I'd never heard of FLYlady either. So I looked it up, joined to get the daily emails (yes, plural) and will have to settle in and see if I too can learn to Finally Love Yourself (myself). Thanks!!!

For those that are doing this along with me but have never heard of a room rescue or a hot spot, a Room Rescue is when you pick the dirtiest room in the house and clean a path in it for 5 minutes. Hot Spots are those areas that no matter how many times you clean them up they "flare" up again with clutter or it sucks things like your keys, the kids backpacks, husbands lunchbox, etc to it. In our house, one of them is the top of the desk in front of the computer. With Hot Spots, your mission is to take 2 minutes and clear off a Hot Spot.

Good job!!

I forgot to tell you guys what I "stole" from the trash company/neighbor. One of my neighbors had put out a wicker basket, perfect condition and still had the tag on it. It is now my sidekick for cleaning. A few seconds ago, I used it to throw a bunch of the kids toys in it for transportation to the playroom. Earlier, I used it to transport random dirty laundry from around the house to the sorting baskets. I was thinking about using it tomorrow when we go to pick dandelion flowers to make dandelion wine.

Jump in where you are at! I was naughty and didn't do my work for the last couple of days but am renewing my efforts.
