Monday, What are we going to knock out?

          So if you are like me your town is in somewhat of a lock down.  Schools are closed and church and public gatherings are discouraged.  We all get to stay home and either work or deal with our families and our own four walls.  For some this is great, for others not so much.  But I think we should all take some time and we will all have more fun if we try and knock something out every day. 

     What do you have that you need to finish?  What do you have that you want to spring clean?  What are you behind on?  What is something you have wanted to do for a long time but just never got the chance to do it?

     Let's start a challenge.  We are going to knock something out today.  Or we are going to start to knock something out. (it cannot be your husband)

We need to establish some rules.  You can adjust these to your abilities.  As you all know Kim's abilities are to eat too many donuts and watch Netflix.  I am an able person in these two skills.

Okay:

1. We pick a project and take a picture of said project.

  This can be an area of your home that you want cleaned. Maybe, a project you started and never finished. I guess what I am saying is pick something just for today, no matter how minor and take a picture.  Then as you can finish that take a picture.  Post both pictures and tell us what you did.  If you can't finish tell us how far you got on your adventure. If you don't have a camera just tell us about it.  We would love to know.

  Don't make yourself crazy (that is my job)  just pick something and do it.  Then report.  Let's see who can get something, anything done.

We could all sit around and feel sorry for ourselves and count our toilet paper rolls, or we can be productive.

2. Do something today that brings you happiness.  What is something you never get to do that you want to do?  This can be read for an hour, play the radio, call a friend, write a note, take a nap, bake a treat.  Do something that brings you joy and report back. Do something with those kids that are home with you that you have never done before.

3. Do something for others.

You don't have to leave your home, you can serve within your home, or figure out a way to cheer someone via the internet or the phone.  If you do want to venture out and dare, find a way to show kindness and service to someone.  Return and report.

So now you have three things to complete.  You can do one or all, but let's do something.

I am going to get my shop organized and do a great deal of sewing today.

I am going to call my Sissie because I miss her

I am going to take a meal into a family that just had a new baby.

Okay you know the rules and adapt as needed.  On your mark get set go!

Have a great and productive day staying positive while you are in the negative.

Kim
