Five Reasons for Cleaning Day
Living in a clean home makes life pleasant. Cleaning Day is something to do every week so that the dirt doesn’t pile up. Cleaning Day is not a project day that is done when you can’t take the dirt anymore. It is most effective as a regular occurrence. Cleaning Day is when you take care of things that get dirty and put off a smell and unpleasant texture. Things such as: dirty floors underfoot, dirty tables and counters, dirty bathrooms, and dirty sinks.
A Cleaning Day will bring peace to your week. When you have a plan for your cleaning, you’re prepared ahead of time and you’re ready to do the work. You have your lists ready, and your supplies on hand. Your favorite music keeps you moving, and you finish it off with your favorite candle or essential oils diffusing.
Free Time: you are ready for friends and family or an enjoyable weekend alone with books. When you have freed up time in life by keeping things consistently clean, you are prepared for anything.
