“There is this lovely Phillipino lady that comes to the house twice a week for about three hours. I live alone, so she fixes the bed and does a bit of cleaning. I call her a sponge lady, because she also helps me with showering. I don’t know how she does it, but she never has a bad day, and she’s always smiling and joking with me! The other day she said while she was helping me take a shower ‘Don’t be getting too excited now!’ and I said to her, ‘Just be careful lady!’ This became a sort of weekly conversation routine between us.”
