Happy Monday! I took the August habit from the habit archives of Flylady so I am hoping it's right (we can check next week). I really need to keep working on the July one. When I was truly a Flylady with a very organized plan, my toilets always looked great because I swished daily. I need to pick some babysteps and do them daily.
Monday possibilities get gas (had to stop on my way to work because I forgot this weekend) Dr. appt. do a 15 min declutter prep breakfast and lunch listening to one WW app run dishwasher

Good Tuesday Afternoon!
Cathy - I think the 3 Flylady tasks I do most faithfully are the making the bed right away in the a.m., the evening routine, and the swish & swipe. We have 2 1/2 baths, and truth be told I don't do them all every day, but I try to rotate through and get at least one of them each day, LOL.
Sorry I forgot to post yesterday...did my usual plant watering, groceries, and did a longer than planned walk on the pond and bird sanctuary trails. Still recovering from our bike ride on Sunday, so I chose the trails that are nice and flat and also mostly in the shade, as it was rather hot and humid.
Tuesday possibilities: --abs & knees ✅ --walk ✅ neighborhood walk...rained during part of it! --practice ✅ --bookkeeping ✅ reconciled one bank stmt --decluttering project —>Wednesday --laundry ✅ --evening routine ✅

Carol: Sorry I have been MIA. I have been having to leave work early some days for Dr. appt so I end up working late other days to stay on top of my work. I have been getting new patients so it is really busy. However, this weekend will be a major cleaning and decluttering of tops of areas because I have someone coming to do a good house cleaning Monday because my cousin is coming on the 7th and our furniture will be coming on the 6th so we need to make room for it.
It's 7:39 and I'm still cooking dinner because I got home so late so I will post my weekend list tomorrow. I like the basic tasks you do, I think they are the most important.

Good morning, busy day of decluttering and clearing off tops of areas. We never have company stay over (actually we never have anyone even come over) except my cousin so I do get nervous when she comes even though she doesn't care what my house looks like. It's a good excuse to get things done that I've had on my list for months. I will say my house stayed cleaner when I taught scrapbooking classes.
Weekend possibility Declutter Clear table tops (set timer if needed) Make guest room bed Pick out towels for guest bathroom Grocery shop
Church WW virtual workshop Look up a couple of WW recipes Call for reservation for dim sum during cousins visit Go through medications and check expiration dates Make list for housecleaner Call for lawn service quotes Prep rx for week
