The 4th week in March is National Spring Cleaning Week. In fact, yesterday we put all the snowmen decorations away!

We usually put them up after the snow disappears but enough is enough. The experts have their advice and I have mine. I call it Glenn's Guide (GG) to Spring Cleaning.

Experts: When you dust, start at the top and work down.

GG: Save time and money on feather dusters. Give your cat some extra cat nip and have it use it's tails.

Experts: Wash the walls from the bottom up to avoid streaking.

GG: Fill up your super soaker with Windex. For added fun, hand a super soaker to all of your kids. You'll save time and it's a family bonding experience that the kids will actually enjoy.

Experts: Wash the knickknacks instead of just dusting them.

GG: Put the knickknacks in a load of laundry....with nothing else. It's one way to get new knickknacks for the house.

Experts: Open a box of baking soda to absorb odors in your refrigerator.

GG: To keep the kids out of the refrigerator thus saving energy and food, keep your dirty socks in there. Added odor will keep the food I want to eat in the frig.

The key to Spring Cleaning is not having to do it yourself. This is my tried and true method.

Several years ago, I offered to help with the Spring Cleaning. By the time I was done, I was asked to never, ever help again. Ahh, the Master Planner strikes again.
