VERY TRUE. A little will get it just as clean, save money, and time.

It's a neverending source of internal conflict. <BR/><BR/>I have come up with a way to trick myself into doing the dishes or cleaning up the kitchen, so I imagine it can be extrapolated to any dreaded but ultimately simple task. <BR/><BR/>I look at the mess, sigh deeply and think (often mutter aloud), "OK, I'll give it 5 minutes of my life." I set the kitchen timer, then start working fast. Often the timer dings, I'm so close to being done that I just go ahead and finish.<BR/><BR/>It's strange how these dreaded chores rarely take more than 5 minutes, 10 tops.Indiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17333639250952967951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-43856940974934547232009-03-23T20:57:00.000-05:002009-03-23T20:57:00.000-05:00too funny that this cleaning meme came up after yo...too funny that this cleaning meme came up after you and i e-mailed back and forth on the topic. the only way i'd let someone come in and clean my house is if it was someone i knew. a stranger rummaging thru my stuff creeps me out. <BR/><BR/>love the carol burnett photo!julie kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02009127575536333064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-57115156692787211772009-03-23T20:46:00.000-05:002009-03-23T20:46:00.000-05:00I just use the slave labor I created in my evil la...I just use the slave labor I created in my evil laboratory.
