I love your videos! Being organized gives me anxiety but your calming voice and videos have helped me tremendously! Thank you for such great content. Your voice is like cammomile tea😊
Thank you Kat, this was really interesting and helpful! You are my favorite Flylady mentor, and your voice always calms my anxiety attacks while trying to integrate the programme and routines into my home life. Have a great day!
My routine has been very important and much the same for years. We joke it's a California French routine. Similar like yours. The only differences would be I pull the top bedding back to allow the bed to air out when I get up, then I get on the treadmill for five miles, then shower, eat a light breakfast, then make the bed. Owning less stuff also helps. Am amazed at how much stuff Americans own. Come evening we sit down to eat which takes an hour. This has been a priority of ours for years. After dinner I do another five miles on the treadmill, take a quick shower, then do some reading, answer correspondence . At 9:45pm I open the bedroom window (we sleep in a cool room), go brush and floss teeth. Am in bed by 10pm. NO electronic stuff i.e. tv, cell phone, iPad in the bedroom. Also believe in a good mattress and bed linens. On a side note cleaning, doing laundry, preparing meals is something all members of the family have always done. Not just me.
I'm at the stage where I'm saying "what happened". We are a fam of 4 and I currently stay home. I am determined to do better. I've completely cleaned up my diet and now I'm ready to clean and maintain my house. Fall break for the kids is next week (perfect timimg). I'm watching your videos and making my plans.
Doing the laundry is what you do when the dryers done. Wish somebody had told me that sooner! I'm playing catch up on mountains of clean clothes in my room, next to my empty dressers. For years I've been living like that. In my decluttering process I'm thinning out unnecessary clothing as I'm folding and putting away so this process right now I call the "fold or fling".
LOL!! I feel like you were talking straight to me! I'm gonna go complete the process of cleaning up after supper! BTW, I had such a great and productive day, that I remembered that it was Wednesday in time to go to church, AND I was already dressed (nicely) to shoes, so I could go!! What a blessing you are to me!!!
So glad to see you!. This system is slowly working. Most days I can get up without the kitchen disaster waiting. Still working on my laundry routine, but hey, we will get there!
Thank you! Thank you for making these videos available to everyone. I have watched/listened to this video 4x. I need to hear it multiple times for it to sink in and become of part of “my” routines. I have fluttered for a few years, but need the reminders and new explanations, demonstrations and thoughts about “Flying.” Chaos and clutter seem to ebb and flow with my depressive/anxious episodes. I love your detailed steps....sometimes I need that level of instruction when my monkey brain (ping pong balls) takes over! You are a great coach!💐
I am starting to have flu symptoms and my kids have been sick its been exhausting trying to keep up w cleaning part time work and NOW me about to get sick. Its a-coming. But I saw this and made the effort to do the dishes. Put 1last load of laundry made my husband fold the other portion. And took a long shower... 🥵🥵🥵thanks for this! Now I'm gonna go take a mini nap to prepare for work 😴 😪 🙃 😌
Morning Kat, I've been slowly watching your videos till I get to the first one. This morning is one of those mornings I'm so great full for you. Not a very restful night, but couldn't sleep in, watching grandkids today. You voice kept telling me get your morning routine done, you can do this. Before I knew it I got up only halfway dressed myself I needed coffee, then I realized as I was drinking my coffee I had unloaded the dishwasher. I thought wow Kat's right I did it without thinking. Gave me the motivation to finish the process of my morning routine. Just need to do bathrooms. Grandkids just arrived they are 6&8. So cup of coffee then I'll do them. Load of laundry is already started. I'm 55 and even though I've been a wife and Mom for 39 years I've learned so much about routines when it comes to my cleaning from you. I've always had a routine for my sons schedule, I never once thought about cleaning routine. 3 years ago when my son got ill and can no longer go to day programs it just totally through me for a loop. Think I'm going to be getting back on track working my routines and his routine (like getting him up, changing, feeding etc) to combine well. I'm still working my way bit by bit with clearing the clutter (it's the only place with it) off my desk. Then I'll work my way shelf by shelf through my hallway cabinets, there's a lot of them. Rearrange so they aren't a huge mess nice and organized, get rid of more stuff as I go. I have a big box my sons diapers come in and I wait till it's full then I call an organization that has a thrift store that supports the disabled. They have a horse ranch that people of all ages can do riding therapy. Been around our area for years, they used to be able to go out to the special ed classes and the kids rode for free. Great organization. Have a beautiful day.
I've already turned around and said what happened over and over. Honestly, I am exhausted. Thank you for this. I am trying. I work all day everyday and feel like I accomplish nothing. I haven't given up though.
Ping pong balls going off in my head...yes! That is an excellent description! It gives me hope to see another ping pong 🏓 player succeeds in this system. Right now I’m learning am, after dinner, and pm routines.
It's funny how we need to hear these instructions, I certainly do! I'm curious to know what's your professional or academic background This video is great, and thanks for reminding us that the laundry is not just throwing clothes in the machine... I just realised my husband does more of the laundry than me! (If we count the folding and sorting)
I’ve been using laundry mesh bags for socks and undergarments, wish I’d done this when i had kids at home. No lost socks, they wash in the bag, and dry in the bag. I have all sizes, I travel with them, dirty clothes are put in a mesh bag, when i get home it’s fast to unpack, the mesh bag, like clothes together so no sorting required, you are unpacked quickly. I travel so much that I keep my luggage packed with toiletries, and once I unpack i restock as needed.
Hello, again! Mrs. Kat., you were one of the first people on my mind, this am so I tuned-in to your channel. 😊 I’ve found myself at times wondering “how to just-BE” and, I find that I’ve finally come to a place where I can learn these life lessons, I’ve so longed for. Because of you! I heard you say you mentor; my question is: how do I reach you to learn more about that? Thank you, in advance! -Stacey Karen 💕
A Better Life With Flylady Kat Oh, that’s alright. I’m benefiting from your videos right now.💖But, when you do have an opening, I hope you’ll think of me. Thank you, for the prompt response! I hope you enjoy the rest of your week. 💓
Hi Kat, I'm new to your channel. I heard you mention something about levels but couldn't find a video on 'levels'. Could you tell me where to find this video or explain it in more detail? Thanks!
I help others that are overwhelmed with a cluttered home. I would love to have them watch you directly but, you have such a soft voice that it is just to low for them to hear. Could you turn up the volume so they could hear you.... Thanks.
Very nice n simple truly helpful video kat....love you ❤️❤️❤️❤️ur 1week old flybaby😃😃😆n m can really feel dat calmness n happiness already....thanq so much once again...lots of love....RUHI😇
....my cleaning habits were bad....was hard to just do It? When u know cleaning needs to be done...the routines are so basic...just keep working at it... seeing a lot of progress.....Thank u!
Kat, good to see you! When I questioned last week I was concerned about your parents but didn't want to seem to bold to ask. So, I was glad to see in the comments how they (he) is doing. Your words of wisdom are wonderful! Some I have needed and some I was born with if that is possible. I have always been a neat freak which was fine until hubby and I had kids. I spent several years trying to control things until it started affecting my health. Then some things went to pot until I learned I NEED to teach (not scream) my kids. Then every summer it would seem they needed more teaching again. I guess as soon as summer break started their brains and bodies stopped working! 😂🎓😴💤😕😀 My problem area is PAPER!!! Do you ever teach on paperwork retention? Banking, taxes etc.? Thanks for your time, God bless and keep you all~
Kat In The Bucket yes, thank you for the heads up! I appreciate you! I am sure what you are taking your time to provide us is very helpful! Thank you for your kindness and sharing your knowledge. Praise the Lord, happy Sunday ~
The routines for me seem to be the hardest. I do clothes 2x a week and towels & sheets other days. I've got 2 dogs and 20 chickens. No dishwasher. Shower in the morning. And I like yoga 2x a day. Plus zone and baby step for each day
@@flyladykat indeed. And also I remember some years ago having so much clothes to wash and suddenly I found out that my daughters were trying outfits in the bathroom and putting it to the dirty clothes basquet because they didn't want to bother putting it back in its place. Lol😐😄

The concept of placeholders is very helpful. Thank you
I’m so glad it helped you!
You are my internet 'mom', and I love you so much for being so generous in sharing these amazing life hacks.
Your voice is calming.

Pretty darn good, that's how it was! Shiny sink, ready to go for the day!!
I'm just trying to find better ways of doing things so _lazy_ doesn't kick in. Your breakdown is so simple. Routines are so important.

I like how you've split these up!
Thanks Kat! Good reminders. Glad to hear your dad is home. 🤗

I am going to do this daily .
When should the laundry be done? Morning routine or night?
I have to be at work by 5 am. I can’t do all this before work. I work 8-10 hours a day. I’m tired when I get home. Any advice
Very nice n simple truly helpful video kat....love you ❤️❤️❤️❤️ur 1week old flybaby😃😃😆n m can really feel dat calmness n happiness already....thanq so much once again...lots of love....RUHI😇

Missed you and your videos!
With 4 kids I run my dishwasher morning and evening.
Right on the money with kids leaving clean clothes in the laundry basket :/
Oh Kat! How I've missed you!!!
Kat In The Bucket I'm so glad he's back home! Love seeing your smiling face, but family is first, always!
Inspect what you expect; my mom always said trust but verify. Lol! It amounts to the same but I think my daughter will like yours better!
The routines for me seem to be the hardest. I do clothes 2x a week and towels & sheets other days. I've got 2 dogs and 20 chickens. No dishwasher. Shower in the morning. And I like yoga 2x a day. Plus zone and baby step for each day
Have you been looking in my windows? LOL
I've been trying, all these years, to figure out what's wrong with me. Now I know my head is full of ping pong balls!
I have been a fly baby off and on for 15 years or more. My husband asks me to call FLYLADY when things are spinning out of control at home!
I'm with you, I found flylady in 2007.
Make your bed? What if your husband/sig other is still in it!
Mom
Sorry I don't mean to be rude but I'm thinking how is it possible that is so much dirty clothes per person?
@@flyladykat indeed. And also I remember some years ago having so much clothes to wash and suddenly I found out that my daughters were trying outfits in the bathroom and putting it to the dirty clothes basquet because they didn't want to bother putting it back in its place. Lol😐😄
Sorry, you lost me at ‘my little chickies’

It is gross, I'm trying
