Guest, I'm not really doing

Guest, I'm not really doing things the flylady way. I do the bathrooms when I have time to do the bathrooms, and the same with vacuuming. If I were to do it all at once, it would take me longer than an hour. But, I'm nitpicky. I suppose Flylady means to quickly do the traffic areas (vacuuming), then worry about the smaller spots (like using the extendable hose) when you are in that zone. She says don't do any chore longer than 10 minutes. But to tell you the truth, I haven't been sticking to the system very well.

I still have two loads of laundry to fold, but did fold 5 (that includes the 2 from the other day I didn't fold). I managed to keep the kitchen clean, and I got most of the walls in the garage-soon-to-be-office cleaned (which involved scraping down several mud-dobber nests). DH still has to tear out a shelf so I can get back in that corner, but I hope by Thursday we can begin painting the ceiling and walls. I imagine on Wednesday we will go to town and get all the paint, beadboard, chairrail and baseboards and get the walls completed by the weekend. Then maybe next week we will tackle tiling the floor. Then that room will be done!! Whoohoo!! Next project: the kitchen!

But, I'm getting ahead of myself. I babysit tomorrow. Hopefully it will be better this week because I found the exersaucer and cleaned it up REAL good. Hope he likes it! Unfortunatly, grandma told me that he has a double ear-infection. I don't know how to deal with that, my kids never had those as babies, and only my girls have had one in their whole life (when they were like 2 and 4). Will be an interesting day to say the least. Girls have basketball practice tomorrow night, and I will hit the grocery store while they are there.

I'm off to fold those final two loads of laundry, finish watching my movie (Elizabethtown, which I only rented because Paula Deen is in it!), and hopefully Drew will fall asleep in the next hour (before 11 would work for me!). The company didn't come tonight for dinner, so the evening was a little better for me.
