good housekeeping...contd.

………Likewise you will prepare the lists of all the categories and minutest items to be included in that list, you may add or delete items as per your requirement in that list.

After preparing the list for all broad categories which occupy floor, wall or air space in your house you have to assign a particular place for a particular article in the house. It will be convenient and will appear aesthetically nice if you collect similar kind of things together

As a result of this exercise your daily cleaning and organizing chore will become very systematic & hassle free.

Now, we come to weekly cleaning, we should focus on one area, in one room which requires immediate attention. Suppose on Monday you take up fridge cleaning & wall tiles cleaning in the kitchen, Tuesday you take up master bedroom’s furniture cleaning-bed sheet change-bedside table sorting, Wednesday you take up second bedroom’s furniture cleaning-bed sheet change-bedside table sorting. Thursday take hall’s furniture cleaning-sorting, arranging. Friday can be given to two bathroom’s extensive cleaning. Saturdays, doors, switch boards, and dirty patches on walls can be taken up. Sundays can be assigned to cleaning of webs and dust on the walls of whole house, fans and tube lights. Take care that when you are dealing with the weekly cleaning of a specific area daily cleaning of whole house has been performed as per the schedule.

Fortnightly cleaning, includes wet cleanings of windows and doors , extensive cleaning of kitchen shelves, any other shelf or storage area in bedrooms other than clothes almirah.

Monthly cleanings requires removal of heavy furniture and proper cleaning, bed box storage etc. areas which are out of sight, contain necessary items, which should not be out of mind.

Cleaning in two or six months can be of loft areas .

Yearly areas include whitewash, or wet cleaning of walls, almirah and other areas.

In nutshell, basic & daily cleaning requires most meticulous planning & execution and all the other things will easily fall in place.
