There’s no shame in being a “Monica” (the beloved character from Friends who loved cooking, competition, and always, always keeping her home sparkling clean). Sure, you may be an obsessive “clean freak,” but you probably know you also are less susceptible to getting colds and generally finding gross sticky stuff where gross sticky stuff should never be. And as they say, cleanliness is next to godliness, so you might as well consider yourself a goddess (a domestic one at least). Monicas of the world, if you’re in the market for some new cleaning tools, your kindred spirits on Amazon have plenty of recommendations to keep your home totally pristine.
