Alright y’all – I’m taking a little breather next week and won’t be checking email/messages or updating here until January 2, 2024. Crazy writing 2024!! I will have some Rant/Revel posts going up next week after Christmas so it won’t be complete radio silence here but I won’t be adding fresh content till the 2nd. Wishing all on the road, safe travels, and wherever you are, wishing you peace, happiness and hope for a meaningful 2024!
As we’ve entered our 18th year of chronicling the happenings in DC I have a few requests: with the unpredictability of social media algorithms and the insanity of twitter/x I ask that you please sign up for our free daily email roundup which goes out every weekday at 4pm – this ensures that you won’t miss a post.
Having said that, you can follow us on Social Media @PoPville on Instagram/Threads, Facebook and of course Twitter/X. And respect to the old school who just come straight here to www.PoPville.com directly.
Finally, if we’re gonna make it in the long term, we’re gonna make it together so please consider joining the community on Patreon here.
Thanks for sticking with us through it all – here’s to a great 2024!!
Cheers,
Dan

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!
Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.
Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
