I think the flylady routine is too difficult for me, even with babysteps. So for now I am taking it back to little tiny ant steps and after spending 15 minutes on the computer doing “my stuff” (ie having fun) I have then been dealing with 5 things in the house, whether that’s clothes or washing up or stuff to be put out for recycling. I’ve only done it for a day so far but already things seem on the up.

My timer really IS my best friend. So I’m taking the theory from Flylady but using my own methods for the moment. You never know, I might even work up to a full 15 minutes of housework eventually!
