9. If I do manage to find a new job

I won't have time to clean while I look for her replacement - otherwise I would. She's been trying to grow her business so that she has enough clients that she can have "crews" a multiple houses even if she's not there - and that's been happening more lately. For that reason alone I was already planning to get rid of her once I could find a replacement but now I can't commit to a replacement. I may tell her that I'm done with her no later than end of December so it is hanging like a sword of Damocles over her head! On the other hand, I could drop it on her on December 15th!

I'm the only client she has who gives her gives her the week closest to Xmas "off" but still pays her for it and sometimes in the summer, too. When she told me that I counted with "well, I'm a socialist" (although doing so is actually probably more Marxist in some ways that socialist but she wouldn't know that) so that she would associate "being treated well by an employer" with "that evil socialism label."
