Is it time to give your dog or cat his monthly flea/tick/heartworm medicine, trim his nails, or give him a bath? If you have fish, give the filter a thorough cleaning. Birds, hamsters, guinea pigs? Clean out their cages really well today.
30 min - It is also General Cleaning Day. Spend no more than 30 minutes vacuuming, dusting and polishing the main living areas of you home. Don't get caught in the perfection trap -- whatever you can get to today is fine. |
