When I think of the term spring cleaning, it always conjures up the image of cleaning windows. Never an eagerly anticipated task, it's no wonder the job was relegated to once a year. Today's pull out styles make window cleaning a much easier job to tackle any time of the year. Thank goodness for that.
Spring cleaning has its origins in many cultures. Some clean their homes from top to bottom in anticipation of a new year. Some sweep away any bad luck that has befallen the previous year. Many of us dive into spring cleaning invigorated by the longer days of sunlight, when we're anxious to put the dreariness of winter behind.
Cleaning projects abound at this time of year. Checklists help us make sure we don't forget the forgotten-ceiling fans, refrigerator coils and baseboards to name a few. And that's just the beginning. There's a plethora of outdoor jobs, too.
A freshly-cleaned home is a thing of beauty no matter its size. It just feels good to look out a perfectly clear window or admire the shine on the floor. What could be better?
A clean
and organized home.
