Dear FlyLady,
I really want to say thank you for all your help. I am a SAHM.
I have a DS 7 and DD 5 months and the before bed routine saves me.
On school mornings we are up at 5:30am because DS gets on the bus at 6:10. When DS gets home from school we do homework then he gets his bookbag ready for school the next day and picks his clothes out for the next day. I have DH work clothes set out so all he has to do is get up shower and get ready for work. Each night before I go to bed I have DD a bottle fixed so all I have to do is add water and feed her.
This makes our mornings run smoothly. The nights we do not do our before bed routine when we get up the next morning we always wake up late and are running around like chickens with our heads cut off and we always forget something like DS snack or glasses.
Thank you again for helping me get organized,
Leora
Rebecca here: This month we are focusing on the before bed routine.
Part of this routine is gathering up everything you need for the following day and putting it in one place. This place is your launch pad. You will be able to grab and go!
Where is your place? Do you have a bag? A water bottle or your office in a bag?
Please share your own tips or stories on the benefits and blessings of the Before Bed Routine.

Dear FlyLady,
As I am the Queen FlyBaby on the planet, I found that if I brush my teeth before anything else, I won’t eat, then get my bed ready, shower and my nightie on, I will have time to write in my journal, prayers, and read a little then lights out at a decent time.
If I deviate, I can turn 9:00 PM into 1:00 am!
Of course everything is picked up, clothes ready for next day and I have read my FlyLady calendar! This is all because of you!
Thank you and the gang so much.
Carol
