This is how you make a control journal a la Flylady. I dont have one but I'm working on it.

Jas · 17/09/2007 15:28

What is a control journal? !?!? You call yourself a FLYlady?!?

(It is writng down all your routines and stuff and keeping it together as poper FLY people do. I don't have one but have a pared down verson stuck to my fridge)

Ruby Ah, right. It is big and I seem to have a ton of stuff in my handbag as it is. Let's think: purse, change purse, loyalty cards holder, glasses cleaner, cheque book and pen (sorry, couldn't resist that one!), diary (not OM), mobile, comb. I do turf everything out regularly and see if I can bin anything. Hmmm. I'll give the pocket one a go, I guess and then I've got all year to decide which (if any) Filofax to go for!

EHM When you say feck, I imagine you as Father Ted. Dh and I loved watching that programme. I have to laugh when you or luda say something I don't expect you too! I don't know why I expect people to never swear, I certainly do. The kids learnt a very naughty word one time when I was making a trifle (a packet one at that) and got the instructions wrong!

Right. Must get on with the beef casserole to cook and freeze now. And I must finish putting away the food shopping. This kitchen is a disgrace!

FunkyGlassSlipper · 17/09/2007 17:06

even more that EHM swore

BiancaCastafiore · 17/09/2007 17:20

I too am mostly that EHM swore she seems so sweet usually!

I haven't got an OM Diary/calender or anything or a control journal so am clearly completely out of the loop

I got off to a false start this morning, feeling smug about getting through my morning routine was all very premature!
I did put washing in the wm early this morning, but it's still there, wet.
The kitchen was s&s earlier but you certainly wouldn't know it now.
I never did clean the loo.
I have been to the bank and bought myself a new top though

EHM · 17/09/2007 17:23

the fact that I was driven to swearing on line indicates how hurt I was by your laughter

BiancaCastafiore · 17/09/2007 17:24

Awww (((hugs EHM))) I'm sure they didn't mean it

Jas · 17/09/2007 17:44

I did

FunkyGlassSlipper · 17/09/2007 18:28

me too

Those of you who dont chck out the fly website often then you really should. I've found babstepping again has made me remember the point of flylady in the first place. Itis about organising your life/house as opposed t just doing housework...

glitterfairy · 17/09/2007 18:58

Hello everyone am just tidying up and making tea after getting in from work. Knackered but have done some washing and changed my sheets today.

Jas · 17/09/2007 19:05

I agree FGS. I've found it more helpt his time than when I first started, as I've done al(most al)l of the babysteps properly
