Friday 5 minute challenge

Blue Savannah · 02-06-2009, 09:00 AM

When you see this thread, set your timer for five minutes and go do something in your home. Dishes, picking up toys, whatever.

Come back and post here what you did.

Five minutes at a time can make a big difference.

I *making* myself do this today. I have absolutely NO fuzzy feelings about it...in fact, I'm coming kicking and screaming.

But I'm here.

That counts for something, right?

MamaPepper · 02-06-2009, 10:29 AM
