FLY
Super Duper Fly- I am not a house keeping queen. (Ugh! Cat boxes- the things you do for the ones you love.) The thing I am grateful for today is Flylady.net . IT helps those of us who are motivation challanged or too perfectionistic get help! I am learning things like MAKE YOUR BED EVERYDAY- my mom would be proud!

I am very proud of you! I know you're working hard at that. I could probably use a dose of self-discipline and motivation these days, my bedroom is a big fat messy mess...
Ok - so I signed up and everyday I'm getting like 15 emails just from FlyLady...which stresses me out more than I was before!! :)
I did the same thing. I just unsubscribed. It seems like a lot of good thoughts and inspiration, but I got 25 emails on my first day on the list. Maybe I'll just settle with browsing the site.
You do get a ton of emails, depends on the day. Many times I end up deleting them and not reading them- (you guys know how much I don't stay on top of my email). It is hard for me to even delete one email I have not read- I can't believe how much I hold onto things!
The weekly projects are on the main website. I personally need the stories of inspiration.
I know that the three of you are far better house keepers than I am :) That is why you are married (tongue in cheek)
I learned recently that "nesting" doesn't mean decorating. It means throwing things away. I've been on a total rampage of organization and throwing out things we don't need. It's driving Tim crazy. I really thought I wasn't nesting because I didn't feel all that inclined to decorate. I'm on perma-spring cleaning mode. I cleaned our hall closet last week and threw out 80% of our medicine (expired.) Tim keeps asking me if I've thrown "X" away. We jokingly refer to all this chage as 'the day I ruined his life' because now he can't find anything.
And how the heck to you organize baby clothes? I've been thinking about this in bed for the last few days. Hang them? Fold them? By size? By season? Some items look smaller than their marked size. Then what? And where do you get tiny hangers?
I'm pretty sure tiny hangars are at Target or at the very least Babies R Us or somewhere like that.
It would make most sense to organize by size, right? Because then you'll know if she'll fit the clothes, regardless of the season, and what she will grow out of and will need by the time that season rolls around, but if you organize by season and then get to next summer and all you have are clothes she's already grown out of, then she might have to hang out in a diaper for awhile until you get her some new clothes. Did that make sense?
just my thoughts....
And yes Kim, I think I remember Seth's proposal including something about loving me and how tidy I am...=P
