My advice:
Over the course of my lifetime I've used a lot of different mops. Dozens, in fact. About 15 years ago I came across this one at our county fair and never looked back. All of my children bought the same type when they moved out, for the same reason - it's close to mop perfection!

I'm still on my original mop setup, though I have bought additional mop heads for different applications. Mostly I use the fluffy green and the blue scrubby.

For cleaning bathtubs: I reduce the extension on the mop so the stick isn't too long, put the blue scrubby on and literally mop the tub. I'm done in just a minute or two.

When I'm mopping floors I use two mopheads so that I don't have to keep rinsing them.

Afterwards, the mopheads go in the washing machine. Hang to dry.

Amazon sells them now. Here's the basic info: https://www.amazon.com/Starfiber-StarMop-Wet-Microfiber-Cleaning/dp/B009319INC

This is the setup I'd recommend:

p.s. I have no financial or other interest in this company. I'm just an extremely satisfied customer!

After reading your recommendation on the short handled mop I was in the Dollar Tree and found a short handled sponge mop.

I have no illusions about its durability but I wanted to try it before ordering a sturdier more expensive mop.

I tried it this morning and was amazed at how simple it was to clean the tub and tile surround. I squirted the cleaner and let it work for five
minutes, effortlessly swished around a couple of times with the mop, and rinsed the tub area with the hand held shower.

I’m 100% sold on using a short handled mop to clean the tub.

Thanks for the helpful tip!

I had thought about using some kind of device with an extension for the tub. I have a hard time getting to all the spots inside of it. Think I'll visit our Dollar store and see if they have one like you mentioned. I appreciate your post!
 
Will get my aerobic exercise in today.....taking kitty to vet for his once a month nail trim. How do they know? ESP? All I know is he knows and hides, alternating with running when you find the hidey hole.

After that the man is coming for fixing the gas fireplace.

I see money with wings flying out the window.
 
Glorious sunny day, spent most of it out in the garden, just generally tidying, snipping things here and there... and emptying and scrubbing down the Bird bath...

ordered a new Stick Vac online.. I have a Mielle Cat & Dog, Vac, which is brilliant, but it's heavy to do the stairs with, and then hauling it upstairs to do all up here... .. so I bought the cordless stick one .....I also got some rubber stick on wall protectors, I have a door that sticks all the time when it's closed over so when it's pushed hard it hits the painted wall behind it, so I'm going to try these little rubber wall protectors..

@Marie5656 Let us know how that building craft sale went, today. Hopefully, it was fun.
I was surprised it is not scheduled for a Saturday, when more visitors and family members might have come.

I imagine that many there would love the cookbook. :)
I wonder how it did.

We did well. It was actually meant for the residents to sell to other residents. rather than the general public, though some family members came. We were discussing having one more before Christmas, and open it up to others (but have to decide how to deal with the fact that we are a secure building, and all visitors have to be buzzed inside). When we meet abut it next week, I may ask about having it on a weekend, though.
The cook book did well. I am holding a couple copies to give as gifts, and also some to sell to people who want a second or third copy, but are waiting for next months check.

Here is a link to my friends book

Staying up late waiting for my daughter to finish having her MRI. Texted her husband and she is still in the machine, it is 9:30 in Texas and 8:30 here. At least she made it there, she was not sure she could-so much pain. I told her to take a pain pill an hour before she left.

I hope they can give her some results tonight, but I doubt it.
