Daily Missions

Zone 2: Mission #1 Monday

Dear Friends:

We are back in the kitchen!! The mission for today is not fun! So
sorry! LOL! Clean your kitchen trash cans!! Take out the trash and
wash those nasty gross cans out! You know what happens when that
trash bag slips down and yet the rest of the family still tosses
things in there! Use a soapy rag and wipe down the sides and the
bottom. Some of you may need to take the can outside and spray it
out with the hose. If you have a lid, don't forget to clean the
underside.

Have fun! (Kelly is ducking and running now....lol)

Zone 2: Mission #2 Tuesday

Dear Friends:

Your mission for today should you choose to accept it: Scrub down
your counter-tops. I don't mean to just wipe a rag across them! I
mean you get some hot soapy water and you wipe down the counters from
front to back and side to side. Yes, you have to move the stuff on
the counters to do this. DON'T take everything off at one time and
then plan to put it all back again, I promise you will get
sidetracked and then you will all email me crying that it is all my
fault!! LOL! You just move your toaster (or coffee pot or whatever
this is an example here! :>) ) over to one side and wipe down the
counter, then move over a foot or so, move aside what is there and
wipe down some more and so on. We are not marathon cleaning the
kitchen here, just getting all the crumbs and junk that seems to
build up behind and under things. Have fun! Don't obsess! Enjoy!

Zone 2: Mission #3 Wednesday

Dear Friends:

I will be able to hear the groans around the globe with this
mission ! LOL!

Grab those toothbrushes and get ready! Yep! You guessed it! Get an
OLD toothbrush and some soap and scrub those kitchen sink faucets!
You will be amazed at how much gunk and grime will come off around
the handles! You shine your sink everyday but today we are going to
make those faucets sparkle! While you are at it take that soapy
toothbrush and scrub your rings that you are wearing that have gotten
grungy and make them sparkle too!

Have fun! I promise you will love the results even if you hated the
actual job!

Love,
Kelly

Zone 2: Mission #4 Thursday

Dear Friends,

Today we are going after the big appliances!

I am not telling you to clean your ovens and tear apart your
refrigerators. Just wipe off the fingerprints, the spills and the
dried food that gets stuck on the stove, the dishwasher and the
refrigerator. Wipe down the doors,the handles and the surfaces.

This is not a detailed cleaning mission where you need to spend hours
scrubbing, just 15 minutes to surface clean your large appliances.

Zone 2: Mission #5 Friday

Dear Friends:

Today is our last day in the Kitchen!! For today I want you to grab
your broom and your mop. Sweep your kitchen floor really well and
then mop. There are several ways to mop a kitchen floor and no real
wrong way. Hot soapy water and wipe. There is no "perfect" mop and
no "perfect" way to do it. Just Do It!

Don't obsess and get caught up in perfection! It won't matter if you
don't mop the way your Mother did as long as you do it. Remember
House work done incorrectly still blesses your family!
