00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:06,680
Hi everyone. 
I'm Ronnie and I'm Jessica and 

2
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:10,200
you're listening to Clean With 
Me, the podcast where we walk 

3
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:17,200
you through cleaning your house.
Hey everybody, this is Jessica 

4
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:20,600
and this is Clean with Me And 
what we do is we walk you 

5
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:22,440
through clean your house step by
step. 

6
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:26,320
So let's get right into it. 
First thing I like to do when I 

7
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,760
am starting my clean is getting 
ready for the day. 

8
00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:33,160
It's really important how you 
start your day and how you start

9
00:00:33,160 --> 00:00:37,600
your routine because if you 
don't have some kind of 

10
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:42,920
structure, it's really hard to 
get your chores done, at least 

11
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,840
if you're me. 
I have trouble if I I don't have

12
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,080
some semblance of structure in 
my life. 

13
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:52,000
I really struggle with getting 
started on my cleans and today I

14
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,080
wanted to do a thorough bedroom 
cleaning episode. 

15
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:59,040
It's been a while since I've 
done this and my bedroom can 

16
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,040
definitely use it. 
So pick the bedroom in your 

17
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:06,080
house that needs the most 
attention and we are going to 

18
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,520
thoroughly, thoroughly clean 
that bedroom today. 

19
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,240
And that could be a kid room, it
could be an adult room. 

20
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,640
Usually when I do bedroom 
episodes, I kind of gear them 

21
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:18,520
towards kid kid bedrooms just 
because that's the bedroom in my

22
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,760
house that gets the messiest the
fastest. 

23
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,760
But today I'm going to talk 
about an adult bedroom. 

24
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,200
You can use this for a kid 
bedroom. 

25
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,600
It applies to any and all, so 
let's get right into it. 

26
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,760
So first thing I want to do 
focal point of the room is 

27
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,400
usually your bed, unless you're 
a vampire. 

28
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:39,920
So if you have a bed in your 
room and it's been a while since

29
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,440
you've changed those sheets, 
let's go ahead and strip the bed

30
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,840
and then we're going to put 
those in the washer. 

31
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,720
So take off your comforter and 
your sheets and let's go ahead 

32
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,200
and wash those. 
If you have already done that 

33
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:57,960
and you don't need to do it, 
it's been maybe a short amount 

34
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,680
of time since you've already, 
since you wash them already, 

35
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,480
then you can just make your bed,
make it look nice and pretty. 

36
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,320
It always feels good in the 
morning when you get up and you 

37
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,720
make your bed right away. 
It just, I don't know, it makes 

38
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,040
me feel like I'm doing something
right when I make my bed in the 

39
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,840
morning because I don't do it as
often as I should. 

40
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:20,280
So either way, whatever you do, 
if you do strip your bed and you

41
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,960
have a bare mattress, I like to 
run, run over the mattress with 

42
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,960
some kind of vacuum, whether 
it's like a shop vacuum, a hand 

43
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:32,160
vacuum, a vacuum attachment or 
just a regular vacuum, whatever 

44
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:37,240
you've got on hand, it's just 
good for your mattress health, 

45
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:42,880
You know, little particles of 
things, skin cells, all kinds of

46
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,680
gross stuff build up on your 
mattress. 

47
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,080
So it's good to give it a good 
vacuum every once in a while. 

48
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,120
So if you are washing your 
sheets and you do have a bare 

49
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,640
mattress, you might as well just
go ahead and do that. 

50
00:02:52,920 --> 00:02:57,760
I also saw that people a lot of 
times like maybe use a steamer 

51
00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,800
on your mattress. 
I don't have one. 

52
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,520
I would like to do that because 
my mattress is kind of old. 

53
00:03:02,920 --> 00:03:06,040
It needs a good steam cleaning. 
But I'm going to go ahead and 

54
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,760
move on from there. 
And then we're going to treat 

55
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:14,040
the bedroom like any any room 
that has a lot of just 

56
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,880
miscellaneous stuff. 
I like to sort and just focus on

57
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,240
one thing at a time so I don't 
get overwhelmed. 

58
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:26,920
And with bedrooms, I always 
start with the floor first and I

59
00:03:26,920 --> 00:03:32,600
do repeat the steps with the 
floor with everything that I'm 

60
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,440
going to talk about. 
And then I will repeat 

61
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,680
everything with all of the 
surfaces. 

62
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,800
So first let's start with 
floors. 

63
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:44,280
And I want you guys to 1st just 
pick up any and all trash on the

64
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,360
floor. 
And you may be thinking, well, I

65
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:48,720
don't have any trash on the 
floor. 

66
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,920
Well, that's that's fine, no 
problem. 

67
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,080
Things you want to get rid of. 
Maybe you just have some 

68
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:58,600
clutter. 
Just anything that is a get rid 

69
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:03,480
of, I want to get rid of pile or
a throwaway pile. 

70
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,960
And the pile could be in a trash
bag. 

71
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,080
So you can either just throw 
things in a trash can if you 

72
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:13,040
just have trash or if you're 
decluttering and it's a room 

73
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,040
with a whole lot of stuff in it 
because we all have different 

74
00:04:16,519 --> 00:04:19,959
stages of messes in whatever 
room we're cleaning right now. 

75
00:04:19,959 --> 00:04:22,000
Maybe we're just doing some 
maintenance cleaning on our 

76
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,440
bedroom, or maybe we have a 
major decluttering situation on 

77
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,840
our hands. 
Either way, we need to get rid 

78
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:32,080
of, umm, get rid of some stuff, 
whether it's just regular trash.

79
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:37,080
Maybe you just have like a, you 
know, wrapper on your, uh, floor

80
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:40,920
or something that needs to get 
picked up or you just need to 

81
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:45,920
get rid of. 
For example, I had a rug that 

82
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,160
was all stained up that was 
sitting in the corner of my room

83
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,000
for a long time. 
That would be something that 

84
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,840
needs to be getting rid of or 
throwing away. 

85
00:04:52,840 --> 00:04:54,280
So that would be in this 
category. 

86
00:04:54,280 --> 00:04:56,040
So just get everything and throw
it away. 

87
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,840
This should be really quick. 
Just buzz around and get 

88
00:04:58,840 --> 00:05:02,600
everything. 
And then with trash, I also do 

89
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,440
all of the trash that's on the 
surfaces as well, just because 

90
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:09,000
they're usually not a whole lot 
of trash on the floor depending 

91
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,360
on the room. 
So, you know, same thing, just 

92
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,360
go around to your surfaces and 
just get any trash, throw it 

93
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:18,440
away or any clutter that needs 
to be donated or getting rid, 

94
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,000
gotten rid of and put it in a 
pile outside of the room. 

95
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:27,960
If you prefer to like have 
different, maybe just cardboard 

96
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,520
boxes. 
If it's something like a, like I

97
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,920
said, if you have a serious 
decluttering situation on your 

98
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:38,120
hands and you need boxes to be 
able to sort the things in this 

99
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,800
room, like maybe there's a whole
lot going on and it's not just a

100
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,280
maintenance clean, then feel 
free to bring in boxes for this.

101
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,520
But if you're just getting rid 
of a few things, you can just 

102
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:48,880
put it in a pile outside the 
door. 

103
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:54,320
Next, usually the biggest issue 
in my room would be clothing. 

104
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:58,320
So any dirty clothing, clothing.
I like to keep a couple of dirty

105
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,920
clothes hampers in my room and 
in my bathroom. 

106
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,360
So I will gather up all of The 
Dirty clothes and bring those to

107
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:10,000
the laundry basket and then 
bring the laundry baskets to the

108
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:14,840
laundry room to be washed. 
Because if they are just in the 

109
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:18,800
room, sometimes when we're in 
the laundry room and we're doing

110
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:23,360
the laundry, we don't think to 
go walk all the way to the 

111
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,720
bedroom and get the stuff out of
those hampers, right? 

112
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,560
So when I'm cleaning the room, I
make it a point to kind of 

113
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,920
gather all of those and bring 
them to the laundry area so that

114
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:35,600
they will be the next priority 
and not just be forgotten and 

115
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:40,000
just be forever dirty in a 
laundry basket in the corner of 

116
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,960
my room. 
And like any of my. 

117
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:48,280
Episodes this is just ideas so 
maybe you don't have to do. 

118
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,640
Half of the things I'm saying, 
maybe there's just one. 

119
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:54,120
Area that really needs. 
A lot of attention, like maybe 

120
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,200
you're just decluttering. 
A craft room. 

121
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,280
Or a guest. 
Room or a? 

122
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:03,200
Closet or something like that 
and you're just focusing on 

123
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:07,680
decluttering. 
Just do whatever it is of all 

124
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:09,600
the tasks that I'm. 
Shouting out that. 

125
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,400
Applies to you. 
And your room personally and. 

126
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,800
I'm just going to throw out a. 
Bunch of ideas and just. 

127
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,040
Use what I need to. 
Do in the rooms. 

128
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:23,600
In my house for a guideline. 
So yeah, once you've got all of 

129
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:28,320
the clothes hampers in the 
laundry room, we've got the 

130
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,000
clothes off of the. 
Floor. 

131
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:34,600
Maybe you've got some piles of 
clean laundry on top of things. 

132
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:39,200
Now this definitely applies to 
me because sometimes when the 

133
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:44,240
kids are sleeping I will fold a 
bunch of my clothes or my 

134
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,240
husband's clothes and I don't 
want to wake them up by opening 

135
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,800
and closing drawers or 
something, so I'll just set them

136
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:51,200
on top. 
Of dressers so. 

137
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:55,600
I definitely have clean clothes.
Piles on top of dressers. 

138
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,400
Or maybe my dressers. 
Are out of hand and they're. 

139
00:08:58,400 --> 00:08:59,480
Kind of. 
They're kind of. 

140
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,080
Cluttery and I just didn't have 
room so I just threw them up 

141
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,360
there so let's. 
Deal with all. 

142
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:05,760
Of the clothes. 
Once you're done. 

143
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,040
With the ones on the. 
Floor. 

144
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,440
The Dirty ones, let's deal with 
the clean ones. 

145
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:14,800
Maybe you have an in between 
chair where maybe I feel like 

146
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:19,760
this is more for men. 
My husband always like wears his

147
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,560
pants like a couple days in a 
row. 

148
00:09:21,560 --> 00:09:25,720
His jeans. 
He'll place his jeans over a 

149
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,280
chair or something. 
And if it has. 

150
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,400
His belt still attached to it. 
That's like a. 

151
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:33,480
Signal for me not to touch it. 
It's just something he's always 

152
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,520
done. 
Like he's never actually like 

153
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,240
said that, but I just know that 
if he has a belt on it and he's 

154
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,200
going to wear it again. 
We've been together for like 10 

155
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,680
years. 
So I just know him really well 

156
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:47,680
because in the past, if I choose
to wash the in between pants, 

157
00:09:47,680 --> 00:09:49,880
he'll be like, where are those 
pants that were sitting here? 

158
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,560
Why'd you wash them? 
So, So you know, you know how 

159
00:09:53,560 --> 00:09:56,840
you grow to those of you that 
have been married for a while 

160
00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,000
know what I'm talking about. 
But yeah, let's get rid of that 

161
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,640
in between pile. 
Let's get rid of any piles of 

162
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,640
clothes, anything that you see. 
Just start with one side of the 

163
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,080
room and work your way to the 
next. 

164
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:11,720
And if you feel overwhelmed at 
any point, just break it down 

165
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,640
into smaller. 
Tasks because like I said this. 

166
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,680
Is the big point in my room is 
clothing that's going to take me

167
00:10:17,680 --> 00:10:19,480
the majority of the time 
cleaning the room. 

168
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:21,960
I'm going to be focusing on 
clothing. 

169
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,280
You may be focusing on something
else, decluttering or something,

170
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,360
but I'm going to be focusing on 
clothing in my room. 

171
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:32,240
So that's what I'm going to 
spend the most time on, and I'm 

172
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,880
going. 
To be focusing on putting stuff 

173
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:40,560
away. 
Going through the if, if you 

174
00:10:40,560 --> 00:10:43,760
have an in between pile, you 
know actually washing stuff or 

175
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,880
putting it up. 
Probably most of the stuff in in

176
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,880
between pile just needs to be 
thrown in the washer usually. 

177
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,720
And then like I have mentioned 
before, I really liked this term

178
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:58,600
that I saw on the Internet. 
That is when you're cleaning you

179
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:02,280
deal with things that do belong 
and you put them in their place.

180
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,640
So things in the room that do 
belong, that just need to be. 

181
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:07,440
Put away. 
And out of. 

182
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:11,480
Sight. 
So let's do that next after the.

183
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,640
Clothing step and like I said, 
if. 

184
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,280
You're on. 
Step 1. 

185
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,640
You stay on step one. 
I'm just throwing out ideas. 

186
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,680
You. 
Guys, go at your own pace and do

187
00:11:20,680 --> 00:11:22,440
what you need to do in your 
personal bedrooms. 

188
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,280
And then if clothing isn't the 
thing you have an issue with, 

189
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:30,240
but it's clutter, then like I 
said earlier about, you know, 

190
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,800
there are things that need to be
put in their place and things 

191
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:35,760
without a place. 
So things with a place and 

192
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,720
things without a place. 
So you just start with one thing

193
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:40,160
at a time. 
Don't get overwhelmed. 

194
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:44,960
Pick one dresser, one night 
stand, and just get everything 

195
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:48,120
on there and separate it into 
things that just need to be put 

196
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,120
away where they belong. 
And then things that need to be 

197
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:55,000
be put in a different room. 
And the things that need to be 

198
00:11:55,000 --> 00:12:00,840
put in a different room. 
If it's not a whole lot of 

199
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:05,000
stuff, you can just put it in a 
pile by the door and then put it

200
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,520
in the other rooms once you're 
done sorting everything. 

201
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,840
And if you're doing a major, 
like I said, decluttering thing 

202
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,400
in a room with a lot, a lot of 
clutter, then you might want to 

203
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:19,040
have different boxes or 
containers to put the things 

204
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,320
that go in the different rooms 
in or bags even. 

205
00:12:21,680 --> 00:12:24,320
And that might make it easier to
sort through everything. 

206
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,200
And that's also good if you're 
going through like a closet, 

207
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,680
like a filing closet, coat 
closet, storage closet, things 

208
00:12:32,680 --> 00:12:38,240
like that, you're going to have 
a lot of keepsakes, things that 

209
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,760
I haven't seen in months that 
need to be got gotten rid of, 

210
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,400
things that need to be donated, 
you know, different piles like 

211
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:48,520
that. 
So the first step is always to 

212
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:52,800
just sort the things out into 
piles, separate them into 

213
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:57,080
keeping, not keeping ever all 
the other categories I said. 

214
00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:02,960
And then the second step is to 
put them away where they go and 

215
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:08,280
or put them in a box for 
donation or trash for throwing 

216
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,280
away. 
Speaking of throwing away, I 

217
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,640
also keep a trash can in my room
personally. 

218
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:20,440
If you do, then take out your 
trash underneath my bed, I 

219
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:24,480
usually use it for storage. 
Under the bed is a great place 

220
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:29,760
to use storage bins for clothing
that's out of season and stuff 

221
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,520
like that for many reasons. 
One, just so you don't have to 

222
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,120
look at it because you don't 
want to go through all of your 

223
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,320
summer stuff in the winter time 
every time you're looking for an

224
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,760
outfit because one, there's no 
room for that. 

225
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,840
And two, it makes it hard to 
find things to actually wear. 

226
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:51,480
So that's a great place to put 
stuff and also because things 

227
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:55,640
don't get brushed or fall under 
the bed as easily if you've got 

228
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:57,320
the storage containers 
underneath your bed. 

229
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:02,040
But if you don't, and currently 
I do not, I need to get some 

230
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:06,040
more storage containers. 
I don't have any right now that 

231
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,800
fit underneath the bed. 
I need to get those short ones 

232
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:13,080
that slide under your bed. 
I have a different type right 

233
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:18,640
now, but right now under my bed 
is dirty and I do clean it 

234
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:23,200
often, but I have wood floors so
it's real easy for things to get

235
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:28,400
swiped underneath the bed. 
So what I do is once I'm done 

236
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,080
with the rest of the room. 
So this is kind of a last step 

237
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:32,920
guys, after you've done 
everything else. 

238
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,240
And like I said, I'm breezing 
through this really quickly 

239
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:40,040
'cause I'm just giving you guys 
ideas and just letting you go in

240
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,800
there with a plan. 
And if it's real bad, you know, 

241
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,640
like I, I say in the other 
podcasts I make, take before and

242
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,080
after pictures or a video of 
yourself cleaning it. 

243
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,360
It'll really motivate you just 
to see how much you can do in a 

244
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,640
short period of time. 
But As for under the bed, if 

245
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,920
you're physically able to move 
it, then move it. 

246
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:01,640
If you can't, then just use a 
broom or some kind of tool to 

247
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,360
help you get everything out from
under it. 

248
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:06,440
And then same thing you did with
the floor. 

249
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:10,800
You just throw away trash. 
First put any clothes on The 

250
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:16,320
Dirty clothes, put away things 
that have a place, and then 

251
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:20,600
things that do not have a place 
in that room, but in another 

252
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,640
room, put it by the door to be 
sorted. 

253
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:31,160
And I like to do that as a last 
step as well because there's no 

254
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:35,040
point in well, I find it really 
overwhelming. 

255
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:39,800
Say if I'm cleaning my room and 
I start by I'm just going to get

256
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,360
everything out in the open and 
I'm just going to get everything

257
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:46,160
out from under my bed and just 
add to the big pile giant mess. 

258
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:50,680
I personally, I used to do that 
back in the day, but it it kind 

259
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:55,200
of overwhelms me. 
So I just do my cleaning of the 

260
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:59,880
room 1st and all of the steps 
that I mentioned to prior and 

261
00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:01,960
then I do the under the bed 
last. 

262
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,760
That way I've got a clean 
service to work work with and it

263
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:08,560
doesn't seem like quite as much 
of an undertaking. 

264
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:13,760
And of course, last but not 
least is wiping down. 

265
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:17,600
So if you have mirrors in your 
room, if a certain once your 

266
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:22,320
surfaces are clean, cleared out 
and everything like that, maybe 

267
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:26,400
you have some sliding glass 
doors to your backyard, then get

268
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:30,240
some glass cleaner and just wipe
everything down nice and 

269
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:36,480
thoroughly and get give 
everything a good dusting and 

270
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:40,440
organize anything that needs 
organizing. 

271
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:45,280
Maybe you have bookshelves that 
need organization and these can 

272
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:50,880
be classified as bonus chores. 
But if your room wasn't really 

273
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,440
that bad to start out with, like
if you didn't have a really 

274
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,440
whole lot of clutter that you 
had to deal with, then that 

275
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,520
leaves time for organization. 
So you can work on organizing 

276
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:07,160
your clothes or a bookshelf or a
night stand or anything like 

277
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,599
that. 
And if you have time, use the 

278
00:17:10,599 --> 00:17:13,280
same method for your closet. 
If you still have that momentum 

279
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:16,480
going and you're done with your 
bedroom and you want to do more 

280
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,359
and you want to organize your 
closet as well and maybe your 

281
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,160
closet is getting a little bit 
out of hand. 

282
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:25,599
Same method, everything off the 
floor first and the same steps. 

283
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:32,840
And then you go with the shelves
and then move your way up at in 

284
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:34,760
the closet as well and just use 
the same steps. 

285
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,200
Things that do belong, things 
that don't, things that you can 

286
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:41,200
donate, things that stay and 
just sort everything and then 

287
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,800
put it all away. 
But do it in steps that way it 

288
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:45,680
doesn't overwhelm you. 
So you don't just have these 

289
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:46,800
gigantic. 
Piles. 

290
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:48,560
That are going to stress you 
out. 

291
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:51,560
So anyway I. 
Hope I helped you today. 

292
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:55,160
I hope you get a lot done. 
I know this was a shorter 

293
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,080
episode, I just wanted to do a 
quick bedroom episode because 

294
00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,720
it's been a minute since I did 
it. 

295
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:03,040
I'm going to go clean my bedroom
now because it desperately needs

296
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,840
it and I hope you guys have a 
great day and as always, happy 

297
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:07,280
cleaning.
