Getting Organised

[melwil]

After following a link from sangerin's LJ, I've been going through the FlyLady website. It struck a bit of a point with me, because I've always been rather messy and unorganised in my personal spaces.

I've been getting better since I've started living with Matt. He's one of those impossibly organised and tidy people. When he does something, it'll be done neatly, and then it will be easy to put away. When I do something (cooking, craft, writing etc) it's big and messy, and I'm always distracted before I finish. In the last year or so I've been better at keeping common areas clean, but I'm still rather unorganised and untidy.

So it's rather cool to follow some of the ideas on the site, and in less than a week, to look around at my mostly tidy house. My room is tidier than usual, and all my teaching stuff is organised. It turns out that I really like being tidy and organised.

I think its about time I revisited flylady myself.

Im in a total mess at the moment. Every aspect of my life. Time for a sort, purge, organise.

Cheers...

PS I havent forgotten. I feel rotten about not finishing and/or delivering my said pieces.

Yeah, I became aware of FlyLady a year or so ago. Unfortunately, I still haven't mastered keeping my sink clean.

Need to get off my Franny more.

I'm doing ok on the sink - but then I only have Matt to mess it up for me, and I'm home a lot at the moment - next week when I'm working every day is the real challenge *g*

The thing about FlyLady is it's incredibly hokey, but it works for me.

So far it's working for me really well - I actually love being dressed for the day - and having my hair done - I feel that I'm getting through 'fandom' stuff better as well.

Matt wants me to tell his mother that it's not his fault though *g*
