There’s a lot to learn in this life. Reading, writing, arithmetic. How to balance a budget, book an airline flight, and change a tire. Cook a gourmet meal, plant a garden, sew a seam.
And sometimes, housekeeping skills fall by the wayside. Perhaps Mom was busy earning a wage and didn’t have time to pass on homemaking skills. Perhaps she didn’t know the ins and outs of housekeeping herself. Perhaps you really didn’t think you’d need to know those things and just ignored her.
You can still learn it.

Looking for commercial vs housekeeping cleaning tips; quick and easy, in and out in far less time. I have osteoporosis & thrombosis. Many years ago I did commercial cleaning.

Finding my desire for cleanliness and order to insure satisfied clients is very time consuming. Need to train my brain to make it simple and easy, in and out in less time than it’s taking.
