Still fluttering

So newbies at FlyLady are said to be "fluttering" and eventually "flying" once they have their lives/homes under control. I have been doing this for one week and I am happy to say that things are still clean! My kitchen is shiny and neat and my upstairs bathroom is clean as a whistle. It takes about 10 seconds to do the swish n swipe (wipe the counters and swish out the toilet bowl) every morning and it is so awesome and encouraging to walk in there during the day and be greeted by cleanliness. A suggestion was made to me to clean my shower a little each day while I am in it, so I have been doing that this past week as well. This morning I finished! It only took an extra minute attached to each shower and now it is sparkly clean. Usually I wait until it is super grimy then set aside an afternoon, bring all my cleaning supplies into the bathroom, roll up my pants, and spend an hour scrubbing. Hard to do as a mom of young kids whose naps and appetites are unpredictable at times. There are other areas in my house that still need work but I am very proud of my progress so far.

My shower is my least favorite thing to clean in my bathroom. Think I'm gonna try this little at a time plan.
