A Spring Cleaning Instruction Sheet...For Men:
Honey ... thank you for helping me today. I hope I didn't hurt your arm too badly!
Broom: A long handled brush used for sweeping (also doubles as a mode of transportation for your mother)
Vacuum: Much like the leaf blower except it sucks in, instead of blowing out. Don't let this alarm you. It isn't broken and doesn't need more torque, speed, RAM or whatever it is you did to the dishwasher.
Dust Pan: Contrary to popular belief, this is where you sweep the dirt, not under the hallway area rug.
Dust Cloth: A cloth designated for removing tiny particles of dirt from every flat surface of the house. Hint: look for your old "Lucky shirt."
Bucket: Cylindrical container used for holding soapy water when mopping the floor. Also known as your 'medieval knight' helmet when you're playing with our seven year old.
Mop: A bundle of coarse yarn, rags or cloth fastened at the end of a stick, used for scrubbing floors. You'll remember this as your dance partner at the New Year's Eve party last year.
Squeegee: Same principle as washing the car windshield, and yes, real men do squeegee.
Take your time, everything will be fine. If you need me, I'll be in the basement cleaning up the smoke damage from your "do it yourself" electrical rewiring incident last week.
