Clean Home challenge Week 2

This week's clean home challenge, I think, I am successful.
All the laundry is done and put away. Also, I did vacuum clean the place. More than that I used Pledge to dust the surfaces.
Now I am taking some measures to save money on the Hydro, ie the electricity. While cleaning and throwing away unwanted stuff, I came across the energy plan guide I got on the mail and forgotten to put on the fridge for reference. The time of peak power rate time is different than that of summer.

Since the off peak time is from 7 pm to 7 am, I decided to cook either in the evening or in the morning before 7. That also changes my cleaning time. The vacuum cleaning time is either on the weekends or in the off peak time.
For this week, I am glad that there was no dirty dishes in my sink. After finishing the cooking, I am able to clean all the dishes and wipe down the counter tops. Wow!!!! That makes the kitchen clean and nice.
During the week, I used my broom and dust pan to clean the floors, instead of using the vacuum cleaner. The house is looking much better. Thinking of adding some picking up time to the schedule to keep the floors neat.

Clean home Challenge:week 1



This first week  of the challenge went fine. I cleaned my living room. Vaccumed, even under the sofa, love seat and under the TV stand. Took out all the cushions and vacuumed them too. So the furniture is dust free now. The glass and wood surfaces are cleaned with Pledge spray cleaner. I love the lemony smell of it. 
Also, did 3 loads of laundry. 
Not that much crafting though. But I would like to mention about creating a stripped crochet cover for one small Ikea  cushion. 


As a next step, I washed all the bathroom rugs and put them out side to get dry in the sun.

Clean Home Challenge

Since the summer is already around the corner, I am thinking of doing some cleaning and organizing at home. My challenge is to do one thing every week to clear the clutter. So I will keep posting here about my progress.
