My husband and I didn’t have anything planned for today, so I convinced him to help me give the house a thorough cleaning. Usually, we settle for taking care of the superficial stuff such as vacuuming, sweeping, and washing dishes. We hardly ever get down to the nitty gritty (so to speak) and do any deep cleaning, so we were well overdue for something like this.
With the two of us working, it took only about four hours to clean the house from top to bottom. We did everything: cleaned out the oven, microwave and refrigerator in the kitchen; scrubbed the bathtub, polished the bathroom faucets, and sprayed Tilex on the walls in the bathroom; and mopped every exposed floor surface we could find.
I love it when the house is this clean, but I know it won’t last long. I bet by this time next week it’ll feel like this day never happened!
