Things That Bang

Yet again I am maidless. I had to let go my recent maid since her family was nursing a relative with tuberculosis. The girl had taken ten days off without giving me any adequate reason. The lady who had given guarantee for the girl came over and told me that my maid's sister in law had got her brother from the village to the city for treatment and he was staying with them.

I obviously had to let her go. An old one who had stopped working on her own at our place dropped over. But she is one of those stubborn ones who has to be instructed ten times before the chore is done.

There is trouble in paradise; I need help!!
