I have a solution to this whole housework BS. This weekend we stayed at a Residence Inn. Get this — not only do they make your beds, clean the bathroom and wash the dishes, they’ll even do your laundry AND go grocery shopping for you! You just check off what you want on a little grocery list and they’ll bring it to you.

Of course like every good thing in life there’s a catch. It would cost us more than a month’s mortgage to stay there for a week, once you throw in taxes and fees. But still. It was a good fantasy.
