I decided I had better practice what I say and try this plan out.  It is taking the Gardening Zones and incorporating these routines with Flylady. Many of us love to be outdoors this time of year and one of our fears is will I be able to do Flylady routines and my gardening?  I believe you can and it begins with babysteps.  I am going to give it a try and invite you on my journey to unfamiliar territory.  I have been flying for quite some time.  This will be the first year to add a vegetable garden.


Zone 1  Entrance to House
So I asked myself, “What can I do that will make me feel better about my entrance?”  The decision was made.  I would take the Christmas lights that I stapled on the house down.  Did you hear me right?  Yes, Christmas lights.  The weather has just not been that great and what ever yard work I have done this season has been picking up twigs and branches.  Yesterday I burned a pile of branches.  It seemed to be more fun to do than the Christmas lights.  And yesterday was perfect conditions to burn.


Today started off very windy and gloomy.  Around 4pm the sun decided to try to shine.  I told myself I can at least do 15 minutes outside.  After all, it is just 15 minutes.  It led to 3 – 15 minute sessions.  I accomplished what I set out to do and also visit with my aunt who was outside by the church.  I got some vitamin D, fresh air, conversation and 45 minutes of loving movement that I will be posting on Flylady Website.


Here are some pictures of my task I set out to do and accomplished.

As you can see there is still work to be done.  15 minute Boogies work for me so I will continue to do them.  The task doesn’t give you this overwhelming feeling of discouragement and I am all for ways to make my day fun! Try a 15 minute boogie and see what you get done.  You may just surprise yourself and you can say, “Go Me!”
Keep Flying!
