IN the Sim residence, dust, dirt and grime have a very short lifespan. These filthy felons are swiftly taken into custody before they can settle comfortably onto any surface. The vacuum cleaner sucks up layers of dust particles, the mop goes on a swabbing spree while wet cloths are rubbed over sticky tabletops.
