For more information on breaking your home into Zones visit FlyLady.net: The Flightplan - this week’s activities. Use it as a guide. Make it your own. Play with it and change it up until it works for you. Just remember to not wear yourself out deciding and planning. It's no good to you if you don't use it.
A note about Flylady. The woman gets on my last nerve. However, there is no denying that this system has worked for me. I don't get her emails or visit her site often. I also don't clean the toilets first thing in the morning. Just a swish or not I'm waking up to a fresh pot of coffee not the Tidy Bowl Man.
I don't do well with encouragement in laziness. In other words, I don't need to be told it's ok to leave the laundry in the basket for another time or the dinner dishes until morning. The day seems so much brighter when I start it with a clean slate instead of yesterdays baggage.
Where is our work ethic? Why are we women not holding ourselves and each other to a higher standard? Why are we insisting instead on bringing others down to our standards instead of encouraging them to press on and get the job done?
