Windows

Hungary
May 3, 2018 9:33am CST
As I have a few days off and I am alone at home during the day, I had the opportunity to clean the windows. This is a household task that I don't like and I don't do it too often. And I have some fear of heights, so it is a challenging activity for me. Now the windows are clear and it is a really good feeling. However I am tired. I should clean them at least twice a year. This is my new goal, I hope that I can reach it.

I wash my windows every three to four months, there are many windows in the house, I usually do on three days. One floor per day.

I do it once a year in the spring, which is definitely not enough. One floor per day sounds like a good strategy.

@anikoonline There are 15 windows in my house and 6 of them are double French doors windows. I cannot do everything in one day.

@LadyDuck I have double windows/door, too. 15 windows are a lot. I have only 4 windows and a door, but it takes time, too.

by fear of heights, would this mean your windows facing the tall towers?

@ridingbet Yes, I have agoraphobia. It is not too bad, but I feel dizzy because of the heights.

I meant that we live in the second floor and it is scary to stand on the windowsill and look down.

I have a window cleaner to do the outside of my house but I have to do the inside often because my granddaughter makes a mess with her sticky hands on the glass.

@anikoonline Yes and she is a particularly messy child but she won't be young forever so I guess I should enjoy the time before she grows up.

Having a child around means a lot more cleaning.

I was thinking that I could afford a pro that cleans the whole flat once or twice a year.

@marlina As I heard people can earn well if they offer cleaning service and they have some regular customer. Someone even told me that window cleaning is a speciality here and not every cleaning service provides this.

It is true. It was my exercise for Thursday and I was tired at the end of cleaning.

@Jeffopez I'm sure that I won't clean the windows weekly, but I do clean the flat weekly (hoover, clean the bathroom, etc.).

I wish you lived closer to me and I would hire you to do mine. We hire someone to do the outside but we need to do the inside....

I really don't like cleaning Windows it's because of a dust allergy I have.

It would be really hard to clean anything with dust allergy. Do you take medicines for your allergy?
