Sneak Peek for the Week!
Dear Friends,
Welcome to your Sneak Peek for the Week! This email will give you the
missions and overview for the week - sort of like a secret
newsletter!! This email will be long in length but filled with fun and
information!
********************
Sneak Peek for the Week: May 11 - 17, 2008
********************
New Tools in the FlyShop -
The FlyLady MOP!!!!! We have been searching and searching to find a
better way to have those quick sweep/damp mop type mops but we were
always so frustrated by the waste of those disposable cloths plus you
had to use so many of those cloths, that they were just plain
expensive and wasteful. We came up with a fun and greener quick mop!
Go and check it out: http://www.flylady.net/pages/FlyShop_mop.asp
Rubba Scrubbas are back in the Fly Shop - You all have been grabbing
these up before our manufacturer can make more!!! We order more and so
do you! LOL! http://www.flylady.net/pages/FlyShop_rubba_scrubba.asp
************************************************************
DO IT NOW! DON'T WAIT! THINGS GET DONE IN 2008!
*************************************************************
Habit for May 2008
Moving in May!
Its time for a new month and a new habit. Its time for Moving in May!
This month, we are going to Bless our Hearts by doing 15 minutes of
Loving Movements each day. I know you can do it and will be cheering
for you along the way. Our goal is for everyone to start moving 15
minutes a day. If that is too much; do this in 5 minute increments.
Add just a little bit of loving movement to your day. Make this a
habit for every day.
We are so excited for moving in May this year! We are taking a
Virtual Walking Tour of the World. Jessica and Lee are working really
hard to make this fun and exciting for everyone!!
If you need a jump start on what to do for moving - go to the
homepage: www.FlyLady.net and scroll down to the royal blue section
titled Reinforce Your Habits - we will have a moving mission from
Jonathan each day!!
During our tour Leanne has been providing us with fun recipes for some
of our stops along the way. In addition to being available in your
inbox these will be available on the website as well. Remember that
this is about moving! You don't have to walk to move, you can dance,
play tag with your kids, chase fireflies, hula hoop, jump on a
trampoline, whatever! Every 15 minutes of movement equals one mile on
our tour of the world! Get your kids involved - have them move with
you and let them post their minutes too! You can post 11 minutes, you
can post 53 minutes - it does not have to be in 15 minute increments!
This is about having fun!
Please continue to watch your inboxes as more and more information
about this tour will be coming to you every day to help remind you to
keep Moving in May!! Stay tuned!

MISSIONS FOR THE WEEK - Zone 3 - The Main Bathroom and the Laundry Room
************************************************************
Zone 3: Mission #1 Monday
Dear Friends,
We are in the Zone 3 which is the main bathroom and another room
in the house. This week that other room will be the Laundry Room.
The bathroom: Clean around the backside and
the sides of our toilets. The wipe down all the surfaces.
The Laundry Room: Today we are going to declutter all of the
laundry supplies that we have hanging around. This means to
toss whatever you have that you do not use or do not like. This
also means to toss all of those empty boxes and bottles that seem
to pile up. Those soap boxes, dryer sheet boxes, fabric softener
bottles - you all know just what I am talking about! LOL!
I think I have a few of these myself that need to be tossed!
Have Fun!
******************************************
Zone 3: Mission #2 Tuesday
Dear Friends,
This week we are in the main bathroom and the laundry room. Your
mission for today combines both of those rooms!
Have you noticed that your bathroom begins to smell bad and you
can't find the stinky culprit. We are going after these yucky odors.
Take your rugs, all the fuzzy stuff on your toilet, and the towels
that are just for show and we are going to wash them. While you
are in the laundry room grab an old rag or washcloth and wipe down
the lid of the washing machine and dryer. I am always shocked at the
dust and stuff that seems to just accumulate here. Shine those
babies up!
With the rugs in the washer: Sweep the bathroom floor and take a
dirty towel and wet it and just mop the floor. When the Rugs are
finished put them back in your wonderful smelling bathroom!

Zone 3: Mission #3 Wednesday
Dear Friends,
When you go in your bathroom each morning do you have trouble seeing
yourself in the mirror. Is your beautiful image blurred from the
toothpaste splatters and water marks?
Grab your favorite window cleaner and let's bring a shine to the
glass. This will only take a few short minutes and while you are at
it, shine that sink too.
Your Laundry Room Mission is to clean out your lint filter and double
check your vent hose. Lint build up in the filter and in the vent
hose is a leading cause of house fires. Something so easy for us to
check but something that we just don't remember to do. Also look
underneath your dryer as well, lint has a tendency to fly around and
then get caught up under the dryer.

***************************************
Zone 3: Mission #4 Thursday
Dear Friends,
Your next mission is to clean out your bathtub. If you don't do it
everyday, the bathtub ring takes on a life of its own. Let's wipe
down our tubs and get rid of that ring. If you haven't done it
in a while you may need to use a little cleanser. Most of the time a
little soap on a rag will take care of it.
Your Laundry Room mission for today is to empty the trash can
that always seems to get forgotten! You will get bonus points if
you remember to replace the bag once you take out the used one!

************************************************
Zone 3: Mission #5 Friday
Dear Friends:
You have scrubbed, shined, swished, swiped and washed this week, now
it is time to enjoy the fruits of your labor! Your mission for
today is to take time out for you. Take a bath or shower and enjoy
it! Take your time when washing your hair, scrubbing your body,
shaving the forest off your legs and just enjoy the moment of being
alone in your fresh, sparkly bathroom.
Your laundry room mission for today is to place a picture of your
family or favorite pet or a picture of something that is special to
you in your laundry room. This allows you to see something pleasant
when you are blessing the laundry.
Love to you all!
Kelly
