Kelly's Missions: Where Will You End Up Today?
You never know where you will end up, or what you will find, when you tackle one of Kelly's Missions! Perhaps you will be hunting dust bunnies in places you never knew dust bunnies lived, or diving for treasures between your sofa cushions, or maybe flinging "unmentionables" from under beds, closets, and dressers. You just never know! Each day during the week, Kelly will add a new mission for whatever zone we are working in. Have fun! Are you ready to FLY with Kelly?
FLY Spot Alert for the Week!
"FLY Spots" are one of those hidden places where clutter seems to accumulate without us even realizing it! Spend 15 minutes in a FLY Spot, and you will be amazed at how much clutter you find!
This week's FLY Spot:
This week we're in Zone 5: The Living Room. Take a few moments to check your walls. Are they bare? Have a friend help you hang some pictures,
if you aren't confident with decorating. Many of us are hesitant about
driving nails in our walls because we are so afraid to make a
mistake. Don't let your perfectionism stop you from making your house a
home! Do you have pictures and paintings on the walls, but you no longer
love them? Maybe it's time to replace them with something new that will
make you smile! If you love your wall decor, give it some extra TLC this
week.... dusting, a little rearranging, or added decoration for the oomph
factor. Don't obsess! Loosen up and experiment a little with your decor!
You can't organize clutter; you can only get rid of it! - FlyLady

Friday's Mission!
Dear Friends,
Today, let's have a quick vacuuming session. This means to vacuum the
room in the center getting as close to baseboards and furniture as
you can (without actually moving the furniture out of the way). This
is not a detailed vacuum, just a quick one. Don't obsess, this will
take less than 10 minutes. Have fun and don't get sidetracked!

Thursday's Mission!
Dear Friends,
It is time for a 27 Fling!! Take 5 minutes to fling your way through
the Living Room! Nothing too hard here folks, just that old 27 Fling
Boogie! Grab that trash bag and release yourself from things that
are causing clutter! Toss those magazines and newspapers! Toss that
Junk Mail!!
Have fun and don't obsess!
Love,
Kelly
Wednesday's Mission!
Dear Friends,
It is Anti-Procrastination Day and today we are going after the
neglected areas of our living room/family room. Grab a feather
duster or dust rag and go after the tops of door jambs, tops of
pictures, moulding, windows, corners of the ceiling and the tops of
your curtains.
OH my, it is amazing at what gathers higher up! I happen to be rather
short, so I often forget to look UP! LOL! Now do not get obsessed
and start tearing the room apart. Just look up and dust! If you have
something with a long handle, it makes this easier. A tip for those of
you with high (cathedral) ceilings: get a long piece of small
diameter PVC pipe. You drop the handle of your feather duster in it, secure it
with a strip of duct tape and start dusting away! You can get PVC pipe in home
improvement stores.
Have Fun!
Love,
Kelly
Tuesday's Mission!
Dear Friends,
For today you are to take 5 minutes and dust the decorative items in
your living room. The picture frames, lamps and knick knacks; this is
a detailed dusting. Turn on the music and move quickly, you will be
amazed at how fast you can to this!!!
Don't over think the mission, just do the mission! Have fun!
Love,
Kelly
Monday's Mission!
Dear Friends,
This week, we have a full week in Zone 5: the Living Room. Today, I
want you to spend 15 minutes getting rid of anything that does not
belong in your living room. Things that have gotten thrown in a
corner, on a chair, or even the floor. The things that you almost
don't even see because they have just become part of the room, get it
out! If it does not belong there then out it goes!
This does not mean that you have to spend three hours in your living
room, do what you can do for 15 minutes and then stop!
Love,
Kelly
