It's time to start thinking about spring cleaning, here are several steps to help you with your tasks.

Step #1:  Launder The Bedding:  wash the bed skirt, duvet cover, shams, and pillows.  Give them an extra spin cycle to make drying faster.

Step #2:  Wash the Shower Curtain:  it can probably go in the gentle cycle on cold, but check the tag.  Set dryer on low and remove and rehang curtain before it's completely dry.

Step #3:  Freshen the Furniture:  Remove cushions and vacuum every upholstered surface, including the backs, with the brush attachment.

Step #4:  Deep Clean in and Around Appliances:  Wait until the fridge is nearly empty, then wipe it down, inside and out.  Do the same for the stove and dishwasher.

Step #5:  Dust Under Electronics:  Nobody's asking you to unhook and move everything. That would be nuts.  Just get one of those super skinny dusting wands and run it under the components.
