Cobwebs, witches and ghouls await us as we head into October. The weather is changing (here anyway) so what better time to start, or restart, new routines!
This is a long running thread, but we are a friendly bunch and all are welcome to join in.
Do NOT sign up for the Flylady emails - it's an excessive amount sent every day.
There are Baby Steps for starting out, add one thing at a time to start good habits and routines.
There are 5 zones that we will rotate through, don't worry about finishing it all this month, it'll come around again next month! Flylady is NOT about perfectionism!
Zones:
- Entryway, porch and dining room
- Kitchen
- Bathroom and one other room
- Master bedroom
- Living room
Daily missions: each day of the week has a different mission.
- Monday: Home Blessing (or as we call it, home bleugh)
- Tuesday: plan & play
- Wednesday: anti-procrastination
- Thursday: errand day
- Friday: clean car & purse out a week. It's also date night (with your significant other, or friends, or yourself!)
- Saturday: family fun day
- Sunday: renew your spirit
Common acronyms we use:
- LOL: load of laundry (washing is certainly NOT funny!)
- DW: dishwasher, we are not rotating wives by any means, although an extra pair of hands could come in handy sometimes 😆
- LMS: lose/lost my shit
- DNLMS: did not lose my shit
There are more, feel free to ask us to explain something. I'll try to update links every day, although if you can, it's worth downloading the app, you can even have it send you notifications (although I only have it for when the zones change). You can also modify the tick lists to suit your home & lifestyle.
Links are below 👇 if I happen to not add links in time, they do update at midnight for you. Well, they should but there is some technical difficulties on their end while they update the website. You can also check out the Facebook page, she updates that daily multiple times
