The Great Declutter Your Kitchen and Organize Your Pantry Event! |
Some may wonder why I am writing about this subject in my Dance Till You FLY! mw blog. It is simple. Marilyn’s Way is a group and during the past three years I have come up with a system that many have tried and finds it works better for them than FlyLady. NOW, having said this, the system is influenced by FlyLady and some other things that I have learned along the way. I kind of like to think of my system as more streamlined or the system that gets you ready for FlyLady as she has a WEALTH of information on this topic with a wonderful website that is easy to find information. Maybe someday I will also provide a website. For now I am just sticking to blogging and helping FLYers like myself with limitations find a way to FLY and feel good about themselves.
That is what the ‘Dance Till You FLY!’ mw is about. It is the system I created that is part of Marilyn’s Way and Marilyn’s Way Too!. Both blogs have three years of FlyLady related information you can read and I hope you will visit as there are some blogs I am very proud of and have helped others. Now, on to the subject at hand.
The Great Declutter Your Kitchen And Organize Your Pantry Event!
I had this event in March with great success. I feel in my heart that this is one area of our home that gets used the most and can get disorganized the fastest. So I am having this event two times a year.
This may be your first run through this. Not to fret. Do the best you can because in six months we will have the event again. For those that it is their second run at the event may not have gotten everything they wanted to get done. I know I didn’t. Dance Till You FLY! mw system is about doing what you can. Housework is never finished. It is an ongoing thing as long as we are breathing, there will always be something to do in our homes. What Dance Till You FLY! mw System hopes to teach is focus on the main core of the system ‘Nine Habits Each Day Every Day’ which the printer friendly forms are listed on the top of the Marilyn’s Way Group that you can print out. I chose these habits as I feel these are the important ones that will keep our homes functioning and become automatic so we can focus on weekly habits that are all named with a dance theme to make it fun. Those are what I want you to concentrate on. The third part of Dance Till You FLY! mw System is having Monthly Events so we as a group can share ideas and what we have learned during the event that we can share with others that are just starting on this journey.
What I DON’T want you to do is pull everything out at once to become overwhelmed. A great rule is not to take out any more than you can go through and put back in an hour as we have other parts of the system we practice like Nine Habits and the Weekly Habits that we designate a day to do each week.
Have fun with this event! And as always, please tell us some of the strangest things you find in your kitchen and pantry that will make us all laugh! Laughter gets us through this!
