Keeping my house in order is a constant struggle. Over the last year or so I have discovered The FlyLady, who has helped tremendously, but I've fallen out of my routines and will be working on getting everything back in order. I'm going to be following her basic guidelines, and posting the journey here. With lots of pictures.
My house will be naked for you and I am not going to be making excuses. Things are the way they are, and I'm going to be babystepping my way into making them better. I will be posting lots of pictures.
Since my friend died, I have lacked focus to complete most tasks, no matter how small. So using the FlyLady's suggestion of a timer, I will be attacking things ten minutes at a time. Usually it's fifteen, but I seriously can't pay attention to anything that long.
You'd be amazed what you can do in ten minutes, though.
So, welcome to my journey.
I can't believe I'm about to post pictures of this wreck. :)

honey, 10 minutes at a time, is so much better than NO minutes. And having a neat house with a baby and a little boy.... means you have a housekeeper/maid... So you do what you can, when you can.
Brave girl! I couldn't post pictures right now, in the midst of packing our stuff, and with DH just back, and making a HUGE mess.

omg. I hope to don't mind that I found this, but I think it is GENIUS!!! I have such a hard time getting motivated to getting stuff done around my house. Even with the threat of an inspector coming at any moment, I still have so much that I need done every day. You just made my day. lol. GENIUS! I've tried writing contracts for myself (you probably saw it on my refrigerator) but it failed to work. lol. This is great...I may have to snag it in some form or another.
