Re: FlyLady chat thread!
I started her a few years ago, then dropped out. I got too overwhelmed by the emails and simply never gave it a chance. Just started again, and it feels great. I do what i can and remind myself that she says so often to start where you are and not beat yourself up. It is helpful to know there is a plan and a time limit also. I get overwhelmed when i start cleaning because one dirty thing leads me to another...so i never want to start. Knowing that everything will be taken care of in time is a relief. Gives me permission to stop cleaning once i get going so i don't get burned out. I also like how she calls it Home Blessing. I thought of that this morning when i was washing sheets and cleaning walls. It really does bless a home. My biggest struggle is that DH is close to being a hoarder. He does not part with anything. i want to secretly get rid of things, but i don't think that would be right. And without fail, he asks for that thing i got rid of (that hasn't seen the light of day in YEARS) within a month of disappearing.
