Aloha Friday #100

Filed under aloha friday, daily life, memes

Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.

In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!

My question is:

If you could do or have one thing to make your life easier, what would it be?

For me, I think I’d have someone come in and clean my home once a week. With my girls around, it probably wouldn’t last for very long but it sure would be nice.

    Being Independently wealthy. Not worrying about money would be fantastic!

    Aside from winning the lotto and not having to worry about budgets, the biggest thing would be a new house. Would cure a lot of worries and make things easier.

    Hmmmm….two of me???
    No…my life would be so much easier if I got house organized. Not being able to find things and moving clutter from one spot to another spot is like a dominoe effect with my mental and emotional well being.

    Ok I have been sitting on your blog for while tonight. I have been waiting for this one! Congrats on your 100!

    I would have a maid. I hate doing dishes so they would specialize in dish washing!

    I am with Jennifer. I would love to have moola. If I had tons of money, or at least a little bit more, a lot of pressure would be taken off my shoulders. I know they say money can’t buy happiness, but those are usually the people that already have lots of money. Aloha and take care.

    Congrats on 100 weeks of Aloha Friday! :)

    Hmm, I would have to say either a new job or some other financial situation where I could get off of unemployment. It’s causing a lot of stress, not knowing what we’re going to do once unemployment runs out.

    I am definitely not a money grubber, but with things so tight right now, it would have to be money. Please visit me, money fairy!!

    besides finding out the secret to making my money tree grow in the back yard???
    But if that is not possible, I would take someone coming in and doing the deep cleaning my house needs maybe once or twice a week

    I’m going to have to go with financial too. Being debt-free and having a bit more financial security would really ease things. I’m not talking wealthy, but just having a little bit more wiggle room.

    I would like to have all our bills paid off so we can concentrate on just enjoying life. It seems as soon we pay everything off we rack up more bills – It just never ends

    Being wealthy would be nice but for the short time I would like my home to be organized so I can be a better CFO (Chief Family Officer).

    Donetta says:

    Wow look at you girl. It has been a long time from my last visit.

    I think I would just love a set of strong arms to follow me and be at my beck and call to tend to tasks for me so I could get more accomplished that I want to do. Someone to throw the pick ax in the garden and stand there and lift things when I am ready. Someone who never questioned why I want it done just did it and accepted an explianation If and When I chose to give it. :) HA!

    That and the ability to do some travel and have a bit of coverage for a little expense. Would just love to see my husbands heart happy with it. It would be nice to take the kids around the country and introduce them properly to history.

    I would want a housekeeper/nanny at my disposal whenever I need her. Have unlimited funds would be nice but a housekeeper/nanny would REALLY come in handy.

    My first instinct was to say a housekeeper since the house cleaning and money are the only things DH and I argue about. But I decided I’m going say being independently wealthy…then I could just hire a housekeeper and then some!

    One thing that would make my life easier right now would definitely be cash to pay off the bills. Things are very tight and it would be nice to not worry about where the mortgage payment is going to come from.

    Yup, gotta go with money too. A steady flow of my own income! Then I’d pay for the maid and a babysitter (on occasion) :D
