So a month or so ago my dear sister-in-law wrote this blog post, and I thought "Yeah She is right, Katie is always right...She is very wise." But I didn't really think much more about it, that is until this past month.
For the month of April, my mom saved me 50 bucks! Seriously, I love her! We have super-cool landlords who, while paying a visit to fix something at our humble abode, took notice to fact that I try to maintain a nice, clean home that we can enjoy. I mean a clean home is a happy home, right? Well the next time we saw our landlords they told us to take $50.00 off our rent for keeping our place so clean! Thanks, first to our landlords and second to my mother! Really if it was for my mom getting on my case about dusting every week, and tidying every single day I wouldn't have these skills.
I can vividly remember my mom telling me "If you tidy every day, it will be so much easier to keep you room clean and you will be grateful when it comes time to dust at the end of the week." and she is right! A little bit of tidy when I get home from work goes a long way!
I can also remember her instructing me to rinse my dish before putting it in the sink. "If you rinse your dish, it will make it so much easier when it comes time to wash all the dishes." what do you know, right again! I washed a sink full of semi-dirty dishes today and it only took 10 min.
So I just wanted give my dear mother a well overdo Thank You!
