Cleaning the bathroom

If there is a task I hate, it is cleaning the bathroom. I think each fixture in the bathroom should have its own sponge. Why would you clean your sink with the same sponge you clean your toilet or bathtub with? Oh sure, maybe you think you are smart because you clean the sink first and the toilet last, so all those toilet germs don't find their way to your sink/face cloth/tooth brush. What about the next time you clean the bathroom? Is the sink getting the same treatment as last time? If so, consider which fixture was last scrubbed by that sponge. And those germs have been having a hay day in that sponge ever since!

Another thought to ponder... Why do we break our backs to clean the shower? The walls are made of tile, just like the bathroom floor (my floor is linoleum). I use a mop to clean the walls of my shower. I can get a lot more leverage out of the mop than I can get out of my arms.

Remember, if women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.
