Cleaning & Laundry - February 2007

I have 4 cats and 2 dogs and need to wash my comforter frequently, but in general how often should you wash your comforter?
How can you clean it without ruining it in the washer? Even "super-sized" washers at the laundromat have ruined comforters for me....

I have tried paint thinner and it didn't work. I think it is strange that washing doesn't get it out because it is water-based paint. Any suggestions? It is my favorite shirt and got paint on it at a birthday party my kids went to.

So, I started with a through cleaning of the sink... But noticed that
the cupboard above the sink was not at all good: stains on the doors, on door knobs, door-knobs greyish instead of yellow. I started on it.
When I did the doors, I opened them to do their rims, and noticed that the inside was not white but somewhat stained. So, I removed
everything from the cupboard, and cleaned the inside. Then I cleaned all the things that were inside, put them to dry on the table, and noticed that the side of it, the one near the stove, was all covered on oil spots. I started on the sports. Did them, and then looked up and saw that the cooking hood was greasy inside too, and spotty, so I did the inside and then the outside. While doing it, I looked behind the stove, and the wall out there which is hard to reach, was not good as well. But I did not have strength to do it, so I just out everything back into the cupboard, washed the top of the table, scrubbed the floor, because while I

I am looking for a new washing machine with hot and cold fill, but only cold fill seems to be available. My friend told me that is is supposed to be more eco friendly, but i cant see how as it takes longer to heat for a hot wash esspecialy as the cold water is straight from the mains, thus using more energy to heat the water.

I'm 19 and been living with my hubby for about 5 months. we've only been married about 2 weeks.

We live in UK where there's no Cenrtal air conditioning in our flat. Could that be the cause of all the mold/mildew that forms everywhere? Well, it's gets all around the window edge and blinds. Also, it gets along the bottome of the walls, in corners, and behind things. Also, it's all over my hubby's guitar case , and my suit case?

***How can I keep it from occuring?
***What's the best way to clean it off the walls? (white painted)
***Will bleach-based cleaners kill the miold or only dye it?
*** should I leave the windows only more??
(In my defense, I come from Texas, and it's usually not this cold, so I tend to want to close the windows all the time! )

Thanks for any help you can offer! :-)
