Weekly Flylady Thread 1st February 2010

Posts: 41,152 Forumite
Welcome to the weekly Flylady thread. If you need help organising your week when it comes to housework, or just the motivation to do the dreaded housework tasks you have to do, come and join us, hopefully make it a little easier. You never know, you might start to enjoy it!
Following requests to start things steadier for new members who did not realise the tasks list wasn’t a must do, just an encouragement. There will now be level 1, 2 and 3. Level 1 being very basic it has been requested that this is just one task per day, level 2 in the middle, up to 3 which is more advanced and time consuming. If you want to do level 2 you add the tasks on level 1 with the level 2 tasks, if you want to do level 3 you add the tasks on, easy peasy. Choose a level to aim for but be realistic, if you’ve got a busy day on or are just starting etc aim for level one, if you get higher then great, if not then not to worry its only suggestions. Every room comes back around next week. Trust me some days I'll only be doing level one myself.
THESE LISTS ARE ONLY SUGGESTIONS AND NOT A MUST DO LIST, ALWAYS WELCOME TO POST AND FOLLOW YOUR OWN.
Also adding a declutter mission each day. Another one where it’s up to you if you want to do it or if you need to. This follows requests from members who are looking to declutter. Fling boogies, hotspot clearing, cupboard sorts, drawer sorts etc will all be on this list. Any problems with this of any suggestions do please let me know.
A few of the basics before we start the week
Hotspots are any areas which if one thing gets put there, loads of other things follow!
Daily routines/todailies are anything you need to do today and every day stuff like laundry, swish and swipe kitchen and bathroom, ironing, making beds, vacuuming high traffic areas, making meals etc
Night-time routines are all things which make getting ready in the morning easier, preparing clothes for the next day, making lunches, swish & swipes of the kitchen and tidying the living room before you go to bed plus personals like shower/brush teeth etc.
Fling Boogie/binbag dance - stick on some loud music, grab a binbag and whizz around the house finding items that can go out with the rubbish, recycling, for charity shop, basically anything that will stop it cluttering your home.
Swish and swipe/S&S means have a quick wipe over an area such as a sink or toilet to prevent the build up of dirt. This is usually done on a daily basis
HHE/HHC/HHI Half Hour exercise/challenge/ironing ... run around for 30 minutes to the Benny Hill music frantically cleaning, exercising or ironing.. other music may be used if you prefer!
5GC five minutes gardening.. make it lovely for your family and enjoy it!

1. You don't have to complete the daily list on the same day to get your star
2. You must do levels 1,2 and 3 to get a star but remember the 'extras' are extras and don't count towards the stars!
3. Please make it obvious when you have finished a list so that I know you need a star - for example Monday Done! make sure I can see it!!!!!!
4. If you dont have something on the list then it gets deleted - e.g. clean out pets - if no pets no cleaning out done - delete!
5. Similarly when it says childrens rooms then you should substitute spare room/utility room/conservatory...etc if you have no childrens rooms.
6. If you have no spare room or any other room not on the weekly list then make sure you do any thing thats on that list that you haven't already done earlier in the week and try to substiture similar type jobs - and make sure all the extras are done - make an effort please!!
7. You should not be deleting stuff just because you CBA!!
8. You may delete stuff if you are not physically fit to do something!
9. And for goodness sake remember that the stars are for FUN - there will be no discrimination - no sulking - no striking - no bribing- no cheating - or there will be no stars!!! so there!!
Last week there were a WHOPPING 220 stars awarded with 17 flyers doing all five days lists. Well done everyone!
That means 220 rooms across the country were cleaned and sparkling this week. Still a good figure.:T
w/c 25/01 - 220 (17)
w/c 18/01 - 252 (24)New record to beat!!
w/c 11/01 - 248 (20)
w/c 03/01 - 251 (19)
w/c 27/07 - 120 ( 5)(worst ever!!)
REQUESTS FOR STARS NEED TO BE POSTED BEFORE 8PM ON A SUNDAY.

Evening all,
I'm in as usual, thanks to Pigpen, Toots & Soappie.
The dinner Ds1 made was really nice, he did a great job :Tand now there's no excuse for him not to do it again.;)
I've just done an hour of ironing and am shortly going to do more exercise then have a bath and go to bed.
The rabbits are trying to escape, you'd think that having been out for most of the day they'd want to go to bed.:mad:
