Title Edited Text

I woke up to my phone buzzing—Deimantė had already sent a dozen messages. She was in a state about her cleaning prices. 'I'm raising my rates to £20-£21.50 per hour because of rising costs,' she wrote. We went back and forth for ages, 170 messages in all. She told me she only had £200 left for bills last week, so I get why she needs to charge more. She asked if I could help clean offices or wash cars, and we made plans to meet tomorrow to sort out details.

Between messages, Suzana messaged about Anna's birthday party. I'd got the date and time wrong—she corrected me and sent the venue. Then she asked, 'Have you ordered Julia's helmet yet?' I'd completely forgotten. I told her I'd do it right away and ordered it online. She also mentioned the robot vacuum was cleaning the house, which made me smile.

John Taylor texted too. He was buzzing about the football match—halftime 1-0, second leg to come. 'The mighty bantams are doing it,' he said. I replied with a thumbs up, but honestly, I'm still smarting over the car tax dispute. He wants me to pay the remaining £46, but I refuse. It's been dragging on for days.

I finally left the house just before 1pm. I made a quick stop at Harold Lambert Court—can't even remember why, just something I needed to drop off. Then I swung by TLC for a few minutes to check on something. After that, I ended up at Best-One. I spent over an hour and a half there, just wandering the aisles and thinking. I don't know why I stayed so long—maybe I was hoping to run into someone, or just killing time.

Back home in the evening, I picked up my phone again. Deimantė was still messaging, Suzana had sent a photo of the robot vacuum doing its thing, and John was still on about the match. I replied to all of them, but my mind was elsewhere. I'd driven Grandma Janice to Birmingham Airport yesterday for her 17:40 flight, and today felt like an anti-climax. Just the usual mess of messages and errands.

Message Day

Deimantė Kavaliauskaitė

Deimantė sent price increase messages to multiple cleaning clients, raising her hourly rate to £20–£21.50 (and £50 per visit for Jack) due to rising costs. She later shared client responses, including acceptance from Anna and Laura, but noted tensions with Gale (who questioned the rate) and Anastasija (who said salaries aren't rising). The conversation also touched on plans to clean offices and wash cars, and they agreed to meet the next day, with a call scheduled for 6:30.

Message Day

Suzana Janachkova

User sent a corrected birthday party invitation for Anna on 20 June 2026 (1–3pm at Play Valley) after the contact suggested removing "Sophia" and including RSVP to Mum. The contact asked if a helmet for Julia had been ordered; user admitted forgetting and promised to order immediately. Later, user confirmed Anna was asleep, then reported that the robot vacuum had cleaned everywhere and learned the map again, except the utility and downstairs toilet (to be taught next time).
