Well, its a snowy cold weekend in February. How come the shortest month feels the longest?
One of the things I like to do during this long feeling dull month is to knock out a bunch of spring cleaning,
Now, I’m not saying do a marathon. Just tackle a project here and there. By the time spring actually gets here, you’ll be pretty well done and you can get out and play!
Here is the Spring and Fall Cleaning Checklist from Secret Confessions of a Clean Freak –
Spring and Fall Cleaning:
_____ Wash silk plants.
_____ Clean figurines and knick-knacks
_____ Clean shelves

These are great tips. I love a good spring cleaning. I clean out the pantry, clean the carpets, clean out the closets and swap winter clothes for summer clothes, and more, and it just feels so good to have a clean, fresh home! I will be sure to follow this lost when I start cleaning.

Your checklist will definitely help make Spring and Fall not feel so long that I have to count the days until they are over. This will give me something to do and give me an excuse to hopefully hire some carpet cleaners near me so I can finally get this dander out of my carpet once and for all…hopefully. Thank you so much again for this! I can already see it making my days go by so much faster.
