. "I bring everything ... everything ... in containers for you to eat." She does love to cook and has, in the past, brought me things, most of which have been delicious. I'm very delighted about this cooking for me thing. I think 5 days is too many but still. Sweet idea and whew.

My swim was good this morning but I'm ready for my new goggles to arrive today. I rarely toss goggles out so when I lost the pair last week, I grabbed some old ones. They are ones left over from the chlorine days and they are in pretty bad shape. I ordered 2 pair from Amazon. 1 to be shipped 2 day Prime and the other to be shipped later so I get the $1 off ebook/music. Both are coming today - thanks, Amazon!!

I have a swim suit to finish today and then I have to empty the car of all of my shit for the detailing tomorrow. I'm a little anxious about getting home tomorrow after I drop the car off and getting back to pick it up when it is done. First choice is that someone from the detailing place drives me home or close to home but if that doesn't work out, there are several different options for both drop off and pick up. I'm playing it by ear.

But, first there needs to be the excavation of the stuff.

My housecleaner cracks me up always. She's from Bosnian and speaks way better English than I speak Bosnian but still she's missing a lot of words and her accent is very thick. Her daughter often comes with her and is s superb translater but daughter's not here today.

Amira asks me if I like downal tramp. It took 3 times but we got it... Donald Trump. She thinks he will be president because he has so much money but 'ewww his leeps' (she makes her lips into fish lips). "His wife is from Slovinia... how she sleep with him???? Money." She did crackle big time when I asked if she knew her from the old country.

She told me how much she liked my new dining table set. "When I saw it I thought Why she have two? Maybe she get boyfriend??!!!!" Another cackle.

She's really a riot.

I cleaned out the car. I left 4 water bottles and 2 floor mats down by the car but this is the rest...



And people mock the Smart Car because it's too small ... Big enough to hold massive bags o' shit!

I'm hoping I eliminate at least half of this shit and maybe put back into the car a forth of it.
