Thoughts, Ponders, and Vegetables- Day 4

I’m on day 3 of walking, got in 30 mins today. I would love to say it’s getting easier and that my body is feeling so much better. But I’m honest and blunt. My body is more exhausted than when I started at the beginning of the week and  I’m forcing myself to get dressed each morning and start the journey. Overall mentally I think it’s helping, not on some spiritual level. But simply because I know I am attempting to do something to reach one of my goals. 

I’m a list checker, so to be able to check the daily walk off each day gives me a feeling of accomplishment. Yes I’m pretty easily amused. Lol

I’m halfway through my flower bed extension project. Still need to pull the weeds from the other half and get flowers for the whole thing. I did plant my mini lemon tree in the corner and pruned up a rose bush that is still remaining from my grandma’s days here at the house. I also got hubs to agree to helping me prep and plant a fall garden. We are going to rent a tiller this weekend to turn the dirt up. After that I will maintain it by hand tools. 

My planting list is: beans, broccoli, chard, collard greens, corn, cucumbers, okra, peppers, peas, strawberries, and tomatoes. This is for the August/September months and come closer to October/November I will add in some winter vegetables. 

Overall this will help us to eat healthier because it gives me some inspiration rather than going to the grocery store and looking at the expensive produce prices. 

We also had a couple of loopholes with our finances that is going to get us caught up and eliminate some of our current debt. So while I was doubting the possibilities, it does look as if I can work towards each of my main 3 goals consecutively.

That’s all today’s ponders, now I’m off to drink water and check off things on the to do list.
