Weekly cleaning job

A friend of mine had been cleaning houses for people and has recently accepted a secretary job, so she has passed me a couple of her clients (Thank you Iva).  Today was my first day cleaning for the first couple and the plan is for me to go there every Wed. morning to clean.  It took me about an hour longer than it took her but I didn't feel too bad about that since it was my first day & I think that as time goes I will speed up as I get to know the job & the people.  The couple that I am cleaning  for are very nice & I was glad for their patience today as I cleaned for them and got acquainted with the job.  Now the other job that my friend has passed to me is a little less often than that, maybe once per month.  I am looking forward to starting that one also but it will be a little while before I am expected there.  These jobs are exactly what I needed to help us out & to keep my busy through the day while the kids are off at school. I was very nervous this morning & I am very glad that I am done for today and excited for next week (hopefully I can speed things up a bit).
