You sit quietly at home, and then friends or relatives call you and inform you that they will come to visit you right now. The rules of etiquette do not allow taking them in an uncleaned apartment, but you also do not have time to do a complete cleaning. There is a simple life hack for this case.
Of course, you can blow yourself up and start feverishly wielding a vacuum cleaner and a rag. But here's the idea for you: don't do it. It is enough to put things in order only in three places of your apartment so that it looks presentable.
Toilet
Your guests will likely want to at least wash their hands when they arrive. Therefore, in the bathroom, you can quickly wash the sink, wipe the mirror, toilet lid and seat.
Sofa
Move your belongings off the couch and get rid of your pet's fur on it with a fluffy brush or tape. Clean up a couple of chairs or an armchair at the same time in case guests have nowhere to sit.
Kitchen
You don't have to clean up an entire kitchen. You just need to wash the dishes and wipe the glass drink glasses. It is not necessary to wash all the dishes - it is enough to have several clean plates and two glasses per person.
After cleaning, do not forget to change yourself.
The entire preparation should take you about 20 minutes.
