Good one!
Thank you for your valuable list! I’m NOT much of a “cleaner” but your list was like a light-bulb moment for me! LOTS of places I would never think of….like I said….I’m not much of a “cleaner”! I’m going to get started as soon as I finish breakfast. Thanks again.
Thanks so much for sharing Jeanette! I love your enthusiasm, you’re motivating me to get started in my own house too… Lord knows I haven’t cleaned all of the places on my own list hahaha
