I remember FlyLady. I tried so hard. Shine your sink! I still hear her in the back of my mind sometimes. I can see why she would've been popular in fundamentalist homeschool circles. I wasn't in one when I first found her--not yet. Once I was introduced to the fundy homeschool community, I saw the red flags and was able to leave that community pretty quickly, but I know several who are still trapped.
I remember my mom being obsessed with the fly lady. I wasn’t aware that the shine your sink came from her, and a few other things you mentioned ring bells, some I even do today in my own home despite never reading fly lady myself.
I love the focus on applauding the small steps you were taking to become free, and acknowledging that it often takes multiple attempts before it sticks.
