Sherri – I enjoyed this post, it made me laugh… I can picture you ‘moving quickly’… believe me with a 6 & 7 year old my home is less than Martha Stewart-like. I just thought I would share my new-found instrument for moving quickly and staying focused: its called an egg-timer!! Yup… I set it for whatever amount of time I feel is reasonable. ie: 10 mins per room, and fly like a bat out of hell. Fold laundry, make a bed, run over the floor, etc… you get the pic. Its just that on real busy days, its too easy for me to start cleaning drawers or sorting… some days I just want to ‘get ‘er done’… and get a work out at the same time, I might add! Thanks for your post. I enjoyed it!

Have been enjoying these articles and snippets about managing the household mess etc.

after years of cleaning my own home and the homes of others, there are a few items that I would not be without:

1. A long handled dustpan and brush
2. a broom to scrub the bathroom and shower recess
3. a ‘clean’ mop for mopping out the bottom of the fridge and hard to get out corners in the kitchen cupboards.
4. a second toilet brush (DEFINITELY NOT FOR THE TOILET) but to use in other difficult places where a long handled brush might be more efficient.

I have also found that a dish washing brush in the bathroom and laundry is a must for scrubbing around taps and fittings. The second toilet brush can also be used for this purpose.

I have found too that cream cleansers in the bathroom and laundry can help encourage mould if not washed away properly.

Anything that helps you work smarter not harder is a must.

Cheers

Clarrie.

What a great guide. Pretty much describes my quick cleaning process. That box or bag of stuff gathered pre-visits is a little secret my friend and I share–our problem is remembering to retrieve it out of the closet we’ve stowed it in afterward and get it put away. We are notorious for having random bags of “stuff” (usually papers) hanging around too long after the quick clean-up.

Looking forward to exploring more of your posts.
