Five-minute Room Rescue (pick any room in the house). Set your timer and go!
Before-Bed Routine
Keep your sink shining
Lay out your clothes for tomorrow
Put out your Hot Spot. It will make you happy in the morning!
We have already been using our timers for two minutes and now
five minutes. Today we are going to learn the power of just 15 minutes.
You can do anything for 15 minutes. This is all about getting started
and giving ourselves permission to stop when the timer goes off. You
cannot restart the timer. This is not a race to finish in 15 minutes,
either! The timer helps to keep us focused on what we are doing. Now, set your timer for 15 minutes and go gather up all the trash you
can find to throw away and put it in the garbage can outside. Then set
your timer for another 15 minutes and sit down and put your feet up and
read a favorite magazine until the timer goes off.
Your timer is a powerful tool to get your started, keep you focused, and
help you to not crash and burn. After you use your timer for 15 minutes
and then sit down and rest for 15 minutes; send an email to:
FlyLady@flylady.net with 15 MINUTES IS POWERFUL in the subject line.
FlyLady Tip:
You can do anything for 15 Minutes. I don’t want you to crash and burn;
pace yourself. Your home did not get dirty in a day and it will not get
clean overnight. BabySteps will get you there.
I keep I timer beside me all day long. It helps me to drink my water, stay focused on work, and not to sit too long at a time.
Today I am praising God for the opportunity to make our little house a H❤ME! (That's HOME for those who don't understand emoji - Autistic Antony) This is our IKEA lamp so far; tonight I will finish it off with some little Rose Buds! I am loving doing up our Bedroom - God has been so very good to me! (PTL!) I Decoupaged some little Birds on the bottom shelf - they are so cute; and a Vintage Sign as well - I Vintaged it; maybe because I am Vintage myself!!! 😉 Jilly... (but very cute vintage - Antony.) 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I have finished my Proverbs 31 frame, I have Decoupaged it and I am so happy with how it came!🌹 Now to Decoupage the little table it is standing on! I am going to do it with Roses to match the room.🌹 I have roughed up the white paint to give the table a Shabby Chic look and I can't wait to see the finished look! So now...I need to cut out all the Roses! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Guess which one I would rather have? Thank you Ross for all your hard work! The garden beds will have Roses and Lavender in them and we are going to put down lawn. I am also thinking of putting in a MagnoliaTree right in the middle of the lawn! 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
I have found a new love!! *Decoupage* and I have decided to Decoupage our Toilet Room in Pink Roses!!! I am looking forward to seeing how it comes! I need just over 80 Roses and I have cut out about 10 so only 70 to go! Love and Blessing everyone! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
The Bedroom Ruffles are up and finished; I decided to trim them with the Burgundy quilting fabric that matched the Burgundy in the Roses on the fabric! 🌹🌹🌹I must say I am very happy with how they have come - I am one happy Homemaker! God amazes me at how much He helps me make a H❤me out of our little house! 💓💓💓💓💓
I am making a sign for above our Bed it is coming along well. It is the first time I have used modeling paste - which is quite fun to work with you can get a nice 3D look!!! It has been loads of fun!!! I love been a Homemaker! 💞💞💞💞💞💞💞
I have finished two of the three bed ruffles! I just have one more to do and then I start on the above-the-bed ruffles!!! YAY!!! I'm getting it done! Finally - who would have thought?! 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝
