We all organize things differently, believe it or not! I will tell you right now that there are thousands of blogs, articles, books, etc that will classify people into different types of organizers. Humor me, however, and read my take on it.   1) Ornamentals. People that might entertain others in their homes. Have you ever watched theContinue reading “Types of Organizers”

Hi everyone. I just tried Seventh Generation multipurpose, disinfecting cleaner (Lemongrass Citrus scent) for the first time the other day. I wanted to give you my thoughts, as a cleaning professional, for those that are interested. I would give it 3 out of 5 stars. I wasn’t impressed. I am thankful for this product asContinue reading “Product Review: Seventh Generation”

You’re supporting your community. I care about your business. It isn’t the mindset of “Oh well, we’ll get another client”. Every single client is important to me. I don’t spend a dime on advertising (other than like business cards and t-shirts) because all of my business has been through word of mouth referrals. Your revenueContinue reading “Why choose my small business over a big company?”

The following are my suggestions as someone who has had A LOT of jobs, and from someone who has closely observed the practices of successful people, and earned a MBA. Set a time limit for yourself. If you work hard at your current position and have received positive employee evaluation reviews, set a time limitContinue reading “Career Advancement”

My husband and I grew up with families in two very different tax brackets. He rarely had to do many chores around the house–in all fairness, he was very involved in school/sports/band, etc. I had chores starting when I was a kid and was able to earn an allowance, although mostly, doing chores was justContinue reading ““I don’t know how…””

My dad worked at his company for forty years. He hated the last ten or so. Being a high school graduate (as well as a veteran) with a family, he told me he didn’t feel like he had a choice–he felt he had to stay where he was or we would suffer for it. MyContinue reading “Don’t die unhappy…”

An uncomfortable subject for many, but believe it or not, totally applicable to what I do as a housekeeper. Not talking about it, ignoring it, will only make things worse. Trust me, I know. I have dealt with my depression/anxiety/panic disorder since I was a teenager (at least). Let me talk to you about howContinue reading “Mental Health, Let’s talk about it.”

-Backsplashes. You would think they’d be designed to be easily cleanable since they are specifically made to catch oil/dirt/food particles, but no. Even magic erasers have a hard time with these guys. -Caulked areas. These pose a problem for me because if I scrub too hard or use too hard of a cleaner, some ofContinue reading “Things that are a pain in the ass to clean (pt. 2)”

-For the love of God, put your pet on HEARTWORM PREVENTION and keep them up to date. We see heartworm disease daily. It’s expensive, painful, deadly, and 100% preventable. -We know shit about stuff, we went to school too. -We don’t make the prices and we don’t care that you think it’s expensive. -We don’tContinue reading “Things a vet tech wants you to know…”

Things that are a pain in the ass to clean, plus “organizational hacks” that are wack. 1) Brickwork indoors. You’ll need a hose, a well-placed drain, and a dehumidifier for cleaning that. 2) Piles. I see a lot of clients with piles of things that they consider organized. True, they are easily accessible and allContinue reading “For the love of God! From, your housekeeper. Pt.1”
