Your house is looking so nice Sophia. I love seeing you go through the processes of coming home from work, doing your zone work and fixing dinner for your family. It is so authentic and inspiring. Suggestion on your junk/pen drawer... a better organizer such as a cutlery tray or something with more compartments so that everything in the drawer has home... this way you can see when something is out of place and the drawer isn't so quick to fall out of shape again.
I love these video so inspiring and keeping me going! My kitchen looks Fantastic! Have you tried Murphys Oil soap for the cabinets and floor , I love the mind smell and it's all I use for all the wood and cabinets in the house.
Sophia I love your videos! You are very motivational and you MAKE ME LAUGH! Your family is precious! And I really enjoy the bonus dinner footage too. Thanks for taking the time post this, I know it a lot of work. Keep it up my friend! I am a part of the pen club too!
Thank you so much for making these videos. I have really bad anxiety and panic disorder and I get overwhelmed easily. My house has stayed cluttered and messy for years and I've struggled. You have helped me get my kitchen clean and functional again. I have tried flylady several times and never did well until now.
I truly can't thank you enough for sharing this process start to finish. I am on chapter 5 of the FlyLady's book, and am doing a bit of kitchen cleaning as I go just because I have the time, but your videos are a GREAT reminder of all the FlyLady's key points. I am a "recovered hoarder" but my daughter also inherited the family trait☹️. I am now trying to inspire her and so far so good. Thank you for passing it forward!!!
Thanks for the reminder to declutter before zone cleaning. There are two rooms which contain unfinished projects, sentimental items, items for sale, postponed decision making, photos. Thanks for the suggestion to tackle them closest to the door 15 minutes daily. I am grateful to you and FlyLady for sharing your experiences in this process.
I just wanted to tell you I am loving this series of videos. I thought my sink was clean then I cleaned it and shined it and now I feel like it was never clean before. My sink looks wonderful. I also love you adding the evening meal at the end it has given me new ideas for our meals. Thanks so much for all the time and work put into these.
I love these videos - organizing, cleaning, cooking, family time, and funny dogs. What more could we ask for? You make it look so easy! I may be able to "beat" your Pen Problem. I have a stash of old pens that have sentimental value... ones I used for exams during certain college years, ones I was using during different writing periods, ones given to me by friends... my husband is still baffled. They are very pretty, and in a drawer of momentos - so not mingling in the general pen population to confuse anyone. They just bring back nice memories for me.
I'm with you on this, Sophia! Your videos are great, and it's very encouraging having someone else following the same system as I am. The daily lists are so motivating, and I always think I manage to do just a LITTLE extra every day.
Good morning ☕️❤️🙌🏽. I have found my click also with this system. I have got the kids involved in keeping their rooms tidy & taking the time to do a 15 min declutter. I have them go through their clothes,backpack,drawers etc and just take out what doesn't need to take up space in their room. Now if I can get my hubs to declutter his stuff in the closet .... items like games , computer parts , electronic items.
I have to agree with you assessment of Mrs. Meyers. I've use the countertop cleaner and I think it has the strangest scent. I just gave that big bottle to my niece to use as she like lots of people love it. I now just use my daily granite cleaner which I have to say has a weird scent too, but better than the MM. This is working out so well for you and I'm happy with a sad face. I will MISS those 30-40 min. videos of you re-doing your kitchen, bedroom, and of your cleaning of said rooms. :( Happy for you and sad for me. ;) It would not be a garbage cabinet video w/o le chiffre. He does keep us entertained. haha Love that pup!
Still purging - painful. UGH! I think this may put me off shopping forever. So looking forward to when this is behind me! Keep your encouraging videos coming (it's like the carrot that's dangled in front of the donkey) lol. Thanks.
Sophia, yes, I love when you show us what's for dinner. Love that the Flylady is working for you. I just got the book in the mail. Need to read and then start the baby steps. I am saving all your videos, so I can start with your first video.
It's official, I'm addicted to Fabuloosa for toilet swishing. The lavender smell is heavenly. It looks pretty too in my glass jars that hold my toilet brushes. Gone are the plastic germs plastic holders. I love seeing dinner. I like anything you do for that matter. I have a suggestion about your garbage. Consider getting a new mechanism and buy the kit that connects it to your cabinet door. We did that and with one pull it opens. No damage to the cupboard and beagle proof ( I have one too) garbage gives her pancreatitis not that she cares.
Becoming my favorite series! Thank you so much Sophia. This is so appreciated and inspiring. Bought the book taking notes from you getting ready to begin😀
Keep up the great work Sophia!!! The house is looking amazing!!! Why is it that as soon as you have washed a floor someone wants to walk on it?!?! Cant wait for the next video!!!
I love your way of cleaning and decluttering along the way! I think that is exactly what I needed to see today because the thought of decluttering is messing with my mind. It is mostly in my cabinets. You always inspire me to try and do better no matter what. You are my favorite channel to watch! Hope you had a great Mother's Day😌👨👩👦👦🌞💐----Tressa Daigle
Sophia,love these videos,well I love all your videos! But,I saw a tip on Pinterest and I did it and love it.Under the sink cabinet.Go to Home Depot and buy the sticky vinyl floor tiles and put them on the base.Looks great and so nice to clean and keep clean. Most of the bases can be so easily damaged by water,it protects it.
Dl Weaver when we redid our bathroom I had the hubby use a left over piece of the vinyl flooring to cover under the sink. Now when you open the doors it matches the floor. And it is so much easier to clean than the beat up old wood bottom. Love the idea of the sticky tile for under the kitchen sink cabinets. Adding to my "honey do" list! 😊
Well done Sophia. Love to see what you make for Dinner. As you said all part of the DITL. This has been an excellent series Sophia. I am pleased for you that you have found something that is good for you and your Family. Best wishes.
LOL. I still remember my Mom telling us "you have to decide where you're going to be" when she would mop the kitchen floor. You had to be either in your room or the den. No passing through the kitchen when the floor was wet.
I had to stop the video and comment. When you yelled:"Surprise! More pens!" I cracked up. We are the exact same way!! We have pens simply everywhere. All I can say is I love pens ,too. All six people in my household love to write. For some it's a hobby, for others it's a livelihood. What would you do if a thought or idea came to mind and there was no pen nearby?!! Tragic!
I love it when you show me what you are making for dinner cause it's definitely different and everyone does it everyone meaning everyone cooks and has dinner. I think that is so neat cause when my kids get home after school we have a dinner snack meaning like a pizza or something quick like chicken nuggets kraft dinner at around 4pm then at around 8pm we have our big hearty healthy dinner then kids are in the shower or bath and by 9:30 they are in bed sleeping. In Rainy River First Nation Canada.
Salut Sophia, tes sacs poubelles sous ton evier pourquoi ne pas carrément les sortir du carton d'emballage et y avoir accès plus vite encore! Je suis tombée par hasard sur tes vidéos que j'adore, très inspiring ! Tu vas droit au but ! Je suis une flylady addict par fainéantise pour avoir à en faire le moins possible. D'accord avec toi :le maitre mot est decluttering ! Le moins d'objet le moins de menage" rangeage". Je pense que mes tiroirs de cuisine sont plus grands que les tiens, du coup je mets tous mes couteaux fourchettes cuillères dans le même tiroir. Simplifier par fainéantise toujours ! un tiroir à torchons un tiroir pour tous les couvercles plastiques et DEUX tiroirs plein de choses qui serviront un jour !!! Ta vidéo de rangement de tiroir m'a donné envie d alléger ces 2 là ! Merci Sophia !
Thank you for another great video 👍🏻 totally true about going back thru things! Have definitely learned to make a second (maybe 3rd, 4th....) pass & gotten rid of even more clutter. 👏🏻👍🏻🙏🏻❤️
I love your recipes keep them coming please. You have inspired me sooo much I haven't follow the fly lady yet but I have started implementing a lot of this great ideas. Thank you
Sophia you asked about a floor polish to bring back shine to hardwoods. I use the quick shine in the green bottle. The blue you have works good just to clean. Great video
I love watching you. I am going to do this for sure. I have ordered the book, gotten the app and I already use a happy planner. I am thinking I may get another planner just for fly lady. I have started rewatching your videos from the the beginning. I learn something new every time. I am excited to get started but I want to read and learn as much as I can first.
Still on track! 👏 Sophia, you did a recent video on natural cleaners in your bathroom. Why don't you just use vinegar, baking soda, etc in the kitchen as well? (I think you just have to watch out with vinegar on granite?!)
You've tried so many times to make the magazine holder work in the kitchen ... Maybe not the best spot so what about in the entryway (the one in the kitchen) ? Things to take on the go or dog stuffs ? Maybe too dangerous as a drop zone ?
I agree 100 % that will be easy and clear with planner so I will buy one and start fly lady Thanks 4 these helpful ideas and thank u for sharing those breliant videos 🧡🧡🍁🍁🌾🌾🍁🍁🧡🧡
I love this series. I'm not in love with the wall hanging unit. It just looks junky. But where is all the stuff going to go? what ever works for you. Always enjoy the making dinner part.
The smell of "clean" is the smell of bleach (childhood memories...) I really miss it sometimes as I rarely use it in my appartment but I know exactly what you mean!!!
Dear Sophia Love your series and a propos Willy's allergy I've heard tha millet is helpful. You eat it 10-12 days and should help. Unfortunately I can't find that video. It was polish and there was a doctor saying about millet. Maybe You find sth in the net. Wishing all your family a lot of health☺
Hi Sophia, can you give us an update on your control journal? You had tabs for your contacts and emergencies in the binder but your planner has pages for that info. Did you utilize the planner instead and freed up space in your binder? Love your videos and I too love office supplies. My bday is September 16. :)
did it once and it did work but I stopped why I don't know but walked away with a lot of habits that I still do and I am doing it again house is not that bad I already clean on Mondays hoping it will cut the time down
Is it a "male" thing. My Husband and Son do this. I came from a Family of 6 Girls and one Boy and we never did that but my Brother did and we would cover for him so he would not get into trouble for leaving empty wrappers etc in the Pantry and 'Fridge!!

LOVE this series. Also love the included bonus of dinner recipe ideas!
I like seeing your dinners. Happy this system is working for you!
Thank you so much for making these videos. I have really bad anxiety and panic disorder and I get overwhelmed easily. My house has stayed cluttered and messy for years and I've struggled. You have helped me get my kitchen clean and functional again. I have tried flylady several times and never did well until now.
Starting the baby steps. Your inspirational. Also dinner ideas are appreciated.
I am so loving this series Sophia! You can visibly see how relaxed you are, no stress!! Thank you for sharing your day with us! :)

You can really notice the difference in your canisters. They are so shiny and look brand new as well as beautiful.
I just wanted to tell you I am loving this series of videos. I thought my sink was clean then I cleaned it and shined it and now I feel like it was never clean before. My sink looks wonderful. I also love you adding the evening meal at the end it has given me new ideas for our meals. Thanks so much for all the time and work put into these.
Your puppy was just being cute in front of the camera, just the same Willie does once in a while.
I have 2 boys also. I feel your pain. Edward's strategy to get in the kitchen brought back memories. 😂
I love these videos - organizing, cleaning, cooking, family time, and funny dogs. What more could we ask for? You make it look so easy! I may be able to "beat" your Pen Problem.

Still with you Sophia!love you & love the series.💖
Thank you for taking the time to film this series! You have motivated me to give the fly lady system a go!!
I love seeing what you cook for dinner! It's neat to see what other people fox haha.
Thumbs up! As always!👍🏾
Yes, I like to see the dinner fixins' too.
Charging the kids' phones in the kitchen at night: genius!!
Sophia, yes, I love when you show us what's for dinner. Love that the Flylady is working for you. I just got the book in the mail. Need to read and then start the baby steps. I am saving all your videos, so I can start with your first video.
I'm still there with you!! Thanks for this series!!
Hi, Sophia. I'm flying along with you!
Love seeing the dinner at the end!
I am loving this series of yours! It's very inspiring. I admire your diligence in recording every single day!
I like it when you show what you have for dinner definitely!
It's official, I'm addicted to Fabuloosa for toilet swishing. The lavender smell is heavenly. It looks pretty too in my glass jars that hold my toilet brushes.

Keep up the great work Sophia!!! The house is looking amazing!!! Why is it that as soon as you have washed a floor someone wants to walk on it?!?! Cant wait for the next video!!!
I love pens too. Never too many! I always share them though.
Thank you Sophia for another inspiring and motivating video!! Blessings to you and your precious family:-)

I like pens too, Sophia!😊
Your doing a great job, and I love seeing what you are having for dinner.
I like the Mrs. Meyers lilac or peony scent . Stronger smell . I have only seen it at target. Great job. 🌺
Very inspirational! Your house is looking amazing.
Love these daily videos. Thanks for all your hard work!
Sophia got her groove back!
Jamie Stanley wrd
my favorite videos to watch! you are doing a great job! Dinner looks yummy. Take care.
Hi, Sophia. Yes, please keep your recipes coming. I am a very plain cook and really enjoy some variety, which I am learning from you. Thank you!
Another great video! I love that you share what your cooking, your showing me good ideas for what to cook for tea. x
Sophia,love these videos,well I love all your videos!
But,I saw a tip on Pinterest and I did it and love it.Under the sink cabinet.Go to Home Depot and buy the sticky vinyl floor tiles and put them on the base.Looks great and so nice to clean and keep clean.
Most of the bases can be so easily damaged by water,it protects it.
Dl Weaver great idea! My under sink looks like Sophia's and I kept thinking what can I do to protect wood plus it's such a eye sore for me! 👌🏽

oh yeah, that would be a tragedy right there, I agree!
J'ai fait exactement la même chose ce matin ;-)
Bravo!
You have inspired me so much I have been doing so much decluttering lately
I love it when you show me what you are making for dinner cause it's definitely different and everyone does it everyone meaning everyone cooks and has dinner.

If you keep the pottery barn wall unit have strictly cookery and home decor magazines
Sophia you asked about a floor polish to bring back shine to hardwoods. I use the quick shine in the green bottle. The blue you have works good just to clean. Great video
That's exactly how I use it. I can find both at Meijer a store in Mi but not sure about NJ. I think she will love the results
sewbeeit3 What kind of mop does one need to use with Quick Shine products? TIA
i love you dinner idea
You inspired me so
Much 😩😩🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Anjessb B yes me too
doing great!
I love watching you. I am going to do this for sure. I have ordered the book, gotten the app and I already use a happy planner. I am thinking I may get another planner just for fly lady. I have started rewatching your videos from the the beginning. I learn something new every time. I am excited to get started but I want to read and learn as much as I can first.
you are already successful!
I kept saying, " move the stickies over with the other office supplies" and eventually you did 😂 geesh I have issues 🤣🤣
LOL
Still on track! 👏 Sophia, you did a recent video on natural cleaners in your bathroom. Why don't you just use vinegar, baking soda, etc in the kitchen as well? (I think you just have to watch out with vinegar on granite?!)
Vinegar and granite don't mix! Will dull surface. thanks for mentioning this.
You've tried so many times to make the magazine holder work in the kitchen ...
Maybe not the best spot so what about in the entryway (the one in the kitchen) ? Things to take on the go or dog stuffs ?
Maybe too dangerous as a drop zone ?
send love from egypt
I agree 100 % that will be easy and clear with planner so I will buy one and start fly lady
Thanks 4 these helpful ideas and thank u for sharing those breliant videos 🧡🧡🍁🍁🌾🌾🍁🍁🧡🧡
Sorry I mean brilliant
Thank you so much for these inspiring videos!
I love this series. I'm not in love with the wall hanging unit. It just looks junky. But where is all the stuff going to go? what ever works for you.
Always enjoy the making dinner part.
I like it. If the style is wrong she could DIY paint it. I guess we will see what happens.
+1Sunrose Yeah, I thought of that too after I posted.
The smell of "clean" is the smell of bleach (childhood memories...) I really miss it sometimes as I rarely use it in my appartment but I know exactly what you mean!!!
what nail polish are you wearing? I love it!
Dear Sophia Love your series and a propos Willy's allergy I've heard tha millet is helpful. You eat it 10-12 days and should help. Unfortunately I can't find that video. It was polish and there was a doctor saying about millet. Maybe You find sth in the net. Wishing all your family a lot of health☺
Yes, I do like watching the dinner prep. It helps give me ideas for my dinner. Great Job!
Great video.
I love your lunch bag, where is it from? Wondering if I could get it in the UK.
Hi Sophia, can you give us an update on your control journal? You had tabs for your contacts and emergencies in the binder but your planner has pages for that info. Did you utilize the planner instead and freed up space in your binder? Love your videos and I too love office supplies. My bday is September 16. :)
Love your videos! I too, am a pen-o-holic 👍🏼
So Did Willie like the sauce? 😀
did it once and it did work but I stopped why I don't know but walked away with a lot of habits that I still do and I am doing it again house is not that bad I already clean on Mondays hoping it will cut the time down
I keep getting just a glimpse, but looks like your lamp shade goes very nicely with the eagle lamp, Sophia!
that;s wallpaper from mom's laundry room in Normandy, I brought back a few panels as memorabilia....vintage 1960s
How neat!
I got an idea from you tube using a tenson rod under sink to hold you spray bottles extra dry cloths and ect to give you more room
I have the same problem with kids putting empty stuff back in the fridge, pantry, etc. It makes no sense.
Is it a "male" thing. My Husband and Son do this. I came from a Family of 6 Girls and one Boy and we never did that but my Brother did and we would cover for him so he would not get into trouble for leaving empty wrappers etc in the Pantry and 'Fridge!!
Sophia, did you ever find your xmas plaid table runners? I totally wanted to see them.
