Spring Cleaning Challenge - Day 4 Doors

I am glad to say that I am back on track! How are you doing with this challenge? Only one more post for this week and you will have the overall house part done! Way to go! These can be some of the hardest and longest cleaning jobs.  Stick with me and don't give up!

Personal Story: I cleaned my windows yesterday and found out that they have 3 parts to them (Plus a screen) in summary there are 4 sides of glass that I look through each day, but I can only access 1 (the one on the inside) without tearing apart the window. So with much sadness my "clean" windows aren't clean! 

 CHALLENGE:
Wipe down all of the doors in your house. Front and back, sides, and the top. Don't forget about closet doors, outside doors and especially the doorknobs! You can use warm soapy water, just warm water, or wood polish.

EXTRA:
If you haven't already, wipe down all of the light switches and plate covers. The top ledge gets especially dirty.

What is your least favorite Spring Cleaning job? Does your family help you clean?

42 Questions To Ask Your Spouse On Valentine's Day

If you and your spouse were on the Newlywed game show... would you win? My husband and I are going to a couple's retreat next month and decided to get a head start on it by brushing up on our newlywed gameshow questions. We actually did pretty well the first time through, but we keep giving each other pop quizzes to keep the answers fresh in our minds. Below I've made a list of common couples questions that you and your spouse might find fun to ask each other. 1) What is your spouse's all time favorite movie? 2) What would your spouse request as their "last meal"? 3) What is your spouse's favorite pastime? 4) What percentage of housework would your husband say he does? 5) What flavor of cake did you have at your wedding? 6) What is your spouse's ideal date night? 7) Excluding people, what would your spouse say is their most prized possession? 8) At what specific sport or game will you wife say she is better than you? 9) What is your spouse...

Spring Cleaning Challenge- Day 21, Shower

I hope you had a wonderful weekend, celebrating Easter with family and friends. This week we will be focusing on the bathrooms. (I hope you don't have very many) Because I'm not getting this post out till late morning you might consider swapping today's task and tomorrow's. If you get up early and have already taken a shower you might not want to clean the shower today. Instead you can jump ahead to tomorrow and clean the shower curtain and liner. Then tomorrow morning when you take a shower you can clean it. Do whatever works best with your schedule. CHALLENGE: Clean you shower(s) till it sparkles. Here is a link back to the post about shower cleaner. It really does work the best; It makes my shower tiles sparkle! I find that taking a shower while cleaning it is the easiest way. If you have multiple showers, you might consider not getting soaking wet every time, or asking a spouse or child to help you. Take a scrub brush to work on grout mold, and a sponge to wipe ...
