i'm flying high tonight - shined the sink - and moved onto the stove!!! all while having a lovely chat with my daughter about how well she is doing at school. She saw the emails coming through from Flylady, and asked me about it. I said to her "well you know how I encourage you, and help you work through things? Well flylady is like that for me..." DH walked out the kitchen and just about did a jig for joy because the kitchen was sparkling lol.
I have started the control journal... will let you know how I go with it. I like the concept because it gives me direction.. rather then flitting all over the place and not getting anything done, and ending up cranky.
I feel like I have achieved more today then I have in a while - and all I did was shine my sink.
Oooh Vicky me too!!! I re-started FLYing today and only shined my sink but by golly my kitchen looks sparkling because of it! All dishes are put away and it's spilled over into the loungeroom which is also tidy....and all by 8pm! Gotta love FLYing......
*stands up* My name is ange, and i have a MESSY house!
That's it! I've had it. i need to get my A into G.
I joined the flylady a few months ago and then preceded to delete the emails beofre reading them?! So Then i unsubscribed!
SO............i have re-joined. (Kaz i just went to the website and clicked on get started then there was a link to the yahoo thingo to get emails. (hi, by the way! missed ya )
My main prob is i spend all babies sleep time on the PC under the guise of not wanting to wake her. Who am i kidding?!
Looking forward to a little motivation from you ladies!
I don't know a lot about how all this works but I took one bit of advice which was to declutter for 15 minutes and I swear I have done more housework in the last 2 days then in the last month
I have cleaned my boys bedrooms and rearranged them and that was just today. yesterday I cleared the clutter from my lounge..
tomorrow I am doing nothing cus im exhausted Although I might do the kitchen cupboards
i don't read all the emails. i flick until something catches my eye, then I read it... will have to look for the australian flylady now... so i can get emails in the right time zone.
lol Ange at pc procrastinating during sleep time - i'm guilty of that one too... but I think my biggest problem has been not knowing where to start... and then it all gets overwhelming, so I don't do anything. helpful hey?!
so i've thrown away my list of shoulds, and are concentrating on babysteps one day at a time. for today, made yummy lasagne from scratch, my sink is shining, so is the stove, the kitchen looks lovely, I made the bed this morning, and "swished and swiped" the bathroom after I had a shower, put a load of washing on, to be hung out tomorrow morning... so I'm reaching over and patting myself on the back.
