Work through the list in one day or better yet, work on the tasks as you can throughout the month. My suggestion? Split it up and do a little bit as you can during the month. OVERWHELMED? USE TAPE! If you are trying to clean or de any surface or space, take a roll of painter s tape and section off a square and just work in that space. Set a timer and concentrate on just that space. This is especially helpful for areas that have a lot of sentimental stuff or memorabilia. BY THE BUCKET CLEANER Basements and garages tend to be especilly grungy. Use this micture for the especially dirty spots like shelves and floors. Wash, scrub, and repeat until your space is clean. No rinsing is necessary. 1/4 cup Borax 1 gallon warm/hot water 10 drops lemon or orange essential oils (if desired) Mix in a large bucket and use with a mop or scrub brush. Scrub away dirt and grime and repeat. STOCK THE CAR Before things get going for the summer, take a couple minutes to clean it out and get it ready for the summer. Add a plastic bag or garbage receptacle for trash. Add a liint roller and a microfiber cloth or mitt to the glove box to wipe down the dash and surfaces. M a n y e y e s g o t h r o u g h t h e m e a d o w, b u t f e w s e e t h e f l o w e r s i n i t. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
