Got Flylady?

Flylady keeps me in line. This wacky genius is responsible for millions of 'flybabies' getting organized all over the world. I credit her with keeping me sane in the world of housekeeping, calendar management, and all things mundane. If you sign up for the daily email digest, Flylady will send you an assignment every day that takes no more than ten minutes. I swear my house stays clean with 10-20 minutes a day and an hour on Sundays. No joke. Because personally I have no time for the several hour, sweat 'em up yuckfest of cleaning the whole house at once. Flylady also has bite-sized missions for kids to accomplish. For example, this morning my kids organized their crayon/paper/craft mess. In the same ten minutes, I mopped all three bathroom floors. (Flylady coaches you to time yourself and move quickly!)

I can only hope that bit of brown something on the powder room floor, which I scrubbed and scaped and finally had to pick off with my fingernail, came from a member of my immediate family.

Please do comment and share your sanity secrets with the rest of us!
