Daily Cleaning Challenge - Hidden Clutter

Take a look around your living room and see what is hanging around that is really clutter but because you have become so used to it being there you don't see it as clutter. Have you purged those magazines and books lately? How about the videos, dvd's and cd's? Are they strewn in piles all over that because they belong in these rooms you don't see them anymore? Your mission for today is to set your timer for 15 minutes and go after the "hidden" clutter in these rooms. You will be amazed at how much neater the rooms look when you tackle this.

Daily Cleaning Challenge - Trash

Today we are going to go through our living room and pick up any trash that may be laying around. Be sure to look under the couch and other furniture.

Daily Cleaning Challenge - Dressers

Today's mission is to declutter the tops of our dressers. The first
thing to do when decluttering is to throw away anything that is trash.
Those receipts, post it notes, etc that are just claiming space -
toss them!. The next thing is to look at what is left on your dresser
- Do you need it? Do you love it? Do you use it? Do you have
anything on your dresser that needs to be put away someplace else?
Pick up, put away, then Pick up and put in a give away box that you
will donate later.

Daily Cleaning Challenge - Mop

Your mission in the bathroom
is to mop the floor. Now, you can do this with
some hot soapy water and a rag or mop.

Daily Cleaning Challenge - Bathroom Sink

Let's shine our bathroom sinks and
counter tops. Scrub the sink and the faucets, wipe down with Windex.
Take time to wipe down your counter tops and give them a
shine as well.

Daily Cleaning Challenge - Medicine Cabinet

Look into the medicine cabinets and toss the empty
bottles and boxes that are taking up space.
While you are doing this also take a look at the
expiration dates on the medicines that are there. If you have some
that need to get rid of, take care of that as well. Grab a damp
rag and wipe down the shelves.

Daily Cleaning Challenge - Trash

Your mission for today is to clean your bathroom trash can.
Use the tub to fill the can with hot water and add
some general purpose cleaner or dish soap. Let it soak
and then scrub the bottom, the sides and the outside. Turn it over
and let it dry in the tub and then put it back before someone needs
to bathe and ends up taking a shower with the trash can!

Daily Cleaning Challenge - Toilet

Your mission for today in the bathroom is to wipe down around the
base and the back of the toilet. Grab a rag and some general purpose cleaner
and wipe down the toilet from the bowl downward, the floor around the
base and behind base.

average wipe down that we do after dinner. Now it is very easy to
make this task overwhelming but if you take this slow and easy you
can do this!

Daily Cleaning Challenge - Refrigerator

This is one thing I hate doing, but today is a good day to do it!
Let's clean out our refrigerators, take out the old left overs,
then check the fruit/vegetable drawers and toss what no longer is
appealing to eat. Third, check the meat and cheese drawer, check the
expiration dates on your items in there and toss what needs to go.
Fourth, check out the doors of the fridge, toss the empty condiment
jars and bottles that always seem to magically go back into the
fridge when empty. Last, grab a damp rag and wipe down the shelves.
Do not take every single thing out of your refrigerator and
then take the shelves out to clean
them. Just wipe them down.

Daily Cleaning Challenge - Cabinets

Daily Cleaning Challenge - Cobwebs

Today we're in the kitchen, so let's set our timer for 10 minutes and take a
broom or a Swiffer and get those dusties and cobwebs that are hanging on the

fan. Check out the top of your refrigerator as well.
