Can I come and play? I have tried to do flylady myself and always get discouraged, especially with all the kids running around all the time with homeschooling.

Mel we'd love to have you.
One of the things that I love about FlyLady is the emphasis on trying, not perfection. After all, if I'm wiping out my sink every day, what I don't catch today I'll get tomorrow.

Sink - done shoes - on (not lace up though, I think that would get me a look at the office) Control Journal - Started (here's where I have a hard time with perfectionism. I want typed lists that are immutable, but that's not life.)

Sink shined last night. My version of shoes are on, although I'll have to try better for the doing hair/face thing tomorrow.

One problem I have, Grinity, is that I never actually lose things, in spite of the mess. For some reason, I almost always know where everything (including everyone else's stuff) is. It's a gift and a liability, all rolled in one, as everyone else relies on my memory to quickly locate items. OT, but I think that this is a definite kind of giftedness, and am waiting for the day when IQ test use this as a subscale. As often as I do loose things, I am the 'go to' girl for finding anything. I do know of a male who has this trait, but I think that in general it's the females who excel here.

One problem, I do not have any shoes that lace up except sneakers...hmmmmmmmmmm...I can fulfill the lace up requirement and still be comfy! I actually put on my jeans fresh out of the wash and not the ones I have worn for 3 days that are nice and stretched out. Off to dry my hair. I recently began walking every night also and DS9 has me doing sit-ups, push-ups and stretches that he does to stay in shape for gymnastics. Hey, I might have a clean house AND get back in shape by Christmas. That would be a great gift. Now, if I could just get a job.....
Breakaway Hi Breakaway - love those fresh warm jeans! So glad to hear you are doing some 'loving movement.' Sounds like at least one of us has a future in career counseling. ((wink)) I peeked ahead to day 3: Today you are doing what we have already done. -Getting up and dressing to lace up shoes -Keeping your sink shining Now is the time to start exploring Big Tent. Be sure and read the NEWS. This is where you will find the Daily Flight Plan, the essays and the testimonials. https://www.bigtent.com/groups/flylady Here's my hint. If you aren't already on the Flylady mailing list - get a 'dummy' email account that you only use for Flylady. She clutters up that inbox like I've never seen. So be wise and start a seperate email just for her. I love her essays and thoughts and reminders, but only in small amounts. Be safe. Start off with the 'dummy' email account and then if you want, you can always change your email to you main account. I'm glad tomorrow is a 'catch up day' - I was a little nervous when I saw that shining my sink just once wasn't enough! Smiles, Grinity

I'm still waiting to be able to shine the sink... I do not do dishes, and DH always shines it.
Hmm... maybe I just need to work on step 2?

I'll admit that I could really, REALLY use this, but I may never make it to Day 2. The sink is going to do me in! We have hard water, and hard water buildup around the faucets. Elbow grease is not going to get rid of it. If and when I actually get my shiny sink, I'm going to have to hire a plumber as well, because the faucets leak around the bottom, so the hard water buildup is going to keep coming back.
