Happy Belated Birthday Morgan !!

2005-07-27T21:36:00.000-07:00

Amy and her DH Casey's baby girl Morgan had her very first birthday on July 23rd!

We wish her a happy belated birthday, and many many returns of the day!

Congrats Amy, and I LOVE your tagline, which I'm quoting here:

Cleaning and cooking can wait for tomorrow,
For babies grow up, I've learned, to my sorrow.
So quiet down, cobwebs, dust, go to sleep.
I'm rocking my baby, and babies don't keep.

Love and Blessings to Amy, Casey and "Little Miss" Morgan :)

Summer Routines ?

2005-07-05T20:38:00.000-07:00

Have any of you had some cool successes with your routines?

Have any of you incorporated the email reminders into your routines, or followed Kelly's missions in the "Zones"?

Have any of you mastered your routines and finally made it to the Detailed Cleaning List?

I was doing good earlier in the year, but fell off several months ago when I became ill, and just never got back into it. And boy how we've suffered!

Well, summer is here, so it's time for my son and I to start some new routines.

I can't give my son too much or he becomes whiny, and I become a nag, and that is NO fun.

Flylady is incorporating 4 new habbits of her own this month - Go FlyLady! I'm not that ambitious, so I'm incorporating two, possibly 3 in my summer routines.

Do any of you have any suggestions for those of us who are struggling? Or have anything else you want to share? Maybe just commiserate, LOL!

We're still trying to figure out this "blog thing", so please bear with us, it's a "work in progress". Feel free to make some suggestions.

And feel free to join in, if just to say "Hi"!

As FlyLady says: You're not behind, don't try to catch up! Just jump in where you are!

I have several email accounts and have subscribed to FlyLady.net with a few of them. I've been receiving the emails in an account that I don't use very often.

I just now re-read the letter that FlyLady sends when you subscribe, and decided to subscribe again, with my most used account.

Part of why I'm not flying well is because I'm not seeing these emails, and they are the meat of the flying system. Yes, FlyLady has many tools and resources, but this really is the heart of it.

Are you signed up for her emails? If not, why not? Read the subject lines and delete whatever you don't need at the time.

And to those of you who are flying, say Hello and give us some tips, LOL!

C'mon, let's fly!

Men and Their Clutter

2005-06-30T10:19:00.000-07:00

I just read this post from Marla's husband about his "talk" at the May FlyFest in Charlotte.

I'm not married so I can't comment from experience, but I found it interesting and thought maybe some of you "Fly Wives" might find it of interest as well.

In my case, I have a kid who can't get rid of the packaging his action figure came in. He still wants to keep the pictures it has of other action figures. Is this some strange way of retaining his adolesence? LOL!

Here's FlyLady's "Robert's" take on men's clutter: http://www.flylady.net/pages/robert_story.asp

Hey Fly Ladies!

Hi There!

We've created this blog for fly ladies in Southern California to encourage eachother in "flying"!

We follow the advice of FlyLady (Marla Cilley - The FlyLady @ http://flylady.net/) who always tells us that "You are not behind, don't try to catch up! Just jump in where you are!"

Go check out flylady.net to see what we're about. If you're already familiar, then you know this place is for "us".

This is a blog for all of us to encourage eachother, share our experiences, our accomplishments and our failures - everything.

We hope that you like it and that we can benefit eachother, in any old way, and any new way!
