"Hi, this is Ann Myrick, and I'm going to tell you today how to clean your house fast. What you want to do is try to multitask. As you're about to jump in the shower, what you want to do is maybe sprinkle some powder or some cleaning in your shower and let it soak a little bit. And then when you jump in your shower you can scrub it real quick, so you've taken a shower, and then you've also cleaned your shower. Another thing you can do is as you're brushing your teeth, while you're brushing with one hand you can just use the sponge and the towel and clean around the counter tops, and dry and then there's three or four minutes where you've brushed and you've also cleaned the counters. If you're downstairs while you're waiting for your cup of coffee, either load or unload the dishwasher. Try to as you find yourself waiting for the toast to pop up, waiting for certain - waiting for the children to get into the car to carpool. What you want to do is just think about picking - what can I do in two or three minutes that will help me tidy up the house? And then once you leave the house, a lot of the house will be clean because you've multitasked and you've got a lot done in just minutes. This is Ann Myrick, and that is how to clean a house quickly."
