Keep your life pleasant and well ordered
This is a list of recommended weekly chores – to keep your life pleasant and well ordered. I don’t follow this list obsessively, but try to stay as close to it as my household regimen requires.
- Change the bed linens and bathroom towels
- Vacuum rugs, floors, upholstered furniture and lampshades
- Wash wood and tile floors
- Dust surfaces and objects, including pictures, mirrors, light fixtures, and light bulbs
- Wipe fingerprints or smears from doorknobs, woodwork, telephones, computer keyboards
- Wash down entire bathroom: toilet, sink, tub, wall tiles, toothbrush holders and fixture
- Clean entire kitchen: clean refrigerator; wipe down stove and other appliances; clean sinks, counters and tabletops; wash backsplashes
Enjoy your clean and organized house!

Whoa! I fall far below this standard. But have no wish to change.
You don’t’ need to change. You are perfect the way you are. And your house is beautiful. It is an oasis from the tumultuous world.
My grandmother used methylate spirit to clean with a rug doorknobs and different surfaces, do you think it’s a good idea? (I’m a cleaning buff!)
Lionel,
if your grandmother used it, it must be a good idea. Grandmothers know best!
