OK, I fully admit I capitalized "CHALLENGES" in the subject not only to line up with how they are being posted but also to make sure this thread gets a little notice in this super busy forum! :bag
Can someone tell me the difference between the "messies challenges" that klpmommy is posting and the other challenges that jodi is posting? Are they geared more towards different types of people/families? I noticed Jodi's mentioned shiny sinks and laundry more like Flylady.

:yes Jodi's was started a couple months ago as a homekeeping challenge. I started the messies challenge middle of last month for those of us who struggle with messy tendencies and found the other challenge to be way too much. The messies challenge is for baby steppers.

I have heard the challenge I am doing refered to as a "cleanie" challenge but I *hate* to name it that -- I'd fall on my face then :nails
If you have a suggestion for a name I'dlove to name it more specifically but can't think of anything :think :think :think

I never thought of the other challenge as a cleanie challenge (b/c in my mind cleanies don't *need* challenges to do their housework. ;) ) but maybe a less messy challenge. :giggle

The keeping up challenge? The staying ahead challenge? We messies are striving to catch up and/or play defense, so maybe you over there are on offense. :think

The first thing I thought of after reading your post LIz was "football homekeepers challenge"
Hmm. ..
**staying ahead homekeeping challenge
**keeping up homekeeping challenge
**offensive homekeeping challenge
:think :think
Those are all good but all of a sudden the thought popped in my mind the supercalafragalisticexpialadocious challenge :giggle :crazy

Ok, I think I got it (I just posted this same question in the thread that Jodi started). I guess I'll be following along with Kimberly's then since I'm DEFINATELY a "messy". :yes
