Now that you’ve made pages for all your routines, you’ve completed a whole section of your control journal.
Take a divider and label it “Routines” to mark the spot. The next step we’ll do is add our Basic Weekly Plan. In Step Two of building your Control Journal, you put seven blank pages (labeled for each day of the week) in the Weekly section. These pages are for your Basic Weekly Plan. I want you to think about everything that needs to be done during a full week in your home, then divide your list up into what days you want to do the jobs. For more information about the Basic Weekly Plan, go to the FLYing Lesson about Routines and look at FlyLady’s Basic Weekly Plan.

Be sure to read How to Cook Pot Roast before you begin for best results. This recipe is a meal in one pot. It's flavorful, savory, aromatic, and delicious, with the best texture of beef I have ever had. You can change up the vegetables you put into this recipe, of course, but I think the combination of onion, garlic, baby carrots, and potatoes is perfect with the rich beef. Still, parsnips, turnips, or whole mushrooms would be nice additions to this hearty recipe.
There's no more comforting recipe on earth for a cold and snowy winter night. The aroma that drifts through your house as this recipe cooks is simply intoxicating. All you need to complete this wonderful meal is a fresh green salad tossed with avocados, grape tomatoes, and sliced mushrooms. Preparation Combine flour, salt, pepper, marjoram, and thyme on a large plate and coat the beef with this mixture.

I love the convenience of the instant oatmeal packets sold in grocery stores, but I do not like the cost. My children also love the instant oatmeal packets, and so I researched until I came up with this recipe for making them ourselves. Over time, we have added to the list of variations for this recipe, and have come up with some very fun packets, which are delicious as well as economical. We make these up as a family project, and the children help to choose which extra ingredients to add to the basic oatmeal packets. This is not only fun, but keeps them excited about eating them later, because they helped to make them.
I hope you find them useful.
