 [[[[[[[Special Flash]]]]]]]] 

Monthly Specials:  I have a new product now called Simple Solutions. As is usual I'm behind in getting it in my Product Catalogue. It is an amazing product that removes hard water stains from windows, windshields and glass shower doors. It comes as a powder and mixed with water and pasted on the glass then rubbed to remove the buildup. 

This is spring cleaning season so I put together a package of our most favorite cleaners. Our Bi-O-Kleen has received a warm welcome from users as a very effective yet healthy cleaner and the Ion-A-Clean has been noted as being the most wonderful stain remover. The Simple Solution is $15 The Bi-O-Clean is $12 and the Ion-A-Clean is currently $8.95 although it will be going up to $9.95 with my next shipment later this month. 

These three favorites are now packaged together for $31.95 rather than $35.95 and includes one of our $2.50 White Scrubbie Pads. 

If you only need the Simple Solutions it is $15. During the month of April it will also include the White Scrubbie Pad. Since the Simple Solutions is not on my website yet, order the White Scrubbie Pad (you will not be charged although the invoice will state that) and in the comment section let me know that you want the Simple Solutions.

If you want the package, order the Ion-A-Clean, The Bi-O-Clean and the White Scrubbie pad and in the comment section tell me you want the April special. This special is for subscribers only. 

To speed up those spring cleaning jobs don't forget to order one of my books "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Cleaning.." Particularly the stain removal guide and speed cleaning sections will breeze you through your housework.

 [[[[[[[GREETINGS]]]]]]]] 

Ok I admit I'm a bit on the naïve side. Add a dash of stubbornness and the two can have rather strange results especially when that stubbornness prevents me from listening to those instinctive messages that can make a huge difference in an outcome. You know the ones - they come with a slap on your forehead and "If I had only listened to my inner thoughts." 

Being naïve can be a bit humorous when taken in the right light - or not so right light as the case may be. Four years ago when I went to Pomona, Ca for a trade show, I stayed in a little motel not far from the fairgrounds. It was not all that great but clean and comfortable enough. So I made reservations for the same motel again this year. 

While I was unloading my truck, I didn't think much of the strange sideward glances of a motel worker. Our local newspaper had run an article about my company that Sunday and I had been happily busy all week. After a grueling 850 mile drive through the most incremental weather I was not in the mood to listen to my instincts. During the daylight the lights in the room didn't seem so dim and I was exhausted enough that the green walls did not give me thought for concern. 

However the sun does set and the true "color" of this motel finally settled on me along with the darkening sky and room. It ended up the man was there to install a certain type of TV channel and this was not the place for me to be.  

Grandfather had been sending small messages to me about finding a different motel long before I left. Only my stubborn side ignored him determined that this motel was perfectly fine. He once again got a good chuckle and a promise from me to be a better listener.  

[[[[[[[TIMELY TIPS: 

The last two newsletters have covered cleaning chores that can be handled when you have 15 minutes, 30 minutes or an hour on your hands. This news letter we will cover those half day chores. For all my new members, the first two newsletters are on my blog available on my website.  

* Down on the farm every spring, Grandma would haul out the pillows, mattresses and throw rugs and have us shake, beat and rattle them to freshen them for the spring and summer. Those may be old fashioned ideas but they should be time honored. All that shaking and beating removed the winter's coat of dust, pollen and who knows what else that decided to hibernate between the layers of blankets and mattresses. 

Even if time is tight for spring cleaning and you need to limit the time spent on deep cleaning, don't neglect your bed room. When you spend 6 to 8 hours sleeping on top of dust - sinus and allergy problems tend to rear their ugly heads. You'll be surprised how much easier you will breathe simply by cleaning your bed thoroughly. 

Wash all the bedding including your mattress cover. Remove the mattress and box springs. Turn your frame on the side and clean it with our Bi-O-Kleen. Vacuum the carpet. If there is any dirt marks along the wall use the Ion-A-Clean to remove them. 

Replace the box springs and vacuum it. Next replace the mattress, vacuum the first side, flip it then vacuum the other side. Clean your pillows by either air drying them in the dryer or washing them if they are feather pillows. 

Next pull out your dresser or chest of drawers and vacuum then dust the walls. If you get real energetic tackle the closet. Take to Goodwill anything you haven't worn for the past 2 years and this includes those items we all toss on the top shelf thinking we might need it one day. Well, this is 5 years later and you forgot you had it - toss it in the Goodwill bag. 

* In the kitchen: Ok this is time to fess up. When was the last time you treated your cabinets to a good wood treatment? Our Wood Care is just the answer to prevent the drying and cracking that can and does happen. It will revive those areas that have dulled from water splashing. 

Remember though if you have used a product like Pledge that contains chemicals, it's best not to mix products. It could cause the finish to soften. Wood Care can be used successfully on top of pure lemon oil as long as the product does not contain petroleum distillates. Petroleum distillates should never be used inside the home. Check your products carefully. Researchers are just now beginning to associate d-limolene with physical ailments as well. 

*Don't forget to clean your refrigerator and toss any bottle that is past the "best used by date." Wipe out the freezer and thoroughly clean the drawers and shelves. They will soon be full of the summer's harvest. 

Then each day where you have a few spare minutes, remove everything from one cabinet and wipe down the shelves. Start with the shelves where food, spices etc are stored to discourage ants from hauling off the leftovers. 

Spring is a great time to go through your home and disguard your toxic cleaners. Call your local toxic waste management company and take that stuff to them for proper disposal. Give your body a spring cleaning as well by getting rid of all that stuff. It literally is killing you.
