My favorite tips.We live in a 2 story home....4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms upstairs. As soon as I get up in the morning I make the bed. I clean my husbands bathroom...yes everyday...empty his wastbasket and take a clorox wipe to sink, stool, and baseboard. This leaves his bathroom clean and only takes about 2 minutes. Next repeat the same in my bathroom. By doing this every morning when I go downstairs to start my day I feel like I have already acomplished a great deal and can be "done" upstairs. Once a week I run the sweeper upstairs and dust. I do at least one load of laundry every day....that way I never have to get caught up and it is much easier on the septic system. For cob webs (I am very short 4'11") I put an old pillow case over the bristle part of a broom....you can dust all corners along the edge of the ceiling without a step stool even if you ar short like me.

Awesome tips. If my manmaid (Earl!) ever cuts out on us, I'm all about this, especially the rotating deep cleaning concept. That's very cool. Thanks for putting all the time into this.

These are all such great tips! I personally am not a huge fan of cleaning, or rather clutter seems to be a huge fan of me and won't go away! However, I have been trying to put myself in the mindset of making myself clean now that I'm moving... starting with getting rid of my extra clutter before I move in, and then ending with actually cleaning after I move in... hopefully my roommate will be willing to work with me and clean on a weekday morning, or something.... maybe crank up some tunes and make a fun time of it? Here's to hoping my new apartment stays nice and clean, unlike my boyfriends current apartment, where they are haveing to "deep clean" every single room in the house before Saturday, as they haven't bothered to do so at all this year!
Thanks again for the tips! These are great!

Hey, one neat way to save the mess in your microwave is to use a paper towel to cover the food. I have my family well practiced in this and my microwave only needs a small wipe now and then. it really saves a lot of work later.

Care to come over and clean my apartment while I wander around and take notes? lol
All good tips. I'll use the next time my wife says I have to help her clean.
