WELCOME! We are followers of FLYLADY principles for decluttering our homes, as well as WEIGHT WATCHER guidelines for healthy lifestyle choices. We are working on consistent, daily steps to achieve our goals.
Food, activity, sleep, and mindset. These are the four pillars of WW’s approach to weight loss.
We are in Zone 4: The Master Bedroom
July Habit: Swish & Swipe
You’re never too late to get something done.

Good morning dear friends. Carol, I answered your question about the pastries going to the mission yesterday. We actually may suspend it for right now because they barely have any and the bakery is one way and the mission is quite a way from the bakery. It’s a lot of gas and because they prefer we pick it up on a Sunday, it limits our afternoon. I will let them know that if they have a lot left over, to just let me know and we will come that week.
Monday possibilities:
—remove the things I took out of my closet that have been sitting in the master bedroom and either throw them away or find a new home.
—several areas need some “fire drills” just to many things never put away
—practice
—do some decluttering and organizing in my craft room
—wash fruit we bought and cut up watermelon
—may try my hand at homemade pastry tarts (similar to “Pop Tarts”
—make Amazon order
(obviously this is a long list so some of it will get done tomorrow or Wednesday)

When we built this house we didn't add a linen closet/room and wish we had done so. The weather is very humid and mold and mildew on stored linens does occur from time to time. Wish I could figure out how to store the linens to prevent that and also had a place dedicated to storing them.
Master Bedroom has a PILE of winter blankets on it...no idea where to store them in summer...so...they stay out on a surface cluttering up the room.

Good morning. Lot’s of rain in the forecast. We were hoping to go our after DH’s dr. appt. but where we wanted to go is a bit of a ride and if it is raining hard, it won’t be safe. The other day we were going for a day trip and had to turn around after an hour because the storm was so bad. NC has crazy summer thunderstorms.
Thursday possibilities
—practice
—DH dr. appt
—possible ride to winery for lunch
—If no lunch out: declutter in house

No water as water main was leaking so they have to repair it...did DEEP into the ground, find the leak, and fix it...expected to be without water for four or more days so...no cleaning and perhaps no dishwashing, either.

Still no water to the house so conservation continues. I will put some clean soapy water in a bowl and some rinse water in another bowl and do some dishes today, I think. Not sure if the dishwasher or handwashing uses less water.
As for cleaning and exercise...don't want to sweat more as showers are currently being rationed...
Fingers crossed the water main is fixed this week.
