FlyLady - What is a Control Journal?

From FlyLady's Website, Click here to read the full article.

"I want you to realize that a Control Journal is just a place to put your routines, basic weekly plan, your zones and other information. With a Control Journal you have a place to keep important items without them getting lost in your numerous hot spots." - FlyLady

FlyLady uses a notebook with plastic sheet protectors so she can use a dry-erase marker to check off the completed items. She also color codes each section and the zones so they are easy to find.

Make your journal special for you - think of it as a positive thing. FlyLady has a zippered pouch for family pictures. She also carries stamps, post-it notes, change, paper clips, money, her credit cards, and drivers license, library cards, etc. in the pouch.

On the back-side of FlyLady's journal, she has phone numbers for her husband in case of an emergency and a very special poem that her husband read to her.
