Karma works. When we moved here 35 years ago I used to help the elderly
neighbor with his lawn. I cut part of it and helped him with his
ancient riding mower. He passed away and the house was sold to a
younger couple. The past two years Jared has cut my grass and vacuumed
the leaves. He appreciates a good bourbon though.

I've been thinking about a once or twice a month cleaner though. Most
is easy to keep up but the kitchen floor sometimes need more than a
sponge mop.
