Dear FlyLady,
After spending half an hour this morning managing my emails with the ‘Delete’ key (and reducing my inbox pile of 285 emails to only 105 by removing stuff I didn’t need people to send me in the first place!) I decided I’d earned a coffee.
I put the espresso maker on the stove top and looked around. Breakfast dishes, already washed, sat on drainer. Laundry running. Kitchen not p******t, but good enough. I looked at those pots. ‘I don’t want to dry those dishes, I washed them, its not fair.” Then it hit me. This was exactly the sort of Stinkin’ Thinkin’ Marla constantly encourages us to ditch!!
I picked up a dish towel. By the time the coffee was made, I’d cleared the drainer AND folded a load of laundry. And I didn’t get my coffee any slower. (What did my stinkin’ thinkin’ imagine I was going to do whilst waiting for coffee to brew? Write a symphony perhaps?!)
With thanks for all you do
