6 Things I Learned When Trying to Make My Home Pinterest-Perfect For a Week

One of my goals for the week was to keep my home "visitor" clean. I wouldn't describe myself as a messy person, at least not since college, but I'm the epitome of the "good enough" cleaner. I clean, dust, vacuum, and mop once a week, with straightening up a little every day. I also may or may not literally sweep the occasional stray fabric or dust bunny under a rug. This week, however, I tried to keep the house at the level of clean usually reserved for guests. At the end of the week, we were ordering takeout and eating off of paper plates because I didn't want to spend any more time cleaning. I love having the house that clean and organized, but at a certain point, you have to sit down and enjoy your home.
