I saw a sign in a second-hand/antique shop that I really liked. Dust is a Country Accent! I should have purchased it because it wasn't there the next time.

On New Years Day, I always defrost the freezer. Set the boxes of food outside in the cold while I tackle it.

It’s a good idea to replace a toothbrush every 3 months, so I do that the first day (or about) of January, April, July and Oct. January and July are my “6 month jobs” - for instance tip the mattress off and vacuum good under the bed. Helps me remember when I last did it.

Thanks for this thread and conversation. It made me giggle. I learned from an online site meant to help those of us with "messy" genes, to do the kitchen sink every night, no dishes left in it and sink washed and wiped down. Then to never leave the bathroom in the morning without cleaning it. A quick swish in the bowl, wipe the counter, mirror and sink makes the room ready for you and any guest that may come by. Using a shower squeegee helps a lot. Once I started this routine, I leaned by experience to keep the counters clear of stuff. What a HUGE difference it makes to keep cleaning simple. Now I should heed my own advise and clear the island in the kitchen. Too much stuff! That is another thing I learned. Eliminate stuff. If you don't have room for it on a shelf or behind a door then something needs to go. KISS is a wonderful and very freeing thing. Very few of the items I got rid of have I ever needed!

I figure God made dust before vacuum cleaners. I may as well admire God's handiwork for a while before removing it.Amen to that!!!!!

I have a sign on the front porch:

Welcome to our Home.
You may Touch the dust,
but please don't Write in it.

The main thing I do regularly is leave a check on the counter each week for the cleaning crew. Life is too short to waste time on repetitive, thankless tasks.

According to me deep cleaning project is something which is planned and the cleaning require more hard work to make it neat and tidy...
