I'm already behind......

I signed up for FlyLady e-mails again (www.flylady.com).....you know the lady that helps you get your house in order and keep it that way. It's not that my house is bad......it's just that it wasn't as clean as I'd like for it to be and things were out of place. It just seems like I get slower and slower at keeping up.

Well, I signed up Sunday, I think, planning on starting Monday, which didn't happen. My get up and start didn't want to start that day. The project wasn't hard.....just swish and wipe the bathroom.......it didn't happen.....and clean the light fixtures in your kitchen. Okay, I can do that.......wrong!!! I didn't even get started on Monday so I thought that I would just add it to Tuesday's work.

Anyway, on Tuesday I decided to do the lights in the dining room too. That made 6 globes and two dusty lights to wipe off and one florescent light. I got the globes all cleaned.....but not the other things......thinking that I would get them done the next day. Then Tuesday's task we were suppose to wipe down the front of our kitchen cabinets. I was excited about that one because I really need to do that. Well, I didn't get to that.......

Ok, now I'm two days behind with one job partially done!! Wednesday, I had to get ready for Royal Rangers. We've been off for Christmas break and this was our first day back. So I spent the day getting my lesson ready. I was really hoping that they'd cancel church because of the cold but that didn't happen.

So, on Thursday......I finally got the lights ALL washed and back up!!! (Glen's cleaning his side of our closet so I'm interrupted every little bit with questions.....Grrrrrrrrrrrr!!!.....Plus he's trying on EVERYTHING!!!!) Oh ya', our task for Wednesday was to clean out everything that's out dated in the fridge.......which I didn't have time for.........so I'll just add it to Thursday's task after I get all the other things done........ya' right!!!!

Thurday's task was to take everything off of the kitchen counters and wipe the counter down........I got one counter done with the cabinets wiped down (Tuesday's task) that's over that counter.

Today's task is to mop the floor in the kitchen........I'm just giving up on that one and the fridge!!!!!!!!!! So far I have the counters ALL wiped off......the lights are still clean......and I'm working on getting the front of the cabinets all wiped down and I have the greasy ones left to do........plus I have the grandkids all ready over for their sleep over tonight!!!!!

Next week I've got to plan better or start writing things down.......this FlyLady stuff is confusing!!!! At least it will be in another part of the house........maybe the bathroom.....it's not too bad in there........oh, but the light fixtures aren't clean......Bummer!!!!!!

Oh, and I did finally get started on the swish and wipe......I think that it was on Thursday.......I'm suppose to do that one everyday but going by looks I think that once a week might be good!!!!

I was wondering.......am I suppose to be cleaning other things besides the daily tasks.......if so I may as well give up now!!!!!
