I would like to share with you this interesting text I received a month ago from the Women Ministry of my church. It makes me smile…
Is vacuuming on your to-do list this week?
Are you facing this task with a smile?
Maybe these fun facts will help:
• It takes one second to vacuum one
square foot of floor space.
• If you live in the average U.S. home of
2,400 square feet and vacuum once a
week, you will spend 40 minutes each
week and 35 hours a year vacuuming.
• In one year you will vacuum the
equivalent of 3 acres of land.
• It would take you 281 years to vacuum
Central Park in New York City and
33,683 years to vacuum the state of
Ohio. (Time to call in the Merry Maids!)
Do the maths for the size of your home and
the frequency of vacuuming, and you may
find you’re on your way to keeping a
significant part of your city or state clean!
So keep smiling!
