FlyLady

FlyLady

I've written about her last year, I think. I was trying to get on top of my homekeeping and she seemed to be a great tool. She is. But I've also learned that not everything works for me. I'm still subscribed to the FlyLady but what I love most about her are the daily missions she gives out. That's what I try to keep up with.
This week, the target zone is the kitchen. And for today's mission, we are to scrub down our kitchen counters.
Here's the email they sent:
Your mission for today should you choose to accept it: Scrub down
your counter tops, I don't mean to just wipe a rag across them! I
mean you get some hot soapy water and you wipe down the counters from
front to back and side to side. Yes, you have to move the stuff on
the counters to do this. DON'T take everything off at one time and
then plan to put it all back again, I promise you will get
sidetracked and then you will all email me crying that it is all my
fault!! LOL! You just move your toaster (or coffee pot or whatever
this is an example here! :>) ) over to one side and wipe down the
counter, then move over a foot or so, move aside what is there and
wipe down some more and so on. We are not marathon cleaning the
kitchen here, just getting all the crumbs and junk that seems to
build up behind and under things. Have fun! Don't obsess! Enjoy!

And that's what I'm doing today!
