FlyLady.net: Your personal online coach to help you gain control of your house and home

FlyLady.net: Your personal online coach to help you gain control of your house and home

Yesterday was my first official full day as a FlyBaby. My sink is shiny, I have shoes on, and I know where my laundry is!

I like the idea of setting timers so I don't get overwhelmed. I know the routine thing will work, because that's how DH and I get pets fed and lunches made. I just have to add to my morning and before bed routines, such as they are, and keep at it!

I would be classified as a Payroll SHE.

I actually came across the FlyLady website while I was getting sidetracked from decluttering my computer room, which was a sidetrack from reconciling my bank statements (I couldn't find the one I needed), which was a sidetrack from paying bills (I can't pay bills if I don't know my balance), which was a sidetrack from clearing the mail off the kitchen table!! *blush*

I was actually looking for a website (which I didn't end up finding) that told how to know which mail items, old bills, tax info, etc. to keep and for how long. That was my excuse for not actually sorting out any of the mail in that room for years -- I didn't know what was important to keep, so I kept it all. It looks like a mail truck exploded in there!

But I know I can do this. Baby steps.
