Heard this on the radio as I was unable to sleep last night
www.flylady.net
Seems a bit Utopian/Stepford Wives to me, but you might find some handy hints

Just scanned the home page . . . I think this website could do with taking a bit of it's own advice and de-cluttering it's verbose content somewhat . . .

But seriously - don't you think that people who need someone else to tell them to shine their sink

really do need to sort themselves out???

And what if you don't have a sink that can be 'shined' (stone/enamel etc)? Does that mean that you are forever to remain in a limbo that is labelled as 'inadequate'???

agree with you Yola - and look what happened to Martha Stewart!

I'm just off to shine my sink

Looks like some good tips on there so added it to 'Favorites' list

Really good section there with 100's of gift ideas for children right through to grandparents.......could have done with that a month ago!

Put in in my favourites too for a more intense read later!

As long as my house is clean enough for me then that is good enough!!! If anyone else dont like it then thats their problem!!!! I am constantly cleaning this house - it has to be good enough!!!

mind boggling amount of info there

Have also added to favourites for a more indepth peruse later

What worries me is the number of recommendations for 'family tickets to the zoo' as a childrens' present. Now; I have a problem with zoos personally . . . unless their completely animal-welfare rather than profit focused . . .

I will have a deeper look at it when I have a moment to browse the site in detail however as a brief viewing may be doing it injustice

STEP AWAY FROM THE SCARY FLY LADY!!

Seriously have friends on my scrapping forum who love her and others who hate the million and one e-mails you get once you signed up.

Not my cup of tea as life is to short to shine sinks!
