Some of you may remember back in October I posted about a winter version of spring cleaning. Excpt looking back, it wasn’t so much a clean as it was a clear out, or a detox of the house; I went through all that we owned and cleared out the unused and unloved, the old and the broken. I put them in a big pile, and slowly but surely found a way to be rid of them.

But now that spring is on the turn again, I decided it was time for an actual spring clean, emphasising the cleaning part. Of course things like laundry and washing up are done regularly, but windows? Cooker filter? I don’t think most of those things had been cleaned since we moved here, three years ago. And yes, I do realize how vile that is.

So I am a woman on a cleanliness mission. So far the windows are see-through again, the oven tray no longer adding carbon to our diet and the cooker can breath.

I have to admit, it’s not much. But it’s a start at least. And all paths start with one step right?

So what’s next (though this is probably more for my benifit than yours )?

* The fridge needs a good clean and empty of all those odd little leftover bits. Also it could do with being pulled out, so we can fish out all the stuff that’s dropped underneath and behind it.

* Washing the curtains and shower curtains.

* Clean the rest of the oven

* The microwave insides and behind it.

* Hoovering the spare room.

* Giving the kitchen’s and bathroom’s nooks a clean.

* Checking the batteries in various safety alarms

That’s all I can think of. But if your reading this and think there’s something I’ve missed, let me know! (Just bear in mind I live in a flat )
