I might sound CRAZY...but I have recently fallen in love with my apron and the fly lady. WHAT? who is the fly lady? whats up with the June Cleaver apron? well yes I might just be feeling a little like June these days.
I have been trying to find a way to cram EVERYTHING into my days. how in the world do I keep up with the laundry and the dog and the three kids and now my part time obsession (photography) and still have a halfway clean house and do the things I want to do? hmmm...you don't know? well neither did I and I was getting VERY frustrated. And then my friend told me about a book she was reading... the fly lady, she is teaching me how to fly {finally loving yourself}.
I have to say I was motivated right away. I have been so excited about following her steps, It sounds goofy and you have to check it out to really know what I am talking about ..but keeping my sink shining is helping me in so many ways I can't even begin, The kids and have this routine down to a science this week and I am shining as much as my sink is. Now for the apron part. Since the fly lady sais get dressed all the way to your shoes even first thing in the morning, I need something to keep the bleach and other stuff off of my clothes so hence the apron. plus it makes me feel all homemakerish and these stylish aprons I found are so CUTE!
TESTIMONIAL: o.k. so maybe ya'll aren't as big of slackers as I am and you all have this cleaning and kids thing down to a science. but since I have started this I have been on time. I am always ready to go and my kitchen has never been shinier. Not to mention my arch enemy the LAUNDRY is almost all the way caught up, and it has been painless. I sound like a goof. BUT I wanted to share, because so far I have LOVED this. Thanks Cathi this came at a time I REALLY needed it!!

I found the FlyLady in 2004 when we moved into our house here. I had just spent 2 hours cleaning when a 5-minute freak horizontal rainstorm soaked several rooms I had just cleaned. I thought I was going to have a breakdown.
I searched online for tips on keeping a clean home, found her, and have been grateful ever since.
YOU CAN DO ANYTHING FOR 15 MINUTES!
Alright, you have totally got my attention! You summed up my life in a paragraph. So my question is where do I start. When I got on the website, it had several books. Which one do you have?
I love the aprons, you must feel like the queen of the house wearing something that cute.
Hey, I gave you an award on my blog. :)
