That sink thing is awesome...I seriously need to get some bleach to do that. (I've already got comet) Some of her stuff doesn't apply so well to me since I'm in a small studio apartment, but I really like some of her ideas and her methods. Except the shoes part. I HATE shoes in general and only wear them when necessary (usually to keep my feet from freezing in the winter)Jainahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05666481569069955190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6558738156708349769.post-16477849582060688182009-01-09T14:59:00.000-08:002009-01-09T14:59:00.000-08:00I LOVE Flylady.net.

I always make my bed as well, and like to at least put the dishes in the dishwasher, so they are not all piled in the sink. LOL. And one of my goals has always been to take time for some fun! Makes life more interesting. <BR/><BR/>Your goals are good ones, Jaina, and I'm sure you will attain them. You seem to have the mindset to do so, and that's half the battle.<BR/><BR/>Take care!<BR/><BR/>Hugs,<BR/><BR/>RenieRenie Burghardthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02660484248593903002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6558738156708349769.post-68446070072246419942009-01-07T12:54:00.000-08:002009-01-07T12:54:00.000-08:00Johnina-Sounds like a good plan to me ;)Johnina-Sounds like a good plan to me ;)Jainahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05666481569069955190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6558738156708349769.post-20336689491560573592009-01-07T12:49:00.000-08:002009-01-07T12:49:00.000-08:00If I fail mine I think I'll just blame it on the h...If I fail mine I think I'll just blame it on the hubby! =)Bottles Barbies And Boyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17548004965840933517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6558738156708349769.post-37564615162125179102009-01-07T11:42:00.000-08:002009-01-07T11:42:00.000-08:00Gramma Ann-I definitely agree with you on the bed ...Gramma Ann-I definitely agree with you on the bed making...it just looks nicer.

At this rate I never will get all my unread books read. heehee! <BR/><BR/>Since I live in a small apartment, I find the one thing that helps me keep my sanity, is the first thing I do every morning is make my bed. It just helps to make the clutter look less. At least to me it does! <BR/><BR/>I have no set goals, except to keep after the clutter!
