Cleaning System continued...

 Based on the Fly Lady System, I no longer spend an extended amount of time most weeks cleaning bathrooms.  While the Fly Lady says to "swish and swipe" daily, since it's just Rob and I here, I decided to do a swish and swipe on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.  This involves a quick wipe of the sink, faucet and a little around on the counter top, quickly brushing out the toilet and wiping it down.  I can do this in both bathrooms pretty quickly.  On the  Tuesday swish and swipe, I do a few more things such as the entire counter top and refilling things that sit out, the shower cleaner, etc.  On Mondays as part of the Fly Lady Home Blessing Hour, I give the bathroom floors a good sweep and mop.  Also during that time, I can quickly clean the mirrors.  This system is still under development, but it's going pretty well.  

And, speaking of the Home Blessing Hour, I have adapted it to include these items...

Cleaning all floors well, changing out linens in bathrooms, emptying all trash, cleaning mirrors, quickly dusting the entire house with my swiffers, and cleaning the doorknobs.  I haven't gotten it down to an hour yet, but I think I can at least do all of that in an hour and a half.  By doing this routine each week on Monday evening or Tuesday afternoon, I could feel a little better about missing my zones if I run out of time.  Every room has had a little attention with this method and that's great!

Next post will be zones.
