Addie
Chef Extraordinaire
Ever since I had the Norovirus, I have become fanatical about keepinig the counter tops and bathroom clean. More like an obsession. And I can't stand salt or sugar granules on the counter. I am always running my hands over the counter tops to see if there are any. I use the surgical wipes that I got from Winthrop to wipe down the counter tops and faucet handles in both rooms. Since I make it a point to not invite folks into my apartment, I am not concerned with appearances. Right now there is a sinkful of silverware waiting to be washed by hand. I have been having problems with my blood pressure dropping all week. And I can't stand for a long period of time. The silverware will get washed today. I use paper plates mostly. So that helps to cut down on the dishwashing. If I were in better health, it would take me about an hour to clean the whole apartment. The kitchen is the easiest to clean. Mainly because I throw my food in the oven or microwave. All garbage goes down the disposal, except for bones. I use paper towels for hand wiping and wiping dry the counter tops. I think I have only two dish towels. I never take them out.
I have the Shark steam cleaner. I plug it in and clean any floor spots right away. It sits in the kitchen. If any pan goes into the sink, it gets filled with hot water. Makes cleaning much easier.
I equate cleaning the kitchen and bathroom together. Because those are the two rooms that will create the most health problems. I clean the kitchen first, then the bathroom. For some strange reason, I find myself cleaning the bathtub even if I haven't taken a shower since the last time. I usually clean it right after I take a shower. Then I clean it again the next day before I take a shower. I know. I am weird.
