I used to be a flylady. If you wanna learn the flylady way visit the link to flylady's home page...the link is in the right column. Flylady is a fabulous website to help you get your home and life decluttered and organized.....slowly.....one tackle at a time. Each week she focuses on a specific "zone" in your home and has a cleaning check list for each zone along with "Kelly's daily missions" specific for each zone. I love this website but fell off the flylady's wagon a long time ago and thus have lost control of my home. So I'm jumping back on today. This week's zone is the Kitchen. And Kelly's mission was about looking up....taking 10 minutes in the kitchen to clean the light fixtures, cob webs, refrigerator top, etc. So here's what I tackled in my kitchen.
Please don't laugh at me for having plastic plants in my house. I love plants but they don't stay green for me so I have to go plastic. And this piece of plastic had 1/2 inch of dust on it....so I hosed it down.

The top of my frig actually didn't look all THAT bad only because it's a relatively new frig. Don't ask why there's a baseball bat up there as I have no answer for you. But I took everything down and washed it off (it all also had 1/2 inch of dust on it)

My kitchen counters are cluttered with several areas of clutter collections. Here are 2 such spots before the decluttering process.
