Morning Diane, Terry checking in this morning from beautiful New England/Massachusetts, having my coffee here in my Cape Cod kitchen. Wow, you are collecting Flybabies from all over the world. Going back and watching all of your videos. Currently reading "Sink Reflections" by the Flylady. I recommend this book for all brand new Flybaby's like myself. I ordered the 31 baby steps as well. Great work Diane, you're a great motivator and inspiration to all. You look so cute in your outfits every day. Ok, since I'm still in the fledgling stage here, I need to go and put on a face so I don't scare anyone and brush the knots out of my hair. The force is with you!
Additionally I finally got my refrigerator defrosted! I wanted to do this months ago...! One getting things done less on my list!! Thanks for always encouraging me to get off my bahookie!! Greets from Switzerland 🇨🇭!
15 min in main bath, filled garbage can with expired and partially used items. The main bath was moms', it has taken me awhile to clear out her things, making progress. Thank you for your wonderful videos :)
I appreciate this so much! You talked about quality of life, and that is exactly what I need to hear. I have been working so many hours, that is lacking. I will be 50 soon.
Love your bath! I have had enough energy to volunteer for a community event. Caregiving has eased up at last.Having my home in order helps me to help others. I appreciate the early morning for me company.
hi Diane Happy new year think you to be here to help us i really made pregress into reorganizing my home thanks to you and your precious advises i love your bathroom and your plant is really beautiful
Love how your vest, feather duster and pom poms are matchy matchy today Diane! hehe! :) Always admire your bathroom and adore those huge mirrored built in cabinets! ... I was just wondering about that sensor light under your basin - and magically you answered my question! What a novel idea!! :) On the topic of cleaning..... I have quite a few "extra rooms" to tackle and am wondering how to successfully fit them into zones?? At the moment they are add-ons to all the weekly zones and take up additional time in the day.... I don't really mind as I don't spend a heap of time in there... but curious to know how FlyLady suggests having to add another 4 rooms (2x study/music room/2 guests rooms) ...... seriously regret extending our house now! LOL! Oh! And do you count your gardening as a "zone", routine, or is it part of your "me" time?? ....this is another part of the house I find difficult to keep on top of... Thanks Diane..... Hope your DD's wrist is coming along... Helen :)
Hi 'Carmencita! Here's the Flylady list of zones www.flylady.net/d/getting-started/flying-lessons/zones/ If you're kids need help cleaning, then zone 3 would fit. My kids are old enough to clean themselves, so they do their own bedrooms once a week (plus when we are in zone 4 for a deep clean).
I've discovered the reason I'm hesitant to declutter in my kitchen and pantry/laundry room. Cleaning would be a breeze, you know exactly what you have to do. But since I've just moved, things haven't been put in a very disfunctional spot and have just cluttered up, so for me, maybe because of my perfectionism, I need to put a lot of thought and trial and error to find how I'd like to reorganize things. With that said I'm as sahm to a 1 and 3 year old. They are literally into everything. And I'm a very distractible person, so it's like I have to wait for the right moment when I won't be disturbed to work on my kitchen. Thoughts? Mind tricks? It just seems so silly but I can't get off my bahookie to tackle it, hesitating way too much.
+saphire82 Are you using a timer? You can get a lot done, even in 2 minutes. Remember that you can always reorganize again/improve the system later - it doesn't have to be perfect. Just start the job and see where it leads 💖
Diane in Denmark definitely wanted to use the timer to motivate me but even I can be a perfectionist about that. Well 2 min seems doable even with two toddlers running around, I'll give it a try.
Thanks. Feedback. Yesterday and today the volume has been low even with my volume turned up full. Not sure what changed. New camera? Maybe a microphone you could use or something? Love to catch every word.
+Sue M Hi Sue! I don't notice a problem at my end. Just a thought...did you also turn up the volume control on the UA-cam video screen (bottom left, part of the actual video). The default is set halfway and I've notice it resets sometimes when there's been an upgrade.
Diane in Denmark Hi. I listen on ipad. The ads before blare but your voice volume is soft. Like you are super far from the mic. And yes, my volume is turned up full. Hmm..
Did you listen to the start of the Bahookie series? Here we were doing one zone per day, Monday to Friday 😉 This was a special video series to get on track at the beginning of the year. Hope that helps!
@@DianeinDenmark Yes I am sorry I was confused between these bahookie series 1st and 2nd week because it is arranged randomly in the list but after a few videos i understood that you split the camp to two weeks 👍👍👍🌹🌹🌹🧡🧡🧡
ArtJourneyUK Haha, that’s funny! Very sharp eyes. Good thing we don’t have to be perfectionist when cleaning. I’m sure she’ll notice it soon enough and get to it in due time. 😊

Well done, Lisa!

Very happy to have a chat anytime! I love your enthusiasm! Xx
That is a stunning bathroom. Great videos x
So nice to hear your voice while I’m wiping down my kitchen cabinets. You are great company 😊 Hope you are having a good day.
+Greta Brown Thanks, Greta - your cabinets look very sparkly! 🌟😎

That is great news, Jeanne! 😍
Thanks for your cheering with your pom poms:) that makes me laugh and the name bahookie camp:) You help me get things done!
Looks like a top of the hour day for me. My trusty timer
+Sherry Mazza Hugs to you, Sherry! The TOTH will come to your rescue 🤗
hi Diane
Happy new year

i really made pregress into reorganizing my home thanks to you and your precious advises

Love to see you in the morning. I am so slow today. I have dry eyes and today they hurt terrible. After this I will close them for awhile.
Been doing the bahookie camp missions with you! Kind of fun to change it up this week:)
Love how your vest, feather duster and pom poms are matchy matchy today Diane! hehe! :)

You are welcome! ❤
Hi Diane. I have a question. When do you clean the other bedrooms? Your kids bedrooms? Kisses from Spain
Hi 'Carmencita! Here's the Flylady list of zones www.flylady.net/d/getting-started/flying-lessons/zones/ If you're kids need help cleaning, then zone 3 would fit. My kids are old enough to clean themselves, so they do their own bedrooms once a week (plus when we are in zone 4 for a deep clean).
What was the siren?
What was your bathroom like before you had it renovated?
Very cold, dark and dreary! 😃
Nice bathroom Diane.

Did you mean day 3 week 3 because week 2 is the kitchen 😉😉

Don’t you find that when you have your nice top on, that you are perspiring?
Diane! The bottom of the left hand mirror has toothpaste all down it! I was surprised you missed it, especially when you were wiping the skirting!
ArtJourneyUK Haha, that’s funny! Very sharp eyes. Good thing we don’t have to be perfectionist when cleaning. I’m sure she’ll notice it soon enough and get to it in due time. 😊
+ArtJourneyUK Thank you, Bathroom Police Patrol! 😁 I saw it as soon as I finished filming...all shiny now, so you can rekax 😁🌟
+ArtJourneyUK Um, hold on a minute...why are you watching me so closely...you're supposed to be working along with me! LOL! 💪💪💪
