Last weekend, the Hubs and I had a mission to give our bedroom a BIG spring clean. This meant hoovering the entire bedroom from ceiling to floor, to picture rails to the back of pictures, to curtain rails to fans and lights, to the backs of furniture to cupboard grooves and surfaces. It also meant cleaning the mattresses and pillows from dust mites, getting the curtains washed and cleaned and changing the linen of every single item of soft furnishing in the room. Then we had to clean up the entire bathroom as well.

Tall order? I forecasted it to be a 2 hour affair but once we got organised with Tee’s help, we took less than that BUT the amazing point to note is that Tee asked to do a clean up again because she had had such a great time!!!

Her job was to remove all the pillow cases from the pillows, remove all the duvet covers and all the bedsheets. Then she had to wipe all the surfaces with a damp cloth before we hoovered them. She also had to wipe down all the toiletries in the bathroom without breaking any bottles. Later, she had to put on all the new pillow cases and arrange the toiletries in a certain order. She had also magic-mopped the floor before we hoovered. Because of her hard work, we managed to finish the task in just over an hour. It was great timing! I honestly thought it was going to take forever.

Mind you, we have about a dozen pillows on our two beds so there was quite a lot of work for her to do but she did it, despite sweating and dancing and chatting at it. We were so proud of her that we took her out for a great day the next day.
