I love my cleaning lady. She even cleans things that I have not even noticed that they needed it.

I love the swifter dust wands. I have three bathrooms and I finally (after 23 years) bought enough duplicates of cleaning supplies to keep a set in each bathroom. It really saves some time. But, I wasn't a great housekeeper before I started quilting either, so can't blame that.

Good idea - will have to use. I do the dishes at night when watching prime time tv, every commercial I do as much as I can (how come there is so many for such a family of 3? and an awful lot of long commercials)

My boys (9 yr & 11 yr) are always wanting money for video games or the next R/C toy ... well, my fridge got cleaned for $10 this morning. And, no I don't rent him out. I will rent my 17 yr old out though ...

I don't open my shop or do any quilting on Saturday or Sunday.On Saturdays I do a complete cleaning from top to bottom. Then during the week I can just do a quick clean-up before I start my work day and it only takes about an hour.
