Spring Cleaning

I am so glad it's spring break, and even more glad that we have good weather on spring break.  Many years it's cold, dreary, and rainy.  Yuck!  So far this spring break has started off well.

Every year for spring break I make a spring cleaning list.  Lots of people travel and get to go cool places and do cool things, but we just stick around town and spend time together here.  That includes quality cleaning time.  This morning I cleaned all of the windows in the house, inside and out, and removed the screens so that I could clean out the window casings.  They sure get dusty and cobweb-y and gross in the span of a year.  Ewww!

Later today the children will be put to work with Norwex cleaning cloths and water to clean the baseboards.  Yes, they get to join in the cleaning fun.  (Although they only find it fun for the first 5-10 minutes.)

The husband helps clean, too.  This morning he did dishes, wiped down kitchen counters, the table, and whatever other surfaces needed cleaning in the kitchen while I was doing windows.  

Ah, spring!
