    If this has been asked before I apologize.

    I am new and was curious if anyone here was a practicing fly baby.

    I saw some things on here about organization and decluttering, is there a club?

    Thanks

    Cool

    I'm a flybaby (I don't even have a shiny sink, much less routines in place) but I do know what you are talking about.


    I really need to get myself together don't I?

    I absolutely love this site.
    I have friends who don't like it and of course a great friend who introduced me to the site.
    I read two books by Pam and Peggy , AKA "the slob sisters".
    I found it very inspiring but I too am a procrastinator.
    I do have a shiny sink and I manage to stay up on top of mount washmore.
    I would love to hear other's opinions on implementing this system or any other that may work.

    Thanks

    I've been a flybaby for 2 years now.
    I keep a control journal with budget, bills, gift lists, addresses, and phone numbers. I don't have written routines but I do have my morning chores that I do without fail and the house stays pretty much organized.

    I'm a flybaby. Found her website several months ago when I started decluttering my home.

    When you get started decluttering and organizing, it's so highly addictive that you almost can't stop. EVERYTHING you see needs to be cleaned, put somewhere, or thrown out. Does anyone else feel this way?

    I've been a Flybaby for about 2-1/2 years. I don't follow the system as religiously as some, but when I do my home looks great. I have my "on the wagon" and "off the wagon" periods, but overall my place looks a lot better just from the decluttering.

    DH recommends the system to just about everyone. He decluttered over 1 ton of old computer equipment.

    I'm a flybaby and absolutely love it. I don't follow it religiously but enough to keep most things neat and tidy and easy to get back on track if you slide off. My house has never been cleaner with so little effort.

    I just checked it out last friday and I started trying some of the suggestions and I must say just in the last few days ..I have noticed a big difference and I don't feel like things are piling up on me. I may have to really sit down and write out a routine and see if I can't turn them into habits.
