As I was dusting and vacuuming and cleaning the bathroom ( jch), I noticed I was feeling good about it. Strange because cleaning a home is not supposed to make you happy right? I have always liked a clean and tidy home and I have always made sure my home is impeccable. Still, in my prior life I always had people helping me with the task and now in this life its all on my husband and I. So why is living in a clean and tidy home so beneficial? Here’s an excerpt from an article that explains it really well.
Cleaning is no fun – we get it. There are a hundred other things you’d rather do (and need to do). But a messy house is bad news. For starters, a messy home increases your stress level. When you are surrounded by clutter, it can distract you from what you should be focusing on. It can also keep you from finding the things you need quickly (ever lose your keys?), and it can make you feel guilty and overwhelmed.
So here’s to cleaing! Happy Monday
