SPRING CLEANING

Since we just passed the "spring forward" time change, and the first day of Spring is next week, it is a good time to get into spring cleaning mode.  For me, I tend to rotate deep cleaning tasks into my weekly cleaning routine - tasks such as wiping down ceiling fans, vacuuming the baseboards, orange-oiling wood furniture, and washing down cover plates and walls.  I like to pick one task to add to each weekly cleaning session, so as to not have an overwhelming stack of deep cleaning needs.  For many people, spring cleaning also involves decluttering.  That too is something that I try to maintain on a regular basis.  I most always have accumulating piles for thrift store donation, consignment or other re-sale, or just plain trash. 

 

If you are one of the many people who aren't the best at keeping clutter and cleaning at bay, remember that the staff at Key Associates is skilled at helping.  We have one client who was extremely organized and neat in the main part of her house, but who needed assistance with her large basement and garage - which were literally packed full.  Our staff was just the nudge she needed to work through her piles, and establish new approaches.  With our assistance, our client was able to discard a very large truckload of junk, to make a room full of yard sale items, and to implement organization systems throughout her newly decluttered spaces.  Here's an article that I enjoyed on getting help decluttering.
