It is wonderful when you have a fairy godmother in the shape of your domestic help. She does not just clean but she solves my problems, she seems to have a solution for everything. At the week-end my son informed me that we had a leaky cable to the shower. It was not so bad but water was spraying when it was in use and being Sunday there was not very much you could organise. I found some strong sticky tape to cover the hole, but not the solution. Today Lucia arrived to do the weekly chores in my apartment. As she has a solution for everything, and I really did not want to call the plumber, which would cost a couple of hundred francs wheh he would enter, I asked her.

No problem and she said a new shower attachment would be cheaper, so she took her car and visited the store. About an hour later she arrived with the new attachement. They even had 40% reduction as a special offer and in five minutes the new shower head was attached. What a great person she is. I was so glad. My stars were no longer crosed and in a straight line (figuratively speaking of course). She then proceded to repair my bathroom cabinet door with her quick “second” glue and now everything is under control.

When you have a Lucia, you have no problems.

Next week she will be applying her podiatristic talents on my feet. I do not think there is anything this lady cannot do.
