I once heard of a lady who reminded her DH to leave some $$$ on the table once a week to pay for the housekeeper, which he did. Turns out, SHE was the housekeeper, lol!

I guess what I'm thinking is to just go ahead and have the lady come over for part of a day and fix a few meals. In other words, its easier (sometimes) to ask forgiveness than ask permission.

Sneeky lil devil, aren't I?
