Spring cleaning

When I was young, spring cleaning is a big deal in my family. My mom was very superstitious and she said we must use bamboo leaves to sweep the ceiling off cobwebs. The bamboo leaves will drive away all the evil spirits. So, spring cleaning means a big mess of ceiling to floor.

Now when I think of those jobs, I shudder. I must thank my lucky stars that I have a housekeeper who use my dyson vacuum cleaners to clean the cobwebs. She use those long tubes and use the dyson vacuum cleaners to clean up every corner. I do not believe in evil spirits so dyson vacuum cleaners works for me.

Just today, my housekeeper has cleaned a few rooms and she will come by again on Monday to finish the rest.

I can smell spring in the air.
