I've been down that path only once Eric, never again I say.

That is unless someone knows where to purchase Rhinoceros hide gauntlets.

Husband / offspring need to share the joy of cleaning IMO.

JJJ:
Through bitter experience I've concluded that dusting & sweeping, in the traditional sense, is just a waste of time.
Now I open the windows in the dust-affected area, give the flat surfaces a once-over and then blow the lot out into space with an electric lawn blower.
Quick vacuum of any detritus and, bang, you're done!
Lawn equipment is highly under-rated for houskeeping IMO.

[jjjnettie (Jeanette)]

Oh Peter, I agree with you completely with that.
I kept my doors and windows open after the earlier farce, and most of the dust was blow away by semi gale force winds later in the day.
A quick wipe and vacuum today will finish it off.
Another garden implement that has seen use in my house is a plastic garden rake and shovel.
It takes only seconds to rake up all the lego, cars, pencils, books etc that the kids have left scattered all over the lounge room floor. Rake it up and shovel it into the toy box.

Not wanting to cry wolf for the second day, JJJ but the Radar shows a HUMUNGOUS blob of cloud heading your way. And its got red bits in it (hail??AAAGGGGHHHH) More dust????

[jjjnettie (Jeanette)]

yes, I'm surrounded by storms atm. A huge one is about to hit. Pretty speccy looking too.
The clouds are greenish and the wind is cold. Might be hail.
