greenbee try to take a quiet restful moment and think back to when you last used them and trace their movements - try to think of what you were dealing with at the time - I know you were paking /arranging to go away but more specifically i.e. did you take a piece of jewellery out or put something in - if you can recall what you were doing then go through the motions of doing it - i.e were you at the safe and therefore did you hide the keys near there or where you were before you used the keys - IYSWIM
electric cupboard, top of wardrobe, under wardrobe, camera bag, inside a cup or a mug at the back of the cupboard, in the cutlery drawer, on your keyring,

I was putting my jewellery away before I went and I cannot for the life of me remember what I did next, except decide not to put the keys where I normally do... (I must remember to give one of each of my spare keys to SIL as she's organised and reliable!). I didn't even think about getting anything out of it until Christmas, which gives you an idea of how often I wear my jewellery...
I've checked all coat pockets, located the spare pillows (pillowcases/under pillowcases are in the wash. Pillows smell musty but I don't think I'll have time to wash them before the weekend, so I might send them to the laundry with the new duvet afterwards). I've even checked the travelling writing desk I keep my shooting medals in (not something I look at more than once every couple of years!). I will just have to go through each room methodically leaving no stone unturned (or at least, nothing un-dusted!)0 -

Sorry to be a bit dense, but is the list of chores on the 1st post the same every week? That is, there isn't a new list for each week?
Thanks so much for any replies :-)0 -
Hi youngmum,
we start a new thread each week, so you'll find it on post one of the new thread.

Hi
I am not sure if it is the right time to post my question . And maybe it is a stupid question ....after all it is Flylady thread... but how do you manage to do all these chores!?!?
I work full time and came home from the office only an hour ago... and unfortunately, I have no energy to pick up things, swish clean & wipe.... etc.
How are you Flying this, Ladies?0 -

Hi Tomato,
The answer is most of us struggle which is why we post on the thread! The idea is try to motivate each other to do a little each day rather than drown at the weekends. It does get easier once you start to get on top of it. Other people do everything in a mad fit at the weekend.
