...met:

the Marilyn Monroe of the cleaning agent shelf.

Sounds snidely, is meant as an ode to a wonderful woman.
Working all her life her ass off and her back in pieces (mostly cleanin), caring for her family and everybody who needed in this foreign country and despite of so many pitfalls in her life she alsways is one of the warm-heartest, humblest and and deepest souls that I know.

Now after the death of her mother and another separation, with her daughters and grandchildren around and a garden to care for she slowly realises that there's a 'her' in her life. And she does it bloody well!

I'm glad I met her again today.
