Clearly, I need something else to do.

You know those little quizzes that say,

If you could have any one of these, what would it be:
  • a chauffeur
  • a personal chef
  • a maid
  • a personal trainer

I saw one the other day, and it has stuck in my mind ever since.

My kids aren't totally at the age where all I do is cart them around to sports and various events. Right now, it's just school. So I don't think I would pick the chauffeur.

A personal chef... yeah, it would be nice, but I don't spend too much time in the kitchen that I'm sacrificing in other areas, so I'll pass on the chef.

A maid... now that one I could go for. More specifically, a laundry maid (my sister needs to come over more often, she's crazy and loves doing laundry. I know, crazy.). But, I sort of like things done in my own way -- I'm controlling like that -- that I don't know if I would really want a maid. Plus, I would just need someone to pick up all the junk and put it away. A maid won't do that. Next!

A personal trainer? Ha! If I'm going to hire a personal trainer, I might as well hire a chef, a chauffeur and a maid, because then I would have the time to actually visit the personal trainer. And seriously, carry around an 18-month old, and you won't need a personal trainer.

So, I'm going to add my own option. I want a delivery service.

Someone to deliver my kids to school. And then deliver them back home when school is over.

Someone to deliver my dinner once it is done being prepped and cooked and ready-to-eat.

Someone to deliver to me my fresh, clean and neatly pressed clothes after the laundromat is done with them.

Someone to deliver all my purchases that I have made (preferably over the phone or via Internet) from the grocery store, Wal-Mart, Target and the like.

That's all I need. A delivery service. So, all you entrepreneurial type peeps need to go ahead and start up this business. Right here is your number one customer.

They do have people who do that. It's gonna cost you, though. I suggest a neighbor kid who wants to make a few bucks who can pick up, throw laundry and run the vacuum. Oh, and we will be there in a month.
love,
mom

What you need is a personal asistant!!!

Ok, I think I need your sister to come live with me. I can fulfill all her laundry needs.
