I would appreciate a donation. I spend a lot of time every day in researching for articles and the latest research on MS. When an something is written in medical terminology I translate it into non-medical terms. I can no longer work because of my MS.

15 Minutes of Madness

 

We all have certain areas of the house that irritate us when they are messy.  Sometimes we feel that these areas have be clean and tidy before we can clean any other area in the house.

 

What I would like you to do is spend 15 minutes, before bedtime, cleaning those areas.  Whatever isn’t completely clean when 15 minutes is up doesn’t get done tonight.  It will have to wait until morning.  Let is go, relax.  That was your 15 Minutes of Madness. 

 

If you perform this 15 Minutes of Madness every night your trouble areas will always be clean.  Make sure you set a timer before you start.  You are not to work more than 15 minutes.  When your hot spots are clean and there is minutes remaining on your timer you can branch out to clean other areas.  You will be surprised at how much can be cleaned in 15 short Minutes of Madness.
