I don't want to be picky but you only have throw in a load of laundry 2 times all week. Is this enough for you? will you end up with mount laundry after a month this way?

Actually, I haven't broken down my days into really itty bitty bits. I tend to toss in a load of laundry whenever I see that I'm about to run out of clothes, if necessary. I've also just culled my wardrobe to about 1/3 its previous size, which means I can wash all of it in about five loads, supposing I were to ignore laundry for two weeks. But thanks for your concern! I can see how not having laundry on my to-do list every day or two would seem like it's not enough.  ~Mouse |

Good for you Mouse! You are doing great!!  I used to do FlyLady. I was doing pretty well, but then I fell off the wagon. I have been thinking about climbing back on. |

I'm working twelve-hour night shifts this weekend, which means that the Saturday and Sunday stuff (other than the routines) kind of went by the wayside, sacrificed to the gods of getting enough sleep.
The Weekly Home Blessing Hour will likely happen on Monday, as well as most of the laundry.

You're doing great, Mouse. Those 12 hour shifts are awful for getting things out of whack. I hope you got some rest yesterday.

Spent most of today sleeping, and am now more or less back on track to get into a proper sleep schedule. I hate night shift for that.

Thanks Merrymaid! I find the night shifts hardest of all to deal with. They just sap my energy. Pegasus48: I am always looking for buddies to join me in my latest attempt to jump on the FlyLady bandwagon, if you want. ~Mouse |
