12. I have a cleaning service which is often just one person. She brings her own supplies.

So I don't have to buy, replace, store a mop (altho I have one just for in between spills).

I also supply laundry detergent. But that's it.

I love the arrangement and I love the gal who runs it and cleans my house and washes our clothes.

We have her only twice a month and it's fine.
