I liked and subscribed. I love this video especially because you actually go out to work like I do.Usually all the other youtubers stay at home.Please do more videos like this. And I would like to see what your typical lunches are like.Thank you thank you for showing me how someone that goes out to work can get it done. 😊😀

[@CheezyPies]

I liked it and would love to see your evening routine. I love your planner. It's functional and neat. :)

[@Pinkoflove3]

CheezyPies I love it that you work, work out and still clean. Do you cook mostly at home? Love it that you have a dog. Would love to see the evening routine and you tiding up after your dog with hair and such. New sub here

[@karliepatterson2803]

Awe, Gus is so adorable, he is very well behaved too! Thanks for sharing your morning routines, it was very helpful! :)

[@sylviastewart7717]

I like your easy going style. I love the roominess of the house too.

[@punkreaarasia5557]

Beautiful...LOL...i remember how cut and dry this routine was for me to before kids..lol

[@JennyMaine]

Wonderful video! I really enjoyed seeing how you incorporate your FlyLady routine into your planner and your day. Yes, we'd love to see the evening routine, too!

[@valeb410]

Great morning routine, great little tips, really cute dog and a bit of a house tour. I really liked this video!!

[@carrocena]

Great job, might be one of the better explanations of incorporating fly lady routines into a working girl's schedule. It was a great help, please do more! Plus, I'm a planner user too!

[@susanwebster7584]

Gus is super adorable!

[@jitskebilijam9065]

Thanks for this video. It's great that you break everything down, showing how little time it all takes. A great inspiration for a single mom with two kids and a full time job. This looks achievable.

[@mysonruns]

Thank you for filming your version of flylady. I just started 3 weeks ago & I love it!

[@zombeefan6428]

Awesome video! Very motivating. Thanks for posting!

[@gretabrown1983]

Great job! It was so fun to see your morning routine. Your husband must be good about cleaning up after himself. Mine packs lunches but forgets to wipe the counter so I just wait til he is finished then wipe up. It's a small thing but I do appreciate him making lunch for himself and the kids so I've never said anything to him.

[@jjscosita]

Okay that Gus is just adorable.

[@emilybh6255]

Yes. But I hope on days Gus doesn't want to wait in his carrier for his food it isn't withheld. Making pets do tricks or obey commands before they get their meals is cruel. It is one thing to withhold a treat but not an entire meal.

[@Delmajesty]

Super cute video! Now I need to go clean up my kitchen!!

[@balancedhealthyliving6500]

I really like how you edited in your routine, with your to-do's. Great to see the routine in action! 😊

[@ImperfectMinimalist]

Thank you for making this video. It is good to see your morning routine in action. I downloaded your routine template printable a couple of weeks ago, they are really helping to keep me focused and on track.

[@calamityjane4962]

Really enjoyed your video, looking forward to your night time one. I think we all would like to see whats in your lunch bag and would love to see your meal prep and planning ideas

[@michelemyankazt6657]

Very interesting, and I would love to see your evening routine. Great job on your first vlog.

[@GradKat]

Good video! I admire this lady’s organisation. She has worked out a routine that suits her lifestyle and that’s great. But I still think we women drive ourselves to do FAR TOO MUCH. As a young working mother I did too. Only now that I am old can I appreciate the full benefit of relaxation.

[@lindacurtis589]

Newbie here! I loved your morning routine. Very inspiring!

[@lisadiamond9490]

Love your kitchen pictures!

[@BlossomsBungalow]

I loved your first vlog style video & would love to see you do an evening routine one. It always helps & motivates me to see another Flybaby actually doing their routines.

[@AroundtheBlueBend]

The 'wear one more time' drawer is BRILLIANT! :)

[@marieriley6062]

The video was great! I liked that you get this all done before you go out to work. You even got a workout in!

[@momof6boysandaprincess592]

My mornings never go this smoothly! Thumbs up for you! 👍

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

I am sure once I have kids mine won't go so smooth anymore either! =) Thanks for watching!

[@journaldude7092]

Great video! We like the Method line of cleaners too. The grapefruit scent is really nice and clean. Good stuff!

[@ShelitaRN]

this was awesome, it's one thing to show us it written down on paper but it really brings it to life when you show us how you implement it, thanks so much for taking out the time, you did an amazing job! love you checklist by the way!

[@tameraalexander1249]

It is August of 2020, and I just found your Chanel. You are absolutely delightful, and I subscribed. Thank you for sharing your routine. Take good care.

[@christinecortese9973]

You did great! I love vlogs & would love to see an evening routine.

[@maelindaseawell5269]

Thanks for the video. So easy to follow along. You make the routine easy to implement. Your "plans Meet Paper" look interesting. Thanks for the link.

[@cherylcoolidge8249]

Just subscribed. Loved your fly lady morning routine. Show more fly lady videos. Thank you!

[@servantrose]

what a great practice for you for whenever you guys might have kids. I wish I had done this BEFORE there were kids and chaos

[@pixxa37]

Amy your home is PRISTINE! Thank you fr showing how you do things, I found a few tips in this video. Your kitchen is huge,it can be used to do many things during the day with all that surface room

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Thanks! It is really nice to have so much counter space! Thank you for watching =)

[@ettasargent4798]

Truly enjoyed watching your morning routine. waiting for the evening routine, Thank you.

[@Salsa7Chik]

This was great! Would definitely love to see an evening routine so helpful :)

[@emmag6255]

Well done, I thought that was great, couldn't tell it was your first one 🙂

[@Tori21921]

I loved this so much! I would love to see the evening routine!

[@jennythomas3208]

Lovely video. I'd like to see more flylady routine videos

[@kyliejones9047]

Great video! Thanks for sharing.

[@rosannebent]

Great routine! Your dog is sooooooo cute

[@kristinschaoticlife]

This was great! I love having a morning and night time routine. =)

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

I saw your night time routine today too! It was a great video!

[@tonpap]

Loved it!

[@minimalisa3671]

I really enjoy your videos. Your home is lovely and seems very minimal and organized. Could you do some room tour/ closet/cabinet tours to show how you have things organized?

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Thanks for the video idea! I will definitely add that to my list of videos to film! Thanks, Amy PlansMeetPaper

[@vickie7319]

I would like to see your evening routine. 👍

[@StephanieSmith-fd2dt]

Your outfit is sooooo cute!

[@sanhitadatta9447]

yes please make an evening routine, with your flylady stuff just the way you did this one. great job

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Hi Sanhita! I posted my evening routine yesterday! Here is the link if you would like to check it out: kzbin.info?o=U&video_id=ZIdmxN0iZhg Thanks for watching! Amy PlansMeetPaper

[@trailertrish]

U talk to ur dog exactly how I talk to my cats. 😂

[@katediy4563]

As a single person, this was relatable. So many following The Fly Lady method have kids and that carries its own added chores and messes. But I worry you aren't getting enough sleep. Nearly three hours for Morning Routine, I'd want an extra hour in bed. 💤

[@jennylhenry78]

Seriously. I wouldn't get up at 5am, probably even if someone paid me. LOL

[@dianebrock1999]

awesome vid

[@anjawiniger5151]

Loved that video. Thank you!

[@Kathy_Ellen]

Very Helpful!! I Love Flylady Too!! Thank you. :)

[@marthawestman1381]

Thank you for sharing your routine! ☺️ Could you also share there evening routine?

[@peggy1046]

Great video thank you

[@CentsibleLivingWithMoneyMom]

Great video, but why do I feel so tired after watching it?

[@cathie-aussiegirl6547]

Would love to see your evening routine. I really enjoyed this.

[@zoea2812]

Great video x

[@vickirider1413]

Thanks

[@TinaJackson]

Awesome and Gus is amazing as well. Just a point, he is responding to "alright" and not "break"...just letting you know he will respond to the first word you are saying. You can try it and see if that's the case. Usually, it is easier to use just visual commands with dogs because you can't always "yell" at them if you're outside. That's just been my experience.

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Thanks for the tip! We usually use hand signals with our vocal commands, he does fairly well with both. Thanks!

[@claudiadelgado6000]

Great tips

[@ponceclan293]

Loved the vlog!

[@scaredofmice8658]

Like your routine I don’t do the work out but need to

[@casalearning775]

Great video, very helpful :)

[@crispdc4118]

It was a great video and I have subscribed :-) Please share your evening routine with us too!!

[@yuli3bb1]

Seattle? I live in Auburn 🖐👋

[@bonesita88]

This was incredibly inspirational and relatable! So many vloggers work from home so their morning routines are super casual, and not at all practical for someone with a more typical 8-5 job. Waking up at 5 sounds terrible to me. lol But I'm very much a night owl instead of a morning person. I'm curious what time you are in bed by?

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

I try to go to bed by 9:15pm or so... sometimes I am a little late but I try! =)

[@pamjod]

I love your videos and your planner. I would like to see how you do your planner more in detail. I have watched how some do theirs but they don't go into much detail and I get confused. Thanks!

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Hi pamjod, Here is my most recent planner set up video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3izlpyZqdFjoZI Let me know if you have any further questions! Thanks, Amy

[@hrh4773]

I would love to see your evening routine 😀

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Here is a link to my evening routine video! This was filmed a while ago so at some point I plan to do an updated video now that I have a baby and work from home! Thanks for watching! kzbin.info/www/bejne/kHrHnquEZc6Nnsk

[@juneingram669]

Just liked and subscribed

[@lindaromero9757]

I'm not one to comment on videos, but I immediately subscribed after finding and watching yours. I've had a hard time finding the easiest way to do the swish and swipe. Can you please tell what "soap" you keep in the brush holder? Thanks a bunch ! Oh, and I too would love to see your evening routine. My "visual" brain is ever so grateful! :)

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Hi Linda, I use lemon Pinesol most of the time in my toilet brush holder, I think you can use any cleaner you want though! I think since you are swishing and swiping daily it doesn't have to be any fancy cleaner, can be whatever you've got on hand! Thanks for watching!

[@lindaromero9757]

Thanks so much!! :D

[@CazSantiago]

I also keep cleaning solution in the brush bowl, usually the Method multipurpose cleaner. Doing this has made such a difference in whether or not the toilet gets swished! This one simple step gets me motivated to get the swishing and swiping done! It usually gets done right after I brush my teeth and wash my face. Hope this helps!

[@jennylhenry78]

It never even occured to me to keep solution in the cup part. I also just looked at it as the brush holder. Haha Well, something new to try!

[@VictoriaH88]

I usually get dressed after I do everything. I would stain my outfit if I get dressed before

[@vickirider1413]

Hey I want to know if on the days you have a long list of things to do. My question is do you do all of it on that day or you set the timer and do what you can and when the timer goes off you are done and then the next week you do something that you didn’t get to the previous week?

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Hi Vicki, Thanks for watching! It depends on the day! Especially now that I have a baby most of the time I just set my timer and get done what I can and accept that something is always better than nothing. Each week I just start with the tasks that need to be done the most (even if I also did them last week) and eventually everything on the list gets done! When I do have extra time though sometimes I will work a little longer to get everything done cause I love the satisfaction of getting everything checked off ;) I hope that makes sense!

[@belvadalidowich859]

I loved your video but I noticed you were looking off and not at the camera it was almost like being with a friend and her not looking at you while she talks. I think you might look more inviting if you look at the camera when you talk but then that is just my opinion. Others may not agree. But watch it yourself and see if you can understand what I'm saying. For your first vlog you did really good.

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Thanks for the tip! I noticed that too when I was editing and I will try to improve in the future.. I find it hard to look directly at the camera! =) ha ha

[@moonharp]

I agree, and also think you did a great job - that was my only distraction. I don't care about any of the little rough spots at all; it was a nice little video, and made it more clear to me that my flylady routines would be more beneficial to me if I had less clutter to work around. Thanks!

[@jennyfinnell7719]

great to see from wake up the whole morning. But when cleaning the toilet, it looked like the toilet brush did not get rinsed out but instead put back in the cleaning solution and back in the closet. Probably ok but surprised me.

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Thanks for watching! I rinse the brush and holder and replace the cleaning solution every few days, I hope that is an okay way to do it... it seems to work fine for me =)

[@teresitaromero4325]

Maybe you can store more of your dishes closer to the dishwasher. I saw you walking back and forth a bunch of time but never opened the cupboard above your dishwasher.

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Thanks for the feedback, I will have to think about possibly reorganizing! =)

[@jodie923]

Question, if you add up a weeks worth of time that u spend each day cleaning your toilet, does it add up to the time it takes you if you did it once a week?

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Hmm.. probably pretty close to the same amount of time. Maybe a little more time overall to do it daily but it is really nice to always have a bathroom!

[@lvlc5]

I'be been willing to try the vinegar/water spray in shower. How ofthen do u do it? Does it work? Have you noticed a difference? With soapscum, with mildew? I have a 1/2 and 1/2 version of it and I use it for desinfecting and mirrors... works like a charm!

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

I do feel like it cuts down on the shower grime. I dilute the vinegar water solution a little more because my shower is made out of a premolded plastic composite and I don't want to damage it with a super acidic leave on spray, if your shower is tile or glass I think you could use a stronger solution if you wanted to! I hope that makes sense! Thanks for watching!

[@CrystalChristianStore]

Where can I had the printables are at your planner?

[@dawntillery5804]

How do i make a journal like yours? I am still working on mine and i like yours a lot

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

My binder is a Filofax personal saffiano in aqua.

[@elsajansen8858]

Nice video and nice clothes (where are they from?) How late do you have to leave for work? And i'm curious how late you go to bed in the evening, because being up at 5 am can't be easy ;)

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Hi Elsa! Thanks! The skirt is from TJ Maxx, the shirt is from Target, and the sweater was a gift so I am not sure where it is from. I leave for work at about 7:40am. I try to start getting ready for bed around 9:00-9:15pm and I am usually in bed falling asleep by 9:30-9:45pm. And yes, even with my early bedtime 5 am always comes wayyy tooo early =)

[@carmenblanco1115]

Hello loved the video :) Can you tell me where you bought your skirt? is sooo cute. Thanks

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Hi Carmen! I think I got it at TJ Maxx about a year ago. Thank for watching! Amy PlansMeetPaper

[@lynprocopio2450]

looking at camera?

[@joaniey.3129]

Hi! I subscribed recently. I liked this vlog bc you showed how you wrote your morning routine in your planner & then you took us thru your actual routine. I would like to know where you bought the graph-like printables that you use to keep track of daily habits. ? Also, I purchased a journal and the MS sections, and bc I am a SAHM, I'm not sure what to label each section. What do you use each section for? Thanks in advance for any tips. 😊Joanie

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Hi Joanie, It is a printable I sell in my etsy shop, here is the link if you are interested! www.etsy.com/listing/486839953/printable-personal-habit-tracker-and?ref=shop_home_active_18 I am sorry but I am not sure what you mean about "MS Sections". If you explain further, I'd be happy to try and help! Thanks Amy PlansMeetPaper

[@joaniey.3129]

PlansMeetPaper thank you Amy for the kind response & the link for the printables. I'm so sorry, by MS, I meant the Martha Stewart divider tabs that you showed in your planner. I'm having trouble with what I can use each section for. I don't need a budget section. Do you have email? I can explain my situation so that you can better understand my question. Thanks 😊Joanie

[@joaniey.3129]

PlansMeetPaper Hi Amy! I just sent you a message thru your Etsy. I hope you get it! 😊Joanie

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Yeah... it is tough to get up sometimes, I just like to get things done in the morning though! I am a early bird =)

[@kellykjrneill1135]

I wish my husband would walk our dog in the mornings. I don’t have time with 4 kids and 3 daycare kids, but hubby refuses to do it 🤨

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Well that stinks! Maybe you can leave the kids with him and you can take a break to walk the dog! =)

[@cheritoms4040]

I left you a message

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Hi Cheri, I don't see your message on Etsy, so sorry! The size depends on what size binder you have. I use a personal size Filofax. Here is the link to the routine tracker: www.etsy.com/listing/486839953/printable-personal-habit-tracker-and?ref=shop_home_active_47 I also just use lined paper to write out my routines. Here is the notes paper bundle in my shop: www.etsy.com/listing/467089111/printable-personal-notes-paper-bundle?ref=shop_home_active_87 Let me know if you have any further questions! Thanks, Amy

[@tyrroo]

Thank you for the video, but the camera angle on the planner is HORRIBLE. It's like it's semi-upside-down, it's sooo hard to look at :(

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

I will try to make sure the camera is more level in the future. Thanks for the feedback =)

[@galeschmitty]

Can we see this routine with three kids thrown in the mix😂😣

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Hi Amanda! Yeah, I am sure everything will change when I have kids! This is just what is working for me in this season of life =)

[@galeschmitty]

Its a great routine, I want to try it. But i have to figure out how to make it work with three littles🙈😂

[@glendaruff125]

Nice routine but I couldn't read any of it.

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Sorry about that, I didn't realize how fast it would be, I will slow it down in the future! =)

[@jodieabbott7219]

You need to look in the camera not at your self

[@plansmeetpaper3663]

Thanks for the tip. I noticed that when I was editting too! I tried to improve on this when I filmed my evening routine last week! Thanks for watching! Amy PlansMeetPaper

[@emmag6255]

Well done, I thought that was great, couldn't tell it was your first one 🙂
