I final...My 30 minutes are never 30 minutes either. I finally planted two tomato plants in my compost pit. Haven't done that for years; so things are looking up a bit for some kind of vegetables. I revised my panama post if you are still interested. Happy gardening!Yvonnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11506141901518297798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920411020784409759.post-5927799373674759472012-04-28T08:09:38.026-07:002012-04-28T08:09:38.026-07:00Jerry, this is a neat looking table. great for beh...Jerry, this is a neat looking table. great for behind the sofa, putting potted plants on it etc. <br /> I have a white wrought iron ( the real stuff) from the 30/40's .<br />Originally it had a long mirrored top. It was my aunts' and she used it as a Make-up table.. I still remember as a little girl seeing that table with all those brushes, bottles of perfume, oh I thought ... " to be so glamorous. <br /> I have the table for many years now ..mirror gone, but a long wood top which is sort of a white, distressed look. I have moved that heavy thing about 30 times.. even to California and back. <br />Love your 30 minute idea.. I start something and can't stop, then I'm totally exhausted.. . I'll try it 'your way' hugs BJBarbra Joanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08263982645593300365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920411020784409759.post-16444365241898397642012-04-26T03:36:44.849-07:002012-04-26T03:36:44.849-07:00I too am an all or nothing kind of person.

It never...Jerry, I appreciate this 30 minute idea! It never occurred to me I could just devote 30 minutes to something to get going on a project. I have always been an all or nothing kind of gal. But now that the aches and pains seem so up front and in the way..I will try out this concept. I have been overwhelmed by the gardening, chicken coop rebuild, art show entries, etc. So hopefully this will help. A goofy story for you..I was in a women's therapy group once. Of course our mutual therapist would moderate. We had women who were bi-polar, depressed, anxious..whatever. One woman mentioned that as a single mom she could never seem to get her house clean enough. Then she described doing one thing a day in her bathroom..ie..cleaning the tub, then the sink..you get the idea. I must have had a shocked look on my face..because the therapist said "what is wrong Kay?"<br />I replied" I never thought about not doing the whole bathroom at once!" To which everyone laughed and I realized something about myself that I had never known! No wonder I get overwhelmed by projects..I could not see that it was ok to break them down and work on them in stages!! I still suffer from that mentality..so this post is a good reminder.
