I motivated moms too... but didn't want to buy it this year. Guess I'm too cheap. But it's super helpful. They used to have a daily email list and I tried to find it and couldn't...

MM was a good starting point for me... I mimicked her layout & put in my own "list" using Excel. I was sick of crossing off the stuff that doesn't apply to our household.

Default Re: I cant function without someone setting me a list-Ibought motivated moms

for me its really helpful and Ive used it in previous years too.because I just dont see the things that need doing.If someone doesnt say -Today your cleaning the hall lightbuls and fitting I just fail to 'see' it needs doing and it never got done.I function really well at lists even if I do roll my eyes and stomp a bit at the prospect of some of the days.I love crossing off stuff on a list too,it really helps to make me do stuff i would otherwise ignore.

Here's the e-mail list that you were looking for, Becca. It sends out two reminders a day. One is the daily recurring chores (make bed, etc) and the other is the other chores (clean toilets, vacuum main/public floors, etc). HTH!
