I’ve always heard that you are supposed to clean the whole house in the spring. Unfortunately that is a horrible time for me to clean my house! School is at it’s absolute busiest – both at work and graduate school. But cleaning the house right before the school year starts seems like an absolute ideal time for our family. Right before things get busy for another nine months I clean out and declutter the house.
The first floor is clean!

Carpets vacuumed
Hard floors swept and washed
Rugs vacuumed
Surfaces dusted

Counters cleaned
Cabinets organized
Fridge and freezers cleaned and organized
Towels and napkins washed, ironed, and put away

All surfaces are clean and decluttered! Time to move on.
Does anybody else choose late summer to clean their house? Or am I the only weird one who does this?
