To have a cleaning plan or not to have a cleaning plan?



😁😁😁


As it is with most desired outcomes in life's trajectory, a plan ensures the likelihood of good success. The saying that he [or she😊] who fails to plan, plans to fail is ever so trite even in attending to our own day to day house cleaning tasks or chores (or what ever acceptable term we would love to call it]

Apologies for the major hiatus! We have been silent for too long! No worries... we are back by God's grace !!! 

Okk… back to the need for a plan even in cleaning. 

You may ask why?! why do I need to have a plan for cleaning too? Simply put, you need a cleaning plan to ensure productivity and functionality (in other words, it aids living well).

One means to conquering the notion of cleaning house, is through a schedule. Guess what, it doesn't have to be elaborate- it can be a simple list written down list in pencil or tabularized list (typed out in exciting colours). What ever the case is, a schedule is a step in the right direction.

With your own properly conducted house assessment, you create a list (please note that its bound to be different from your friend's or neighbour's ). 

A categorization of the lists into Daily to dos, Weekly to dos and (moving a bold step further) monthly to dos helps to clearly view chores in order of priority.

Welldone!!! you are doing great! Next step is to put a timeline- say 60-75minutes. This helps to ensure timeliness and not expending your whole day on cleaning (ever heard of speed cleaning?! to await more snippets on itπŸ˜‰)
Remember that chores are never-ending so be encouraged to stick to the timeline and let tomorrow's task stay as what it is-for tomorrow!😏

After all the aforementioned is adhered to, our advise to you is to Just Do It!!! Get head on with the plan then the tasks! 

You deserve a clean milieu! Refuse to be overwhelmed! Keep smilingπŸ˜‰πŸ˜€

PS: More options on a cleaning schedule to be discussed next week

Bebugs...(Yikes!)

Are you aware that bed bugs (climex lectularis) and the 'tropical bed bugs' (climex hemipterus) can infest any type of human living quarters and may not only be found in housing and short duration accomodation such as hostels and hotels, but also in cinemas, buses/trucks, police cells and holding areas. These organisms are attracted by exhaled carbondioxide (CO2) and body heat and not just by dirt. They feed on blood, not waste, so in short the cleanliness of their environment has an effect on the control of bedbugsz but does not eradicate them... Be informed!

Cleaning It All...

When you are standing in a room and wondering where to begin . . . start from the top. Sounds basic, but it is a fool proof trick to cleaning well. When we are cleaning/dusting/scrubbing/etc we should always start with the top. Dust the tops of your window sills first then do the windows and finish up with the bottom or window ledge. Why? you may ask. As you clean, the dirt and dust particles are floating around and tend to float downward. So if we start from the top you will have to opportunity to 'grab' them all and get rid of them. Things to remember about Top Down Cleaning: 1) When cleaning a large space do all of the dusting first: A) Ceiling Fans and corner cob webs B) Tops of window blinds, blinds and window sills C) Tops of all other flat surfaces in room. 2) After vacuuming/cleaning furniture THEN vacuum/mop the floor 3) As you finish cleaning, put away the products you use. By the time you are finished the entire room will be done and you won...
