I heard the name in passing many times...and laughed. I KNOW how to keep my house clean, I told myself... I just have to do it...
Weeell...I got bored last Sunday...meandered over here and looked at the thread on clutter and what not...saw the name mentioned again...and decided to look at her website.
*cough* My sink has been consistently shiny for 8 days now.......................... and my fiance' is starting to give me weird looks as I obsessively wipe it out after with a towel after use...
I told him about identifying "hot spots" in the house -- places clutter collects. He immediately started laughing uncontrollably and swept his arm in a wide motion to indicate that the ENTIRE room fell into that category. After I glared at him for a second, I told him the treadle machine and the kitchen table are to not have even a stray speck of dust on them from here out...
And THUS...one small step at a time...I am regaining control of my house. Or it's nice to think I am. ;p
But it's really bringing out my OCD tendencies... I about had a stroke mid-week last week when I saw a FINGER PRINT on the rim of the sink. Sad, considering the way it looked BEFORE I 'met' the Fly Lady...
LOL
