" Several of the same spring-cleaning questions came up time and again while I was on the radio. So, here are few hints for those who tackle chores with a can-do attitude:  Assemble all of the cleaning supplies and tools you need. Make a list \u2014 either mental or written \u2014 of what you want to accomplish. Are you going to clean all of the light plates, windows, and hard surfaces, or tackle the drapes and floors? If you are the type who likes to clean your home one room at a time, the rule is: Don&amp;#039;t leave until you are done! That means you bring all of the cleaning supplies with you, plus several bags or boxes marked &amp;quot;trash,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;store away,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;goes to another room,&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;give away.&amp;quot;  Start at the top level of your home and work your way down. Don&amp;#039;t forget some upbeat music!  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
