I was on the FLYlady list three years ago (I counted) before it had it&#8217;s own website and was so large. It seems more organised now than it was then. The emails are shorter and to the point. Back then I remember the owner had emails of testimonials and stories about what she did with her day-basically like and email blog.While I think the owner is fantastic for what she does, I really could care less about her thoughts on life in other aspects. I was quite happy with the system then, but after I had my routines down pat, the reminders became unnecessary,and the email became redundant. I unsubbed because I felt I did not need <a title=\"another middle aged lady telling me what to do with my life on a regular basis\">an inbox full of emails to read keeping me from my daily duties<\/a>. Since I had Gorbulas, my old routines I have found are no longer adequate because of the extra person and especially because of the extra attention my second youngest toddler seemed to need. So here I am back to being a &#8220;FLYbaby&#8221;. I do wholeheartedly recommend the system.<\/p>\n<p>In other news, I have a cute story. Rosey Posey was doing an assignment about the 1st Amendment of the Constitution and how it pertained to newspapers, Posco was doing his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.keypress.com\/catalog\/products\/supplementals\/Prod_Miquon.html\">math work<\/a>  Fastolph was listening to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/B000003TW6\/qid%3D1045153220\/sr%3D11-1\/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1\/103-8039441-7874260\">Pure Disco 2<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/psc.disney.go.com\/radiodisney\/\">Radio Disney<\/a> on the headphones and Gorbulas was in baby heaven knocking board books off the shelf, and looking at them. I took the opportunity to go make the boy&#8217;s beds. After a few minutes, Gorbulas realised I was out of eyeshot and began to get hysterical. I heard him crawling down the hallway looking for me, all panicked. I ran out of the boys bedroom scooped him up, Poor Baby. Instantly he threw his chubby little arms around me and quieted down.<\/p>\n<p>I know you should not have children for some pathetic sense of self aggrandizement, but to have someone feel about you like that sure is an ego booster. I often think I am so blessed to have someone who feels that way about me. I do not understand this part of the birth control\/abortion movement-how is it people don&#8217;t always <i>want<\/i> babies around?<\/p>\n<p>I suppose I am not sounding very down to earth. To even out the &#8220;oh, life is so wonderful being a mother&#8221;ness of this blog, while I was nursing Gorbulas to sleep, Fastolph treated himself to a hunk of chocolate cake and left a trail of chocolate cake crumbs leading to the living room-I guess in case he needed to find his way home&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Housewife Stuff I rejoined FLYlady.
