Morning Report for 9/21/06

Good morning everyone!

I am working on getting my routines down (including looking at my Control Journal :)) so I'm usually flying by the seat of my pants (hence the title for this blog) or following the reminders from FlyLady as they appear in my inbox.

I leave for work just after 7 am and get home around 6 pm, then I spend the 2 1/2 hours until my son's bedtime making dinner, helping with homework, and just being together - so my housework waits until after he is in bed. I turn on the FLY cd (which I love) and I get going.

Last night after DS bedtime, I spent 10 minutes on my kitchen getting my dishes in the dishwasher, counters wiped down, and scrubbing my sink out so I could shine it. (I hadn't done that the night before so it was a little more to do than usual) I also straightened up my front room/living room by folding all the blankets and arranging the throw pillows and stuff. I then spent 15 min in my bathroom wiping down the toilet and also scrubbing my entire shower down. I was also able to wipe down my sink and surrounding counter.

I did a quick CarpetFlick of my front room (it was too late at night to vacuum) and put a load of clothes in the washer to be started this morning. I also used a Windex wipe (I love them!) to shine my sink...yay!. I put my breakfast (and snacks for my son for the ride home after daycare) in my lunch bag so they were ready to go and made sure my purse/OIB/jacket were by the front door.

This morning I let myself sleep in (I've been sick so I'm trying not to push myself too hard) until the last minute, made my bed, took a shower, got dressed to the shoes in my Air Clogs (tennis shoes give me claustrophobia) , did my hair/moisterize/ makeup, started the washer, put the mathmat and towels up in the bathroom, put all my stuff away from off the bathroom counter, grabbed my stuff, and we were out the door.

Phew!
