FlyLady has a great 31 baby step plan so as to not overwhelm the flybaby who wants to gain control of her life again. Rather than jump into the deep end of the pool and overwhelm myself, I’m going to embark on these baby steps.
Today is Day 1. She says
Day 1 Go Shine your sink.(snip)you will keep it shiny by drying it out after each time you use it and making sure when you go to bed that it is shining so it will make you smile in the morning. This is how I get to hug you each day!
I can do that! And, I have to tell you – for me – it really is wonderful to wake up to a clean sink. If you don’t understand – try it! You’ll see!

I woke up wondering “2008. What will that bring?”
- A new family member?
- A permanent home?
- 21st anniversary
- A 8 yr old
- A 12 yr old
- A 13 yr old (tomorrow!!)
I tell you – just those ‘possibilities’ can make a woman a bit fearful. I can only cling to the Hope I have and put one foot in front of the other.
Before I got out of bed I decided a few things will change this year…
- I want to find a way to save our memories – and not just on this blog. Not sure if that means scrapbooking. More likely it will be digital scrapbook. Julie – look for me to be contacting you real soon about what that means! 🙂
- I’m going to start FLYing again. After my pregnancy, moving to California and losing Joshua – I got out of the habit of my schedules. I miss knowing that I can welcome unexpected company joyfully. I miss waking up to a clean sink and a plan for the day! So, I’ll be making some babysteps very soon. I’ll plan to be accountable here.
That’s really it so far. These are really big things in the ‘big picture’ while allowing me to be flexible for what “might be”.
Blessing to you all, my friends.

Today I was tagged by both Teresa and Sara! And, to be honest, I’m stressing a bit about this one! But first – here are the rules:
Link to the person that tagged you (check)
Post the rules on your blog. (check)
Share 7 random and/or weird facts about yourself on your blog, (this is where my stress is coming from!)
Tag 7 random people at the end of your post and include links to their blogs. (this one will be easy ! lol)
Let each person know that they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.
Seven Random Facts about me…
1) I love to play games like Sudoku, Logic puzzles, crosswords and the like. They help me fall asleep! lol
2) I do not like to cook or bake or anything involving the kitchen. I do like to eat though! 😉
3) I am a bit weird about having things line up properly or be in some sort of order.
4) I do not like small spaces.
5) While I like both tea and coffee – I don’t like to drink either of them until my cup is lukewarm. I know…it’s weird.
6) I’d prefer to stay home than go ANYWHERE. I’m definitely an introvert and am drained by being with people. I need quiet and alone time to recharge. However, this rule doesn’t seem to apply to my knit group – I never get run down when I hang out with them! What’s up with that?!
7) I’m scared about the all the big changes that might happen in 2008. I think it’s the might part that scares me most.
And, I’m tagging:
CC, Angela, Theresa, Lauren, Ashley , Cindy (who’s blog is getting dusty 😉 & Ruth
