I'm Ronnie and you're listening to Clean with me, the podcast where I walk you through cleaning

your house step by step. When you clean along with this show, you'll get more done in less time

out of state was in town and wanting to meet you for coffee? How fast would you spring into action

to spend money or visit with somebody you haven't seen in a while.

Now, I'm not saying that you aren't tired or that your back doesn't hurt,

but I'm saying that the fact that you're physically tired is less of a problem than your lack of motivation.
