True enough.  I was in a computer class that wound up being all women, plus me, so the prof, as an icebreaker geared towards the majority, asked each of us to  give a helpful housekeeping tip or trick.

They went around, giving fun stain-removing tips; then they came to me & I gave the ultimate in tips: Wait long enough & someone else will do it for you!

The next day, one lad cae & gave me a big hug, saying she didn't feel like  doing the dishes, so she left them & sure enough, by morning they were all  done!

IÆm mopping up my act!
Clean it, like you mean it.
Cleaning is my soap-erpower.
Cleaning is my dirt therapy!
Keep calm and keep cleaning on!
Sweep dreams are made of these!
ItÆs cleaning oÆclock somewhere!
I find cleaning very mopp-ortant.
I dust canÆt handle the pressure!
I find laundry day sew satisfying.
Cleaning is my broom-mate activity! Cleaning is the key to a happy life. Cleaning mirrors is reflective therapy. Cleaning: my cardio and clarity booster! DonÆt brush me offùIÆm here to clean up! Cleaning the stove is a burner of a task. When life gives you grime, make it shine! Cleaning: where I polish up my priorities! My cleaning game is simply sponge-tacular! Spill the tea, not the stains û cleaning mode on!

Happy trails to you. . .
