It’s All About The Tools You Use!

I am sitting here at my computer checking messages and the thought “It’s all about the tools you use.”  Currently I am gardening and enjoying it so much.  Same goes for Flylady.  She gives you the tools and it is up to you to understand tools are important.

Some tools are invisible.  These are the types that others will share what has worked for them.  Like always going to bed with a shiny sink.  There are so many tools and we just can’t learn how to use them overnight.  We just need to know they are there waiting for us when we are ready.

I have been wanting to do some landscaping for years.  I spent 5 years sick that I couldn’t even go outside.  Now some of my issues have been solved one finding out I have Hypothyroidism.  Simple solution to this.  Take medication and it has worked.  I can now get out of bed and be more consistent than I ever have been in my life.

After I made the decision that it was this year I was finally going to transplant all the flowers I had out in back.  I had everything lined up.   I have a mini tiller and it is great.  Problem is that it quit working properly and I had to take it in to get fixed.  It still isn’t done yet.  But that didn’t stop me.  I saw some of my mom’s tools for gardening and asked her how she liked them.  Well, these were on her top list, especially the garden knife.  So many applications for it.  The potato fork and the cultivator both helped out so much.  I am so proud of myself that I looked into alternatives to landscape rather than waiting for my mini tiller to be done.  Plus I got some exercise!

Look for tools that will help you.  Be brave and ask someone that uses a tool how they like it.  They are the best reviewers.  I am glad I kept my options open.  I am so looking forward to mid summer with everything in bloom.

Keep your eyes open to all .  There are Possibilities Everywhere!

Keep FLYing and Gardening!
