Well, I don't know about milk, but today our 'true love' will definitely earn some brownie points by providing us with 8 maids. I can totally keep them busy. Think I could trade one in for a handyman and another for a lawn boy???
Today is going to set our 'true love' back a pretty penny though! The going rate for maids around here is $60. Multiply that by 8 and...Well, it is a good thing he has been che...umm I mean, frugal up until now!!
Day 8's tally goes like this:
A partridge in a pear tree - $64.83
Two love birds with all the fixin's - $195.15
Three cornish hens - $7.50
Four calling birds - $130.49
Five golden rings - $695.45
Six geese-a-laying - $20.00
Seven swans-a-swimming - $84.00
Eight maids-a-milking - $480.00
For a 8th day grand total of $1677.42
Our tally so far rings in at $6071.94
Note: Tomorrow's witty insult to the over-commercialism of the Holiday season will be postponed due to the over-scheduling of the Holiday season! We will return to our cheery little song on Sunday.

Lawn boy, or cabana boy? Really, which is more important here: nice lawn or someone waiting to bring you foofy drinks with umbrellas.
