Welcome to the February Fledglings thread. Before we get started we have some important notices?:
- The Fledglings are a long running thread, some of us have known each other for several years but newcomers are always welcome.
- We follow the Flylady way (somewhat flexibly) and we adapt it to suit our lives and needs. That also means we chat a lot too, it is a general thread about life, as well as Flylady.
So the fly lady system there are rules and we have adaptations.?
- NO perfectionism - life’s too short.?
- Something is better than nothing and sometimes good enough really is good enough.?
- This is not about the housework, it is about having more time to do fun stuff. Don't ever feel guilty about doing stuff with the kids over doing the housework. The kids are more important.??And the practical adaptations.
- For newbies to the Flylady site and system everything you need will be posted here in the form of links. The homes is divided into zones where we spend one week each on a monthly basis. Within the zones we do babysteps and decluttering - the babysteps are little daily habits to get into, decluttering speaks for itself. As we progress we start doing missions (a more in depth task in that weeks zone). We may even get to detailed cleaning once we have decluttered. There are also daily tasks, on a weekly basis.
WARNING: Unless you want a very cluttered inbox full of gushing quotes and testimonials DO NOT subscribe to the Flylady emails from the site.
So, welcome on board and lets get Flying in February!
