I'm mad, I tell you.

All right.  As always, I'm attempting to use blogging as a form of accountability.  This time it's my attempt to use Flylady (and flylady, as I just discovered) to get the house under control.

Should I make a filter, or just drivel for everyone to read?

I'd be interested to hear how it goes...

I definitely want the drivel. Checking out the site soon... it's FREE!!! Cool!

if you do make a filter, put me on it.
I've tried to fly lady several times...

haven't tried lately

I'm also curious to hear updates.

I have some friends who do Flylady on an online forum I'm on. I haven't tried her stuff, but I find it interesting to hear about...

Sigh. I think I'm going to start, too. I would really like to have a clean house, but I've resisted Flylady for a while because my sister got some advice from it that I thought was really dumb (like storing all your CD cases and putting your CDs into folderbook things--I mean, your cases still take up space somewhere, those folderbook things always seem to scratch CDs, and it doesn't provide encouragement to get rid of the ones you don't really like). But I've since looked into it and found that most of the advice looks pretty good. Okay, I'm in. I'm going to go shine my sink.

Here's my plan: I'm doing what makes sense for me. I mean, she says "get up and take a shower and do your makeup" and so on, but that's not so feasible with a 2-year-old who wakes up at 6:30 am. So I'll adjust as necessary.

But what great about flylady is that modifying it for your own schedule is exactly what she suggests. I mean I think just basically means get going asap and don't just stay in PJs until you can't stand it any more.

I'm totally in remeber a few years ago when I pointed flylady out to you?
Obviously I haven't really been able to "Fly" but neither have I completely abandoned it yet either.

ah, the various forms of anti-feminist Marxian re-production in disguise as techno-savvy blogs.

Never fear. There will be a huge rant about gender and FLYlady down the line... It's percolating in my head.

i hope your kid hasn't read Gossie yet, cuz if it arrives on time she'll get it from me in Arizona.

[alphasarah.livejournal.com]

Nope, we only own Booboo and Ollie is out from the library right now. I'm sure she'll love more goslings to read about.

[chargirlgenius.livejournal.com]

I'll read. Now stop posting and go shine your sink!
