Some of my favorite apps on my iPod are celebrity-related: People.com, TMZ, Pop Sugar...I could go on and on. I certainly don't envy those celebs whose lives are in shambles, but I do wonder what it would be like to live the life of a celeb like Angelina Jolie for a day.
Ever wish that you could switch lives with a celebrity for a day? Wouldn’t it be great if you could figure out how to pull off a red carpet worthy look and keep your home looking like it belongs on the cover of a magazine?
The truth is, though we may not want to admit it, we like hearing celebrity gossip but we also like to keep things clean. That’s why Clorox® Regular-Bleach is giving busy moms like you the chance to do both with Get the Dirt...but Keep it Clean, a new mobile program that delivers quick clean-up tips to your phone while letting you indulge in the celebrity lifestyle.
Visit www.Clorox.com/GetTheDirt to receive Clorox’s Get the Dirt...but Keep it Clean cleaning tips and to be entered for a chance to win a trip for two to Hollywood, California.

Each day has one assigned task that stays the same everyone week so I know the basics will get covered (Tuesday the bedrooms get dusted, Wednesday the bathrooms get cleaned, etc...). Then depending on how much time I have that day, I make a list of other jobs I'd like done and pick a few things. I'm a serious list-lover!

My favorite tip is to deal with it as you see it. I find I get a lot more cleaning done that way.
ReplyDeleteAfter I do laundry, I dust with the used dryer sheet. It picks up dog hair like nobody's business, and I like the idea of getting another use out of it, too.

To keep my home looking glam...I have storage bins for things to keep the clutter down. Also staying organized and on top of things as they come and go from the house. I also think that keeping a house smelling clean is important. I love my Bath and Body Works Wallflowers! I try to tidy the house up every evening before bed...clean kitchen, tidy rooms, do laundry.

Don't allow clutter to accumulate. Mail gets sorted everyday and only once. Recycling bins with lids are in the kitchen and are emptied regularly.
ReplyDeleteI try to clean as I go. I make sure that the dishes are done etc before I go to bed so that I don't wake up to a mess.
