Just be comfortable in your own home, if that includes a little mess, so what? If you clean, do it for yourself, not because others might pop in and be shocked to see magazines lying about or a speck of dust on the mantlepiece. Friends will take you as you are, messy, tidy, whatever. Please yourself, not others.Lululizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16252036505940629329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110031732026681006.post-66212446751370410292010-03-01T09:11:52.910+00:002010-03-01T09:11:52.910+00:00Congratulations!!

When I first bought my cleaning products for the kitchen i bought a spray bottle of flash now I just buy the bottled stuff and dilute it in the spray bottle. It lasts ages longer and you're not spending extra on the spray bottle every time.

Mmmm I am not much of a housekeeper myself so I know you just have to keep up with things, don't let them take over you. So don't wait until there is a pile of mail, two piles of magazines and 4 piles of laundry to do. Try to have a schedule and do everything regularly.

It's pretty amazing. gets burnt marks from pans with ease and great on sinks, ovens, kettles, toasters etc. Makes things look good as new again. I am a rubbish house cleaner but when I use this at least things look semi decent and loved! he he! Have a fab day!
