How to Manage Your Home Without Losing Your Mind: Dealing with Your House's Dirty Little Secrets by Dana K. White
3.0
I kinda can't believe I read this, but it's a testament to the influence of Myquillyn Smith, the Nester, who recommended it as her favorite. I got it via Hoopla, which is free via my library but made me appreciate Audible so much more (no chapter navigation, and at least with this recording, no pause between chapters).
I wouldn't recommend it as an audio-book (the blog comments and the slow-building routine at the end don't translate well) but I would have enjoyed this book back when a good friend first shared FlyLady and I was obsessed with building routines while my kids were babies.
She does a great job of describing the right-brain approach to decluttering ("Squirrel!") and why putting it away right now, even if that means being inefficient and making several trips up and down stairs, is best for certain people.
I didn't relate the cleaning chapters as I am a germ freak and was a bit horrified...but I could see listening to her second book on decluttering---because the truth is, after listening to this on the commute home at night, I had more motivation to sweep my floors and take a bag to Good Will than I do most evenings!
