    I agree with a lot of people here. I finally understood the FlyLady system because of you and now my house is in order. I don't have any children and I work from home, but I'm just a natural slob that could never figure out how to keep my house tidy (without having to do it for hours every now and then). So I'm grateful for your videos. I know you started this channel for your own accountability, but it has been a tremendous help for a lot of other people. And besides all of the cleaning info, I think you're really nice to listen to. You have a nice voice and a pleasant personality. And after seeing your video on the fitbit challenge, I think you and your friends are totally badass, running all of those km's while having recently given birth, pumping and breastfeeding. You seriously rock! ;-)

    You explain FlyLady cleaning better than ANYONE.....even better than the FlyLady. I could never get through all the lists and thought I was supposed to do it all until I watched your channel. I was so happy to see a new video come up today. Keep up the good work! And ps....I 💜 your planning sheet printable!

      I agree 100%!! I never thought I could empty dish washer, make bed, and fold 1 load. And I've done it for about a whole week!!
      I loved your video with your sister doing the fly lady! I too work 45 hr weeks, so that leaves little time. But doing just the am routine makes me feel my home is more put together!

    I am 43 with a 12, 11 and 4 year old. I love listening to you and you have motivated me so much. I just wish I had you to listen to when I was 30 and 32 having my first 2 babies. I was depressed, overwhelmed and so hard on myself. I would have been so much better off if I could have watched your videos back then. You are helping so many people ❤️

    One really good tip I picked up from someone is that when you enter a room, make a note of what doesn’t belong there and make it a point to take it out with you when you leave the room

    I love that you keep your bed simple and no throw pillows. I don't have throw pillows either, I just never understood why that's a thing. I know some people want their bed to look pretty and all made up but it just seems like extra work to me. And I love that you go for a walk first thing, great idea!

    First of all , I LOVE that you call your oatmeal PORRIDGE!!! I wanted to thank you sweet girl for being so honest and real and motivating. We are all in different stages in life and it astonishes me that a young mom in Canada can have such an impact on an empty nester in Oregon. My husband is recovering from a bone marrow transplant and as difficult as these last 8 months have been, I have found such peace in these routines. I have looked at the dishes in my sink many nights not wanting to do them and then thought of your kind voice and set a 5 minute timer and most times got the dishes in the dishwasher and shined the sink in those 5 min. I love waking up to a clean kitchen. So thanks Steph, you influence maybe more than you truly realize.

    Hello from Australia. Thanks for your awesome videos they all motivate me to get my act together. I have an 8 month old baby and a 6 year old to juggle in the morning and it is hard to get myself completely ready for the day too. I love that you actually live the "progress not perfection" motto and show in your videos that you're not always perfect. It's so refreshing and makes me feel better about my own "progress"!

    Glad to see some else missed you! I really did too. Your videos are so motivating for me. My baby boy is now 24 and teaching English to middle schoolers and 2 smallish 9th and 10th grade classes! However, I have 3 dogs and 2 cats and I walk those dogs everyday I possibly can. It's been blazing hot and humid here in Indiana so I go early. I return a sweaty mess, shower and begin my morning routine which looks very much like yours . Thanks for all the inspiration and motivation!!! Hope-full in Hope, Indiana, Melissa V

    Most relatable moment drinking from the MLP cup! #momlife I think we have that same cup! My big will be 10 in 6weeks and she is now a "preteen, Mom!" and is so embarrassed she went through an MLP stage. Meanwhile, little sister just turned 3 in June and haunts her by using the cups. I loved this video you make it look so easy and I love it most because you're not showing perfection just progress like you say. Some of the channels I have watched trying to find something that clicked have the neatest houses ever like are there even people who live there? You do such an amazing job of sharing! Thank you!

  • @momof2momof2
    @momof2momof2 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I agree with you about everything. . Getting up early, showered and dressed for the day is soooooooo important. When my children were in school, I had myself and everything ready early for the day. It makes the rest of the day go so much more smoothly. After I got them up, breakfasted, dressed and to school, I was free to get my errands done, and /or have coffee or breakfast with a friend out. And was home by 10 or 11. The rest of the day was housework, getting dinner started, and laundry. Easy peasy. tfs 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗 You are gorgeous and have it together !

  • @gibsongirl9046
    @gibsongirl9046 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    You've mentioned how shoes are not worn inside the house in Canada and that's why you have a pair of indoor shoes. I wish it was the same custom in the U.S. I don't wear my outdoor shoes in the house anymore because of Covid 19 but I just wiped off the bottom of a pair of slippers that I forget and sometimes run outside to do something. Oh. My. Gosh. It was disgusting. I used a Clorox wipe and was floored. I wish I had a science background because I would test what the heck is on the bottom f shoes besides just "dirt". I can only imagine....Very glad you shared Canadian custom with us.

    It’s helpful to see how your routine adapts with the seasons, with the addition of the baby, etc. The basic function of having a morning routine is the same, but you change the specifics for what will serve you, your house, and your family. Also, I love “Stephanie’s Ponytail!” I have a whole author box of Robert Munsch in my classroom! “Wait and See” and “Aaron’s Hair” are more favorites. So fun!!! 😃

    I have all my printables and I am ready to start. You have made this system so easy to understand and I’m excited to start. I heard about flykady when my kids were young but I never quite got it. You have made it so easy to understand and the videos help me see how possible it is. I love your channel and just want to say Thankyou for the inspiration.

Next drawer today, I didn’t count them like you did, but I don’t think about it, I just pick one, empty it and after that, I’m done with 'extras'. I wave my cap for you, having 3 sweet children and even a garden... but I saw you’ve a very motivated little watering helper! Keep cool and healthy, love, Monika from Germany in a heat wave🌊🌞

Thank you, take care x

    I have a hard time peeling myself out of bed that early. I usually wait until my kids are up and even then I have to have coffee before I make them breakfast. It makes me get off to a late start every day. But I’d love to get the motivation to exercise before my kids get up. I laid out work out clothes last night but I didn’t listen this am. Try again tomorrow I guess!

Brushed my teeth but nothing else. Finished up 3 meetings and THEN started my actual routine of shower, changing, breakkie. By then my hubby was also up so I could also make the bed . Wasn’t in the usual order but knowing what needed to get down, but it easy to stay on top of things

I'm making single servings, but I'm guessing there would be a way to make multiple serving in a bowl. Try it one time to see how you like it. 🙂
