I have written out my morning, afternoon and bedtime routines on one and my weekly home blessing and the weekly task list on another. I tear out and throw away (recycle) my old diary pages once I finish a week, so that my routine sheet is always next to this weeks diary.stagasaurushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13148041783592592017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-18541662407712457882012-03-15T09:29:38.144-04:002012-03-15T09:29:38.144-04:00I would love to see the household pages that you h...I would love to see the household pages that you have created.<br /><br />quinton42503@gmail.comJoey Quintonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13859818117873632285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-66231299155280299882012-03-15T07:04:03.219-04:002012-03-15T07:04:03.219-04:00I saw how you set this up in the video further dow...I saw how you set this up in the video further down the blog, very, very inspiring. I'm going to be pretty much copying it! <br />I'm not totally on the ball with the smaller elements of the flylady system, ie. shiny sinks and found I've gotten 'bogged down' in those first steps which stopped me progressing on the bigger picture elements ie. doing zones, by taking the flylady industrious housewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17162195747272357914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-36165357708411392892012-03-14T20:06:21.388-04:002012-03-14T20:06:21.388-04:00I am not familiar with flylady but I do have a sub...I am not familiar with flylady but I do have a sub section "Home and Garden" under my Projects tab. General cleaning gets done and I do not need to make notes for that. I wrote down the dimensions of areas in our apartment, like kitchen countertops, patio door height and length, etc. These are areas I am planning to improve one day and it is great to have the information handy.

Some times I'll add 'clean bathroom' etc. to my to-do lists if I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed, but don't have a separate home filo. <br /><br />I will also box time off & find cleaning is a great antidote to some thing like studying/brain stuff.Anitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07657083184744111032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-33296334189097080032012-03-14T10:53:07.635-04:002012-03-14T10:53:07.635-04:00Wow, Judith, that's inspiring!

I have just picked up my Filofax again, so I may use your system as a guideline! <br /><br />I did a post on plannerisms about Filofax and the Flylady system: http://www.plannerisms.com/2011/09/philofaxy-all-stars-guest-post-femke.html (though I fell off the bandwagon right after that post!).

After months of not having access to the internet I came on here today with the sole purpose of finding info about a home/family organizer, which I intend to use my A5 Vintage Rose Finchley for. Me and DH are finally getting cracking with moving in together for the first time :D SO EXCITED! And once again Philofaxy is amazingly on par with my train of thought!
