My regular readers know from my repeated attempts to get off the ground with FlyLady that I am a Sidetracked Home Executive. Cleaning and tidying do not come naturally to me ... but I realised today that there is one area of housekeeping I do enjoy. Laundry! I actually like ironing. I also like hanging out and taking in washing - particularly that nice, clean, fresh-air smell when taking down the clean clothes.
And no, I'm afraid my laundry is not always up to date. And yes, the ironing pile does build up ... but I do usually manage to do better in this area of housekeeping than most others.If you wish, you may call me Mrs.Tiggywinkle :).
Hey, Mrs. Tiggywinkle! I'm assuming that you are enjoying the Fly Lady's new habit for August. A load of laundry a day is finally a FLY habit that I already have down. :)
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work. With a little help from the FLY Lady and IKEA, miracles can happen. LOL!
Ironing is usually the first thing I do when we get to a hotel room vs. the boat! I miss crisp clothes sometimes but I'm not about to add more heat to my life right now.
ReplyDeleteKatherine, I couldn't be more impressed with myself. I have managed FlyLady's monthly habit before I even knew what it was. How good is that? Not quite so good that I'm nearly a week into August and haven't checked the FlyLady site yet (I decided not to get the emails this time round - I get too easily discouraged).
ReplyDeleteJennifer, I can imagine ironing and boats do not go well together. But then, you can dry your clothes nice and crisp in the sun :) (Definition of sun: Round yellow thing in sky that emits heat and has avoided appearing over the UK for three months.)
ReplyDeleteI like laundry too. If everything about housekeeping was that easy and delightful, I would be a Born Organized.
