I really don’t know why I didn’t think of this before to write as a blog. Many have been sick with cold and flu this season and it makes it very difficult to FLY. So what should you do? I suggest you make a ‘Emergency FLYing Kit.’
What are two things that pile up when you get sick? Dishes and Laundry. If you are practicing the ‘Daily 9’s’ it shouldn’t get too bad. They are the habits that keep you, your family and your home going. I can’t help you with the laundry but I can with the dishes!
Emergency Flying Kit
That’s right. It is something to put together ‘before’ you get sick. It is as follows:
Paper Plates
Plastic Silverware
Plastic Glasses
Three ‘Meal Ideas’ that promote ‘Easy Clean up.’
Some may say using these things are not good for the environment. I say NOT using them is not good for a sick caregiver such as yourself. If you had a birthday party you are likely to have some leftover paper plates. Maybe from the holidays. Use them up.
I average just two times a week where I will eat a meal on a paper plate. I have plastic silverware and glasses if I really need them. It is just me so washing some silverware is no big deal for me. But if you have a family, the last thing you want to do are dishes.
FLY stands for First Love Yourself others come next. Do yourself a favor and put a kit together. Put some napkins in there too. If you don’t have to worry about all the cleanup you will have to do when you feel better, who knows maybe you just might recover sooner!
I hope you will take this idea seriously. I live with Fibromyalgia and for me just eating on paper plates a couple of times a week makes a world of difference in my FLYing.

I love this idea! ! I am going to mail my mother n law a pretty set of paper plates etc.I think it will lift her mood to have some pretty paper plates and matching napkins.
What a great idea. I'm currently at home laid up with a summer cold and now wishing I'd thought of this. Never fear it will be actioned and ready for the next time.
