Disney's Enchanted - "Happy Working Song" (Actual Footage)

Good evening or good early morning

As usual i start out my day by making a to do list. Todays list included a LOT of cleaning! For the most part, I got everything done that I set out to do. And it was such a feeling of accomplishment!
On top of that my apartment is now clean and the positive (if i have feng shuied properly) can flow. I even cleaned the bathroom sink.

I encourage you to tidy up your bedroom or clean up all the dishes tomorrow before you go to bed. When you wake up in the morning, it will be a nice fresh start without the extra clutter.

I am going to include a list I found on Woman's Day to help with cleaning;


Pare down countertop clutter to what you use every single day, and store—or get rid of—the rest. “Most of us use only 20 percent of our kitchen products 80 percent of the time,” says Julie Edelman, author of The Ultimate Accidental Housewife: Your Guide to a Clean-Enough House.

Save elbow grease “Disinfectant cleaners need to sit on wet countertops for five minutes to sufficiently get rid of foodborne germs and bacteria,” says Linda Cobb, author of Talking Dirty with the Queen of Clean.

Employ lidded baskets to hide toys, magazines and other items.

Flip couch cushions over and give throw pillows a fluff for an instantly tidier-looking sofa.

The shower curtain can be cleaned by wiping them down with hot water and bleach

Wipe down the bathroom mirror every time you step out of the shower, while the glass is steamy. And do the same to shower walls.

Replace bar soap with liquid soap displayed in a refillable, decorative dispenser.

Scrubbin Bubbles has wonderful products to clean the toilet: cleaning gels and the toilet brush make for a mess free touch up

Use plastic bins or crates to corral detergents, dryer sheets, softeners and other essentials.

Keep a plastic bag–lined trash bin in the room to toss lint from the dryer trap and other debris.

For the clean of bleach without the smell you can purchase scented bleach like fresh meadow and lemon that are not as harsh and work well for people who have a breathing problems


And for a bonus, cut up and old t-shirt or use old socks instead of paper towels. They are reusable and will save you a lot of money in the long term from not having to buy paper towels.

If you have young children who you would like to get to help, try motivating with this song from Enchanted: Happy Working Song by Amy Adams.

Happy cleaning,
~Eliza~
