Day 24 - Swish and Swipe

Day 24

This is the day you have been waiting for! The day that you no longer have to think twice about letting a guest use your bathroom, or wondering how long it has been since you cleaned the toilet after your son drops your hair brush in. Today we add the "swish and swipe" to our routine!

Do you realize that you can have your bathrooms company ready in 2 minutes or less if you add it to your routine! Every day, run the toilet brush around the bowl real quick, with or without cleaner (you can even just throw in some shampoo...you know that bottle that you really don't like and has been sitting in your shower for a while), wipe down the counters, and put away everything you got out while getting ready. If you have more than one bathroom, split up your morning routine so that you get ready in both bathrooms.

Every morning I take a shower and get dressed in one bathroom and then I give my son a bath in the other. I usually do my hair and make up while he is in the bathtub splashing around. Now I will just take a couple extra moments, and swish out the toilet and swipe the counters. Super quick. So right after I get dressed, swish and swipe master bath, right before I get my son out of the tub, swish and swipe the guest bath....then my bathroom will be ready for company! How awesome is that!

Here is another good idea... I keep a roll of paper towels under the bathroom sink, and after some showers, when all the surfaces are moist, I take a paper towel and wipe up all that dust and hair that collects along the edges of the floors and in the corners, on top of the toilet tank and such. It only takes a few seconds.
