No delayed exit for clutter - March Flylady Thread 2019 for fledglings!

[ChicCroissant]

What would a combo of exit and clutter be, clexit? Exclutter? Perhaps we should just stick with declutter ....

Welcome to the March Flylady thread, we’d love to have you with us as we chat and work our way through our houses in March. Flylady uses the zone method of cleaning so we’ll be focusing on a different area of the house each week – we will post daily links to the Launch Pad on the Flylady website which gives all the details of the current Zone, daily missions and babysteps.

Newbies are always welcome so feel free to join in at any time. Flylady does recommend decluttering your house first, so if you are not ready for the cleaning routines yet it’s fine to focus on the decluttering bit – add the babysteps in if you wish.

Um, Hi!

Can I join/rejoin? Housework and life have got away from me a bit recently and I could do with a bit of help.

Welcome pushme

Foxes , Zoo think i also need to go back to basics. I have almost made it through the massive washing back log today, this has been going on for WEEKS so is a big achievement!

Hi Pushme, I remember you, but I have namechanged a couple of times. Welcome back

Yay! Pushme is that really you? - It's bloomin' brilliant to "see" you! [Fantastic when lovely "old timers" come back] How are you? How are things? As you've probably gathered, I am still not on top of the housekeeping

It is me

Hi meet, can you give me a clue?

I am very much not on top of the housework. Decluttering half heartedly today! My fly baby turned 8 on Friday!!!

Eight???? Crikey! That went quickly. Hope you are all thriving!

Zoo sorry you are feeling rotten.

And congrats on conquering laundry pile I've.

🐟 🐟 for birthday moggies!

Hope you managed a rest later on today Icarriedaturnip after your early start this morning.

Welcome back pushme and happy birthday to the zoo kitties.

I seem to have missed the memo on the fledgling nap today, unfortunately.

Agree about going back to basics. May even look at the sneak peek for the week that arrived in my inbox yesterday and try to stick to it

I wish the Flylady book was available on Kindle, I have Kindle readers on my tablets, phone and laptop - never without reading matter!

Well done I've
Welcome back push
Little ones fed,chivvied to shower and sort school stuff.just ranted at dd2 for not get off phone to shower/sort bags before lil zoo goes up.id been asking 20 mins,our dinners in 5...my head did not appreciate yelling.i not feel it pounding in a nauseating fashion.dinner us less and less appealing as my ears hurt in time with head

SC were they hot X buns under grill

Eight? How did that happen?

In the early days of the thread I was MrsD....
Then variations on Who Knows...

Today has been unproductive. Now watching Crufts. Oh well.

Yes. Sorry Zoo left out the buns! (Hot and slathered in butter.)

Unproductive here too Meet. Got back from church and did not a lot else. Just watched Crufts too - poor creatures - desperate to shave off all the foofy fur and let them roll in a puddle

Hi Meet! I remember you too of course! I still have ellie and DEM on my fb so i’ve never really felt like i’ve Completely been away

Of course going back to basics from tomorrow means we have to do the home bleugh...it's been quite liberating not doing all that on one day anymore! But actually it did work for me in getting the week off to a good start ah well, tomorrow's another day and all that and I can't be any grumpier than today surely?! I think I've had a serious case of hormones today!

Oh and sorry hello to the new and also the returning people!

Can i confess?

Confess away I've

I have never even read what home bleurgh entails let alone done it

I am such a fake flyer

I'veSometimes I wish I'd never read it.as I have I feel more obliged to do it not lately tho

Well, a confession from me too. I know perfectly well what a home bleugh is and I've never actually done it. I couldn't possibly achieve all that in an hour, even with my fairly small house. Change all the beds in 10 minutes? I don't think so. Maybe strip them all in 10 mins but then there's washing, drying and putting them all back on again.

I've never done a control journal. I think it would be good, but I just don't get round to it.

One of the vloggers I watch got the zones from Flylady but she has more of them and does one job a day (eg one day she dusts the whole house, another day is vacuuming) so you could break it up like that if it's easier. How Jen Does It

Anyway, for the dedicated fledglings next week is main bathroom week and one other room, with a suggestion of hitting the stash and dash spots of which I have many and I am going to do a bit in the main bathroom each day (I'm out a lot this week, which doesn't help really ...) as we are swamped with toiletries!

Launch Pad for Monday
