Bless this mess
I've never been a cleaning freak. I've never even been really tidy. I am messy and disorganized but i do the job when it needs to be done. Lately i'm getting a lot better at scrubbing and mopping and shining and sweeping, but that's for the oddest reason: i feel urges to do it. I wonder if it's the coming of age, the pregnancy or the fact that i no longer live alone, but i like to keep it clean.

So let me get a little scatological and give you some very random and quite disturbing principles:

Fact #1 Flushing the toilet with the lid up ejects an aerosol-like plume of germs around the bathroom that float for up to two hours.
Fact #2 One gram of house dust can contain up to 500 dust mites.
Fact #3 A year's bed-making is equivalent to a four-mile walk.

Gotta go. I'm going to take a four-mile walk now.
