There are two different methods for how I dust my house. During the Weekly Home Blessing Hour, I quick dust the house. This includes the living room, bedrooms, and bookshelves. I don’t move things around. I dust around them. When I am working in a Zone, then I do the detail dusting. I move things around, and I dust the ceiling, fan, baseboard, etc. This way, everything is quick dusted weekly, and once a month, it is detail dusted. This works well in my house. We do not have indoor pets, and we don’t seem to accumulate a lot of dust weekly. The key is being consistent in dusting. This is one of those tasks that gets put off easily by many people. So start today if you have been procrastinating. You can do it!
