Do you FLY with Fly Lady?
Do you participate in FLYing with the Fly Lady? If so, this question is for you:
When it comes time to do the 27 fling boogie...what do you fling? Do you fling big, clutter-y things or do you count a piece of paper as one of your things to fling?

Newbie here to answer! I remember reading one of the FlyLady emails that said you can count a piece of paper as an item when doing the 27-Fling Boogie. And, I have done just that!!

Welcome to the boards
Thanks for answering my question--I had wondered and had started counting the paper as items too

I just started getting e-mails from Fly.
It has helped me so much and the other day I did my first 27 fling boogie. I went crazy ... at first I was not sure what I would toss out but after walking around my house a few times I start tossing everything out. LOL It startedout with some paper then some books and stoped with a few pair of shoes.

bump I do flylady but have fell off the wagon since DD's have been home from school. They now have chores to help out, and this helps me stay focused.

I find Flylady to be very inspirational. Lately though, I haven't received e-mails from her. It's been close to a month, now. Anybody else not getting e-mails?

I count a piece of paper as one of the items in the 27 fling boogie, not many pieces of paper went into the bag though and it did fill up quickly. FlyLady is fun but I do have to admit I don't shine the sink daily.

I don't fly, I have visited the site on a few occassions and just can't get into it. I have issues when anyone tells me what to do, so I kinda was lost at the whole shine your sink thing.

I had never heard of this site. Thanks! I can certainly use some incentives to get my house decluttered and clean

I tried Fly Lady once but got overwhelmed just reading the daily e-mails!! I did finally switch to the digest version but I didn't stick with it very long. I am really thinking about re-joining, my house could sure use it!!!!!

Like mom2knk, I got overwhelmed with the e-mails and couldn't keep up with her requests when I got home from work. However, having this thread bumped did inspire me to do the 27 boogie fling yesterday and it felt good. Maybe I'll keep up with that piece of it.
