Things You Probably Forget to Clean

Filed Under: CLEAN

I might have mentioned before that cleaning isn’t exactly my favourite thing to do. I like for my house to be clean. On occasion, I find some satisfaction in getting some tasks done. But for the most part, I just wish it would all take care of itself so that I can make art or go on a day trip or kick back and watch Netflix. I do try to keep up with it as much as I can as I go. Standing in the kitchen waiting for the ground beef to brown – might as well wipe down the counters. Washed my hands – might as well give the sink a quick cleaning while I’m there. But I do have a list of things that can often get overlooked; not just by me, but according to studies, by most people. 

Pro tip: Make a list of the things you probably forget to clean. You can use mine for inspiration or keep a note pad on the fridge and add to it as you think of things. Divide that list according to the room it pertains to and write out an index card of often neglected chores for each room. Put those in handy spots in each room. Next time you’ve got a few minutes to spare, take a look at the card and tackle 1 or 2 chores on that list.
