Friday Five

1. What housekeeping chore(s) do you hate doing the most? Washing floors. I haven’t been able to find a time of day when they won’t be walked upon.

2. Are there any that you like or don't mind doing? Dusting. It gives me a chance to play with the tchotchkes and rearrange them. (Just watch that gator head....the teeth are sharp!)


3. Do you have a routine throughout the week or just clean as it's needed?I was once quite disciplined, with the whole color coordinated card file of tasks. Now I just do what I can, when I can.


4. Do you have any odd cleaning/housekeeping quirks or rules? “The Blanche DuBois Rule.” Dim bulbs keep everything from looking so harsh. That is the only way I can tolerate the kitchen floor.


5. What was the last thing you cleaned? My gums and teeth. First things first.
