Sharing the Blessing Jar

Dear FlyLady,

I have a friend who is disabled and can’t do too much at one time. He had gotten depressed with his clutter and untidy home. I was telling him about my jar of tiles with home blessings, morning routines, and before bedtime routines written on them.

While on the phone with him I would pick a tile out of the jar and set my timer and complete the routine. He would do whatever my routine was along with me while we chatted. He was so excited with getting things done at his house!  I told him that I had extra tokens and I made him a blessing jar!  I made him a FlyLady tool box to go along with the Blessing Jar. He is so excited to be FLYing!

Thank you for helping me to encourage him to clean for 15 minutes at a time!  He loves the purple rags!  The carpet sweepa is so light weight for him to use!

Much love,

Brenda
