Kelly's Missions: Where Will You End Up Today?
You never know where you will end up, or what you will find, when you tackle one of Kelly's Missions! Perhaps you will be hunting dust bunnies in places you never knew dust bunnies lived, or diving for treasures between your sofa cushions, or maybe flinging "unmentionables" from under beds, closets, and dressers. You just never know! Each day during the week, Kelly will add a new mission for whatever zone we are working in. Have fun! Are you ready to FLY with Kelly?
FLY Spot Alert for the Week!
"FLY Spots" are one of those hidden places where clutter seems to accumulate without us even realizing it! Spend 15 minutes in a FLY Spot, and you will be amazed at how much clutter you find!
This week's FLY Spot:
Welcome to Zones 5 and 1- The Living Room and the Entrance, Dining Room, and Front Porch.
Since it's a split zone this week, we are going to be spending a little time in both of our zones. Our Fly Spot Alert this week is in the Living Room. Set your timer for just 15 minutes and go through your entertainment. I mean the movies, video games, etc.... You can make a bag of things you no longer use and trade with a friend, or donate them to charity, or even sell them to a resale shop and get some cash! Just have fun and enjoy your newly found space.
You can't organize clutter; you can only get rid of it! - FlyLady

Thursday's Mission!
Dear Friends,
We are going to have a multi room mission today, it might take you
longer than 15 minutes to do it, so set your timer for each room and
FLY through it!
For the Front Porch, Entrance and Dining Room, put out the fires that
are burning in your hot spots. Get rid of the pile of shoes by the
front door, get rid of the pile of junk mail and put away the
magazines and school papers that are piled on the dining room table.
They are smoldering so get to it!
Love,
Kelly
Wednesday's Mission!
Dear Friends,
We are in Zone 1 this week, that is the Front Porch, the Entrance
area and the Dining Room.
Today you are to sweep your front porch area around your front door.
Shake out your welcome mats and wipe down your front door. This
makes a huge difference in how your home looks. We have a tendency
to neglect this area and yet it is the first thing that people see
when they come to your home.
Spend 15 minutes taking care of this, you will be pleased with the
results!
Love,
Kelly
Tuesday's Mission!
Dear Friends,
Today we are back to the Living Room!
Let's have a detailed vacuuming session. This means to vacuum
the room, making sure to get up against the baseboards and to
get under the furniture. Please be careful that you don't hurt
yourself trying to move furniture. If it is too difficult to get
under the couch or chairs then just try to get as close to the base
of the furniture as you can. Don't forget the corners!!
Have fun and don't get sidetracked!
Love,
Kelly
Monday's Mission!
Dear Friends,
This week we are in the Living Room Zone and I want each and every
one of you to go into your living rooms and stand there. While you
are standing there I want you to look around you and look at the
flat surfaces (end tables, coffee tables, tops of tv's/entertainment
centers, bookcases, mantles, etc)
What do have on these surfaces? Are they the same decorative things
that you have always had? Do you really love them? Are they
cluttered up with too many things? Too many ducks, bunnies,candles,
cows, precious moments etc? I am not condemning those things but
asking you if they still bring you joy and do you still love seeing
them in your living room? Or are you just used to them.
What about the piles of magazines and papers? Do you NEED those?
You would be amazed at how much neater your living room will appear
by just removing a few things.
How much easier would it be to dust these areas without all that
stuff?
Your mission is to get rid of the stuff that is cluttering up your
living room. Take 5 minutes to let go of some things. I am willing
to bet that more of you will find you do want to get rid of some
things because they do not bring you joy and you are just used to
them being there.
Have fun!
Love,
Kelly
