The House Looks Terrific

Dear FlyLady

I started with FlyLady a couple months ago.  I didn’t do 15 minute increments.  Instead, I picked an area then started decluttering until I had enough to take a load to Goodwill.  I mean a SERIOUS declutter…boxes and boxes went OUT!  (And I haven’t missed a thing I got rid of!)  Once the clutter was under control, I started my morning routine.  I’ve never been a bed-maker, but now I make it as soon as I get up.  I do a morning swish and sweep of both bathrooms before I leave that end of the house.  I grab a laundry basket full of dirty clothes, and as I head to the laundry room, I pick up things that aren’t in their proper places and put them in the laundry basket for easy carrying and put them away as I pass through the appropriate rooms.  I drop the dirty laundry in the washer, then empty the dishwasher.

Once my washer is running, I fix my breakfast and sit down for a break while I eat and drink a cup of tea.  I rinse out my breakfast dishes and load them into the dishwasher and start my kitchen swish and swipe.  Next, I go to the zone for the day and work on it for however long it takes to get everything done.  I keep a tablet and pencil handy to write down things I want to add to my TO DO List for the week as well as anything I need to buy or random thoughts I want to remember.  I put the laundry in the dryer and fold and put them away every day before I’m through for the day.   I do an evening routine which makes it much nicer waking up in the morning.   My house is SO clean.  I finally got around to cleaning my car today, and it’s so sparkling clean I think I need to go for a ride somewhere to enjoy it!

I’m so enjoying my clean, decluttered house.  My husband came in this evening, gave me a kiss and said “the house looks so terrific!”  I’m am enjoying having a housekeeping routine…it’s like playing a game with myself getting everything done.  When I see my shiny sink, clean floors and made bed, I can’t help but smile…AND I find I want that feeling EVERY day, so I do it all over again the next day.  Many things are on auto-pilot now and I don’t even have to think about what’s next;

And then, there’s your products,  First, I ordered the carpet sweeper.  I am IN LOVE with it.  Next, I ordered some purple microfiber cloths.  They are GREAT!  Very absorbent, no streaks, wash up beautifully.  My rubba scrubba brush arrived a couple days ago.  I used it to brush dog hair from the edges of my carpeting…it worked like a wonder!  It also worked terrific to wipe away yuckies from the carpeting in my car prior to vacuuming.  Today, I received the multi wand and the mop handle.  I have 12 foot ceilings in my living room and was amazed how easily it dusted things that were previously too high to reach without a ladder.  It picked up so much dust, but was clean and ready for the next item after shaking it outside.  I found spider webs I hadn’t noticed before and they’re all gone now!  I  can’t help being healthier getting all the dust out of my house.  Tomorrow, I want to use the multi wand to clean under my kitchen appliances.   My FlyLady mop has been ordered and will arrive soon!  I can’t wait!

My experiences with your products make me see how well you know your stuff!  You have a knack for designing JUST the right tool to make doing the jobs we all need to do so much easier.  AND, the fact that your products all do multiple tasks is even better. To top it off, they all are easily cleaned with a trip through the washing machine!   It’s obvious that you’re actually keeping your house and not having a maid come in because your products are exactly what we need for the jobs to be done. Only personal experience gives you that know-how!

So, thank you FlyLady!  My life is MUCH better since I “met” you!
