This post is part of Mashable's Spring Cleaning Week. Just a little something to distract you from the eternal dread of constantly wiping all those fingerprints off your screen.

It's spring! The birds are chirping (probably), the flowers are blooming (in some locales), and you may be feeling immense pressure to clean your home.

Spring cleaning can be refreshing. It can be cathartic. And, yes, having a spotless apartment is a pleasant way to kick off a new season.

But spring cleaning can also be the worst thing ever. Why? Because cleaning sucks and is boring. Bleach smells bad. Dealing with all your things can be exhausting. And you probably have a lot of other stuff on your plate!

So give yourself a little break this year. It's possible to "spring clean" without reallyspring cleaning — that's why we've created this extremely gentle checklist just for you. Get a little done in each room, get a little done on social media, and then go out for burgers or whatever. Sit outside. It's spring!

You don't have to do the most, after all. You can just do some.
