When Will You Start Your Spring Cleaning?

I’ve started already. Since windows are easier to clean here, they get cleaned far more often. Gutters need cleaning and the soffits which I usually do with an air compressor and power washer. I’ve been keeping the cupboards clean all year so am on top of that. Our storage room needs to be better organized and I’d like to get it done before spring arrives since I have so many yard projects to tackle that I’m excited about.
 
Sometime spring of 2024....maybe

I remember my mom doing the spring cleaning. Mattresses went out in the yard to be leaned up against the fence for the sun to beat down on them. Lace curtains came down to be washed, pegged out on the stretchers and put back up. All the blankets and bedspreads were washed and hung out in the sun. Rugs came out to the clothesline to be beaten.
 
I clean through the year, but do a major clean in the spring & fall.

I'd like to start this week in the living room on the cathedral ceiling & work my way down to the floor. I have a telescoping pole with a brush to knock down webs/dust from the top of my step ladder. This is the hardest part & I always dread it. The rest of the 2nd level rooms can be reached from the floor with the pole.

It's a bit like (or was like) "Painting the Forth Bridge".

"painting the Forth Bridge used to indicate that a task can never be completed. The steel structure of the Forth Railway Bridge in Scotland has required continuous repainting: it is so long that once the painters reach one end, they have to begin again at the other."
