The Fly Lady & Sidetracked Sisters

We started with chore lists decorated with High School Musical for Sassy and Star Wars the Clone Wars for Roonsie Boy. We got moving a little bit with these, but were still struggling to finish our chores. So, a couple days ago, we had a visit from "The Fly Lady" or "Cleaning Fairy" as we call her. Many of you may be familiar with her website : www.flylady.net . She decided to visit us in the night and leave the kids a list of jobs. She came back last night and left a treat for the kids for the chores they finished. I think she was a little over ambitious with her list- they did a great job with over half the jobs, but still have some left for today. She said she'd come back one more time tonight to check and see if they get any additional treats.
I read a book The Side Tracked Home Executives, by Pam Young and Peggy Jones (One of my other VERY FAVORITES!), where they would be "house fairies" for each other. Since, I didn't have any funny friends to come dressed up as house fairies, I was glad the FLY Lady could help us out.
