The cleaning lady comes once every two weeks. It is clearly documented on the calendar. Exchangers  left yesterday. I had it is my mind that I had forgotten to leave a check and I needed to be here early in the morning to drop it off - and then disappear for about 4 hours so she can work unimpeded.

I was up at 6:10, caught the 7:10 commuter train, left the check, and then spent long hours, first at a coffee shop and then at lunch, waiting for 2:30. J. drove in, called me, "no one came!"

So I called. Then I really looked at the calendar. Oh my.
