Cleaning Your House

Cleaning Your House

As I was writing the post on being in a funk.

It got me to thinking about the other areas of your life being in a funk affects.

One of those areas is cleaning your house.

The house may be in order.

But when you're in a funk you may miss somethings.

When you work a lot of hours you have to make to time for cleaning your house.

I came across this article about cleaning your house in an hour.

 "When it comes to cleaning fast, the key is to "have a system, move quickly and never go back to a room," says Andre Lewis, manager of Alpha Living, a green cleaning service in New York City."

Source  Shine-Yahoo- Clean Your House in Less Than an Hour

The article talks about four zones when cleaning your house.

Zone One when cleaning your house is the bedrooms.

Spending about 10 minutes per bedroom cleaning.

Start by changing the linen and disposing in the dirty clothes bind.

Make the bed.

Clean off the dresser and night stand of clutter.

Dust the furniture including lamps and coasters.

Vacuum the room with long strokes.

Zone Two when cleaning the house is the bathroom 

You should spend about 9 minutes cleaning this room.

Start by spraying or sprinkling cleaning products in the sink, toilet, and bathtub and/or shower.

Scrub the toilet and wipe off the outside.

Clean the mirror in a circular motion.

Wipe down the tub or shower.  The pre-soak should prevent you from having to do a full scrub.

Pour some cleaners on the floor and mop.

Zone Three when cleaning your house is the kitchen.

You should spend 12 minutes cleaning this room.

Load the dish washer and start the cycle.

No dish washer run a sink full of water and do the dishes.

Clear the counter top.  Put items back where they belong.

Pre-treat any stains on the counter top or stove.

Wipe down the countertop and brush any crumbs on the floor.

Wipe down the stove, refrigerator and other appliances.

Swipe and mop the floor on your way out the room.

Zone Four when cleaning your house is the living room.

Put away all the clutter (remotes) and neatly stack magazines.

Dust all the furniture from top to bottom.  Don't forget the blinds.

Clean your glass surfaces to a sparkle.

Vacuum your way out the room.

Now your finished cleaning your house in a hour.

I tried this after I wrote this blog.

Cleaning your house in a hour is possible.

I would only do this is three weeks out the month.

That fourth or fifth week you should do a through cleaning of your house.

Have you tried cleaning your house in an hour???
