Spring Clean Up!!!!

Hi All,

With Spring officially arriving on Friday - tomorrow - at 6:45pm - now is a good time to blog about 'Spring cleanup'.Oh wait...its going to snow tomorrow...how can it be the beginning of Spring when we're going to get about 2"-4" of snow? 

Crazy weather...that's all.  In any event, folks can still get a jump on their spring cleaning by reading the rest of this blog entry.  And when you are done with the spring cleaning you can go to the next job on your list of things to do - like taxes...

Some articles and ideas that will make your Spring cleanup faster, easier and less unpleasant.   Click on this link from About.com titled 'Spring Cleaning For Lawns and Landscaping'.   And from the ever present Martha Stewart comes this entry in the form of a checklist - specifically a 'Spring Cleaning Checklist'. Wikipedia even got into the act with an article on Spring cleaning. 

A fairly well known name is house maintenance/repair/upkeep is HouseBeautiful.  This next link comes from their site and includes '13 Spring-Cleaning Tips'.

Believe it or not, Vogue has also gotten into the act as well with an article titled, 'Spring Cleaning: 8 Beautiful Items to Help You Tidy Up'.

And, finally, click on this link from Imperfect Homemaking for a 'Thorough Spring Cleaning Checklist'.  The author of the site - Kelly - has organized the cleaning by rooms of the house: foyer, bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, dining room, living room/family room/playroom, laundry room, stairwells, outside the house and reminders.  A printable version of this Spring Cleaning Checklist can be found by clicking on this link!

Here's to fast and easy cleaning!

Clean Most Anything

Hi All,

Well, now that Spring has sprung (proof of that is Mother's Day - which we celebrated yesterday), its time for some Spring cleaning. Doesn't everyone like the smell of clean bathroom or a freshly washed sink?  Just imagine a bedroom filled with the scent of fresh air and crisp new sheets when you go to bed!

Now isn't that a pleasant way to go to bed or to walk into a kitchen?  Yep - I thought so.

So - without further ado, you might want to click on this link for How to Clean Stuff.

The site is very easy to navigate with a long list of Cleaning Guides on the right side of the webpage.  Cleaning Guide topics include Automotive, Clothing and Fabrics, Floor and Carpet,House, Kitchen and Bath, Outdoors, People and Pets,  and Things You Own.

Finally, click here for the sites' blog - its interesting, helpful and pretty frequently updated. 

Enjoy the site - here's to keeping clean and staying dirt-free.  As if that can ever happen :)

Regards,
Stu
