Hi flylady Diane. Once again thank you for a very helpful video. I always remember your advice about which routine to concentrate on depending on whether you work outside or inside the home. That was such an 'aha moment' for me. On workdays I make sure I don't slip up on my evening routine and on weekends I make sure I start my morning routine. It has made a tremendous difference! 🤗

Hello Danielle
I've always had a morning routine when I was working full time but when I became ill and retired everything changed to the point where I hardly recognised myself or my life! Now I'm creating a routine that suits my current circumstances and health limitations. I think I am finding myself again.
I love your openness and honesty about feeling anxious, a bit scatterbrained, and overthinking things. I think many can relate, and the Flylady routines really help us keep on track, especially the morning routine, for me. Before Flylady took over, there were two other ladies who wrote a book called “Sidetracked Home Executives,” and they wrote about this clutter of the mind that gets us sidetracked. Anyway, thank you for sharing.
This was my favourite video in the series so far, ESPECIALLY for the advice at the end about which routine is most important for which type of worker (at home or out of the house) and for what reasons. Made so much sense- totally my motivational issues in each situation. Thanks for thinking it through for us!
Thank you Diane. I’m a full-time working Mum leaving the house at 8am Mon-Fri and returning at 5:45pm. My morning routine on a workday that I always do is: make bed, get dressed, put load washing on, boil kettle, race kettle while unloading dishwasher, make cup of tea, eat breakfast, load dishwasher with breakfast dishes, shine sink, change bird cage liner/seed/water, change dog’s water & feed dog, empty rubbish and put by door ready to take with me to bin when I leave, put on makeup/do hair, hang out washing, water garden 10 mins, lock house, carry rubbish to the bin and go. I’m also trying to add 20 mins of exercise at the start. I’m usually running out the door. You are correct that most of my cleaning happens at night (bathroom/toilet/kitchen/floors/fold & put away washing) and my weekend is very busy catching up with the housework, decluttering, shopping & gardening. The transition from SAHM to full-time working Mum has been a very big challenge for me.

Wow can I suggest that you pay a cleaner two hours a week to give you some downtime in the weekend, if you can afford it given that you are working full time. Assuming you don’t have a partner as they don’t seem to doing any of it.?
Wow! Look at you hopping out of bed and starting right up. You go girl! :) I've had to modify my morning routine a little. I have fibromyalgia and arthritis and I do NOT move like that in the morning. I get up between 4 & 4:30 a.m. and I just stumble straight to the bathroom and soak in a hot tub for about a half hour. It works and I'm not loading myself with medication. After that I sit for a few with a cup of coffee and go over the FlyLady flight plan for the day and watch 1 or 2 of your videos.Then at 5:30 a.m., the day starts. Dressed to shoes (somedays slippers because I can't find a pair of shoes that don't cause me leg pain to wear all day, but I'm still searching), dogs go out to the bathroom and get fed, insulin given to the diabetic dog, and then I start everything on my morning routine. I'm still really new at this, Day 11, but I'm working it because my life is spinning out of control with CHAOS! Thank you so much for all you do. It's appreciated. God bless!

Dianne, I thank you so much ! Your videos are making a difference in my peace of mind. Blessings to you and your family.
Thank you, Diane. I love this video, you're very inspirational to me.
Keep coming back to this. Such good advice. Thank you. 🌹

Hi Diane, I just found your videos and want to say thank-you! I’ve historically been a terrible clutter bug. I find myself overwhelmed by the mess and it stops me cooking homemade meals and it means I procrastinate like crazy because I just can’t face chores. I’ve started implementing a morning and night routine inspired by your videos. It’s already making a really big difference, especially to my mental clarity and mood- thank-you!!

Oh my word you are so adorable. I’ve been trying to do the FlyLady system since moving into our new home and having my baby 5 months ago; but kept feeling a little overwhelmed and not really getting it. Love your baby step videos and actually watching your routines has been extremely helpful in helping me to be a much more productive stay at home mom and home maker!
Coming back during quarantine to refresh. Thank you for all you do. This helps me and keeps everything running smoothly.
Life change this year so my work routine is done and I've been wondering about how to schedule myself for daily home routine instead. This has been a help for me as I continue to navigate a life change to a new routine. Thank you!
Thank you for this video! It was super helpful! I would love to see your other routines as well🙂 I am in the same season of life as you are and can so relate to everything you talked about right down to the watery eyes and racing thoughts! Blessings❤️

Love the idea of picking out tomorrow’s outfit in the morning. I’m more creative in the morning and sometimes too tired at night to pick out an outfit.
Good morning! I subscribed to your channel a few weeks ago but am just now getting around to watching one of your videos and since I'm struggling with routines right now, this seemed like a good place to start. I was in a very serious accident 2 years ago and I have struggled to find routines that work with my disabilities since then, so it's been hard to stay on track. I love your personality in your video and how you explain the importance of your routines. Plan on watching more of your videos as I have time today. And since I'm sitting at my desk without having done my morning routine yet again, I think I'll go do that now. Thank you for taking the time to share your own journey with us.

Hello Kristina
The last point is definitely the most important one. I'm 25 and moved to my first own flat earlier this year. My morning routine so far is: wake up; lie in bed and deal with the fact that I'm still alive; go to the bathroom; get changed; hurry out of the house because I'm running late; and it's been this way since middle school. I've also been working 3 shifts for 1,5 years now, so morning and evening will be at a different time every week. I won't be able to change that. Instead I thought about doing something like an "after work routine" and later when I've got that down I can think about a "before work routine"
I like the pin, "pray for me, I'm married to a Dane!"

Very helpful Diane. Making my bed on getting out of it has been so helpful to me. I always wear make up too..always have..and it makes me feel better even on "down" days. Making ironing part of my morning routine has also helped me...I used to have the most horrendous ironing pile - the family searching for clothes, none ready. Oh it was dreadful!

Hi Diane. I really enjoy your videos. I am a little O/C when it comes to keeping everything clean/tidy, but I simply cannot function in clutter and chaos. It makes me crazy, anxious. My 2 daughters also keep exceedingly clean/tidy homes. Like you, first thing I do is make my bed every morning, then feed my 2 spoiled indoor cats, clean their litter box, fill bird feeders, sweep/tidy patio, have cup of coffee, then shower/dress. I work from home now so I can do laundry or vacuum in-between emails since I don't go out for lunch. I use the Marie Kondo method for folding linen, clothing, etc. I go through closets quarterly and donate to charity those items I am not utilizing. I have a closet of quality garments...but not a lot. Less is more. Like you, I absolutely hate clutter. A cluttered home is a dirty home. I can't think or relax if there is clutter about. My fridge is sanitized weekly when I do my grocery shopping. Dry goods/canned goods are neatly organized in cabinets. Kitchen linens are neatly folded in drawers. I vacuum daily and steam floors once/twice week to sanitize. I dust weekly, including window sills and fan blades on the overhead fans. Bed linens are washed twice weekly. I wash the mattress pad and pillows every other week. Bathrooms cleaned/sanitized daily. Sounds like a lot, but like you say, once you make cleaning/organization a daily routine, it becomes automatic. I love having a clean, fresh smelling home. I've lived in my apartment complex for 10 years and whenever they do any maintenance, I'm told "This is the cleanest apartment I've ever seen, it smells so good in here!" Then they tell me the "horror stories" they encounter daily, lol! BTW, my daughter and I vacationed in Copenhagen last October after reading a Hygge book. We both fantasized about moving there (!!). I almost married a Dane long ago. He was perfect in every way but liked Heineken a bit TOO much...🍺😉

Hi Dianne, we had snow flurries on Saturday morning too. I love my morning routine because it helps me feel like I know where to start and what to do.I find many days if I can not get other tasks done at least my house is clean enough and tidy from doing my morning routine. This is where I went wrong all the years while raising 3 children, I would try to do a big project like reorganizing a closet or completely emptying and scrubbing the fridge and at the end of day before supper I would turn around and the house would be a complete disaster( but my closet or fridge was clean) and then I would have to make supper mess too.I was always in CHAOS.

It's so nice to get out of that chaos - long live Flylady!
Thank you very much, Diane, for this one. I started with Flylady sometime around 2005 and then in 2009 completely fell off the waggon because of ... well, life. ;-) I joined again last year (2021), knowing that I had a very difficult move ahead of me. (Our lease had been terminated because of own needs of our landlord.) I didn't "advertise" it, because most of my friends, not knowing the system, would probably have told me I was crazy to try this while in limbo between one flat and the next. But I mostly stuck to the baby steps and the decluttering during that time. And especially the decluttering was a GREAT help and made the move a lot easier. (And left me with a lot less "stuff"!) Now things have quieted down and I am trying to get back into the general system. But somehow I hardly ever get the evening routine of putting together my clothes for the next day done, which Marla claims to be amongst the most important ones. So over the last few weeks I have really been struggeling with it. But you explaining that people working from home might find the morning routine much more important definitely helped! I just realised that, when I first started with Flylady, I was mostly working outside of my home, while now I am mostly at home. So there is no need to grab clothes without having to think about them. I much more prefer to have a look outside of my window to see what the weather is like, to notice what my mood is, and then choose my clothes accordingly. So, goodbye bad conscience, thanks to you! :-)
love the realtime footage! thats what i want to see more of on youtube-REAL LIFE!

I can't seem to get down either one, although I do have a few things I have incorporated during my day such as beds made (always), dishes done (usually). I am starting again and again, and not giving up! Each day is a new day to begin again! Thank you for the lovely video.

Keep going, Winnie - you can do this! 🖐😀
I set up all of the weeks outfits each week and hang on a movable ironing rack.. I also pack the entire weeks school and work lunches on Sunday too, so each day I don’t have to think about what to wear or packing lunches.
New Flybaby here, but as an empty nester, married school teacher, my morning routine has always been pretty much FlyLadyish out of necessity (or my own weird quirks) - make bed, coffee, shower, dress, countertops, sinks, and pets. Afternoon and evening do need structure as I let necessity dictate priority, which means...always behind or catching up with household chores, planning, etc. I love the new format I am adapting. Thank you so much for sharing!
