I just found flylady thanks to someone's mention of it. Very helpful site! I haven't done much yet. But the 27 fling boogie or whatever it's called is certainly helpful. I zipped through the house and did that and felt good about it. I have been slowly working on getting de-cluttering jobs done on my own and had broken down the housework into tiny baby-steps already. When I was really depressed this fall I didn't do much of anything, though I did keep up with my laundry this time. Thank goodness dh likes to cook or I might have starved! I've started weeding out books in a major way. In the past I would let go of a few at a time but I am putting whole stacks of them out in the garage for a yard sale. It really feels good!
Also, I love all the clever acronyms. I am definitely a SHE and my house certainly has CHAOS! I am trying to get husband on board for the 27 fling boogie and the 15 min cleaning spurts. And I ordered the calendar. I have been using SAndra Boynton's Mom Calendar for the past few years which helps...it was nice having several different columns for different people or activities (I used one column for yacht club racing schedule, one for hubby, one for me, one for my mom's comings and goings to visit and one to track pet concerns and appts.)
But, silly as it seems, I'm looking forward to the stickers! :)
Thanks to all those who mentioned their success with flylady. I'm glad I checked it out!
