Flylady

Re: Karen Brown decluttering challenge From: Caro Dean Date: Fri, 26 Dec 2025 15:44:15 CST  One of my Stashbuster friends made a comment about Flylady. Oh my gosh, I hadn't heard of FlyLady in ages! I read all her stuff at one time, and really resonated with the idea of shining your sink. She didn't say "Clean the kitchen!" or "Wash everything!"  The idea was to just get one thing you were proud of, not overdo it or try to change everything all at once.   I never subscribed to her idea of constant email reminders, though. Or even scheduled cleaning. I rebelled against anyone telling me it was time to mop the floor! I can see the floor, and I'll decide when to mop it, and it might not be Tuesday.   When I was younger, I would scrub the tile with a brush, then rinse it more than once, dry it with towels that were about to go in the washing machine anyway, and seal it with (what was the name of that semi-permanent stuff - had to be removed with ammonia???) Then the floors only needed a quick swipe with a damp mop.   Ah, well, if I get down to scrub the floor like that now, I may not be able to get up!    Flylady!!
