Coming Clean 2

Until someone out there introduces a universally free household cleaning service, most of us will continue tackling the less-than-thrilling task of cleaning our homes each week.

Still, you can make this routine task more pleasant and, in the process, shave precious moments off your overall cleaning time. 

Start cleaning the lightly soiled bedrooms, dining room, and living room. After you've completed those areas—and with a sense of accomplishment—work your way into the more challenging kitchen and bathroom.
