After all the snow and cold weather, people start to get anxious when the weather rises to the mid 50s. Taking off heavy coats and rolling the windows down on the way home from school is definitely trending at the Audubon High School. Something else that goes with warmer temperatures is spring cleaning, which involves a lot more than some would expect. Popular activities of spring cleaning include bringing spring and summer clothes out of storage, boxing up winter clothes, cleaning out garages and sheds, and dusting miscellaneous furniture throughout the house.
Melanie Petersen, a senior, cleans out her car at the end of winter so her car is ready for the spring. Rachel Mosinski, a freshman, goes through her dresser in the beginning of spring and sorts through her warm clothes. “I box all the winter clothes up and take them to the attic. After bringing down my summer clothes, I go through them and decide what items I will sell in the upcoming garage sale,” Mosinski said.
Now-a-days most people can find a variety of tricks and tips to make cleaning easier. When looking on a popular site such as Pinterest, one might find various wacky ways to get tasks done easier or faster. For example, a trick to washing a washing machine tells a person to run a cycle with bleach and then another cycle of white vinegar. This may seem unusual but it might be what someone’s washer needs. Another popular spring-cleaning activity is getting younger kids involved.
