Spring Cleaning, The Natural WayWritten by Debra Lynn Dadd
Spring cleaning goes beyond normal everyday cleaning. It's a major project of home revitalization: to make everything new by removing dust and dirt, to make sure everything is in good repair, and to put things in order, so that you will have everything in your household in working condition for coming year. Here are some tasks that are traditionally included in a major spring cleaning: * Put away winter clothes and take out spring and summer clothing. * Sweep and vacuum floors, walls, and corners. * Wash floors and carpets… * Clean window panes, sills, and frames. Replace thick winter curtains that keep heat in with light summer curtains that allow breezes through. Remove storm windows, hang up screens. * Brush or vacuum stuffed furniture and remove spots. * Wash every surface in every room that has accumulated dust or grime. I like to finish a spring cleaning by bringing in loads of spring flowers and placing them in vases in every room. USE NONTOXIC & NATURAL CLEANERS With so much cleaning going on, I always make sure to use cleaning products that are simple, safe, and eco-friendly. When choosing a cleaning product for a specific job, I use least-toxic, most-effective product, in smallest effective amount. Cleaning products are only household products regulated by Consumer Product Safety Commission under 1960 Federal Hazardous Substances Labeling Act, which requires products that contain hazardous chemicals to carry warning labels. In general, it is best to avoid using products that say "Danger," "Poison," or "Warning," on label. Many safer products carry "Caution" label, even though they are acceptable to use. Fortunately, least toxic products voluntarily disclose their complete ingredients on label, so you can determine for yourself safety of product. There are even cleaning products now made with organically-grown ingredients.

Buy Electric wheelchairs onlineElectric wheelchairs mobility for virtually any type of disability. Innovations have made control of electric wheelchairs manageable for everyone. Today, manual and electric wheelchairs have become a physical extension of rider. But it wasn't until 1979, when an anti-trust suit was settled, that an era of competition and design innovation began resulting in better pricing and greater mobility in both manual and electric wheelchairs. Today we can find lightweight, transport, ultra light wheelchairs along with ramps and lifts. Now sleek sports models are used in competition as formal leagues for basketball, tennis, racing and many other sports are developed for users of manual and electric wheelchairs. An estimated 2 million Americans use mobility products and/or motorized scooters. For some, obstacles such as stairs, elevated curbs and rocky terrain may no longer pose such a steep challenge.
