Housekeeping Basics

   We are always striving towards gracious living. My motto: "A clean home is it's own reward."  Even if you live alone and entertain infrequently, that is no reason to live in squalor. If you have a domestic partner or live in a family setting, housekeping becomes even more important. We have discussed hiring staff for certain chores, but many of us who cherish our privacy prefer to do our own housework, no matter how rarely.
   If you have been working on your car or doing stuff like demolition, drywall, stone masonry or just gardening, walking in your front door will make a mess. Fellas can urinate out back of the garage but you ladies still have to come inside. Just taking the time to remove your boots can make a world of difference.
  I know I've said some of this stuff before:
1. Throw out the old magazines.
2.Do the re-cycling.(Saving beer cans is not an investment strategy)
3.Do the dishes or use paper plates.
4. Just because you cleaned the toilet , don't mean it's time to move out.
    Don't get a puss on just because you have to spend an hour a month cleaning up. Just do it.
