Monday...

Well, it is Monday, a new week and new day! From last weeks yeast experiment, I want to take some time to talk about something not necessarily in your kitchen...

I am talking about the WHOLE HOUSE!

Have you heard of the FLY LADY?

She has an AMAZING website dedicated to YOU getting your house DE-CLUTTERED!

This is from her website:


I know that you have become overwhelmed by your home and the chaos that you have been living in. We are here to help you, and it doesn’t cost you a dime. Keep in mind that your home did not get this way overnight, and it is not going to get clean in a day. We are going to teach you how to take BabySteps and establish little routines for getting rid of your clutter and maintaining your home. This system will work for anyone; it doesn’t matter if you work outside of your home, stay home with children, are retired, or work at home. You can do this; you have just need someone to pat you on the back and give you a great big hug to get you started.
The voices that you hear in your head keep telling you that you are behind and you have to get it all done now. We are going to quiet those negative voices that are beating you up constantly and replace them with a loving, gentle voice that tells you that you are not behind and you can do this one BabyStep at a time!
Please do not get impatient with the process. Everything we do is going to help you replace those voices that put you down. We are here to lift you up and celebrate every little accomplishment.
Your very first BabyStep is to go shine your sink. Don’t listen to those voices that tell you that it not going to help your messy house. This is exactly where I started, and this little habit has changed my life! Take this BabyStep in faith and go do it. 


I have shined my sink a couple of times and well, honestly haven't moved past Baby Step One! So, for the next 31 days I am going to talk about doing EACH and EVERY one of those 31 steps!

Starting tomorrow, my house is going to go from rooms looking like:








to rooms that sparkle!
