In the last few months I have been feeling kind of restless in our house. While it was the perfect size for Barry and I when we were first married we are outgrowing it quickly with the addition of Abram. There seems to never be enough space: to store things, for Abram's toys, to walk... However, while thinking of all the things I could do with another 1000 or so sq feet I was convicted by the thought that we don't keep our small house picked up, how would we do it with a big house?!?
That's when I found www.flylady.net It is a fabulous website that helps Barry and I set up a routine to keep our surroundings company ready. (the thing that brought me to the site was the term CHAOS or Can't Have Anyone Over Syndrome). It starts slow and goes from there. The last week on the "plan" has been fun and overwhelming. It's amazing how much mess can be made by two adults and a 5 month old. But we take it day by day. I have flynet to encourage me when I am feeling like I do the same things constantly throughout the day!
So, if you are in the neighborhood, please stop by. We will be ready for you!

I'll have to check out that site. I try to keep things picked up, but it's tough to keep up with a toddler. Especially as it gets harder to reach the floor . . .
Kudos to both of you. I can't stay organized with just the two of us!
I might take you up on the offer, it would be fun to take a walk and catch up. Thanks for sharing the website, I'm excited to try it out.
