Hey everybody
…
Never have time for exercise? Never have time to tidy the garage/clear the attic/weed the flowerbeds/wash the car…? And…are you (like me) a hopeless procrastinator?
Double whammy? I’ll explain:
Sure; sometimes it is hard to squeeze things into our busy schedules. Particularly those unpleasant chores that seem to loom over us for weeks. So… wouldn’t it be a bit easier if we were to do a little combining? I mean… let’s get out of the rut and kill two birds with one stone.
Why not join me in a Month of May “CHORES AND EXERCISE - Double Whammy Challenge”? We can encourage and support each other as we get a good job(s) done and, at the same time, chalk it up as our Atkins exercise, or part of it. Let’s go for that “doubly virtuous” buzz!
Lots of chores are real exercise. If it gets you moving/panting/sweating/hopping, then it counts. Boy does it count! So, let’s go ahead and count it. As long as we actually do it, that is. No more procrastination!
We can get those horrid “pending jobs” done, and get moving, while having fun encouraging each other along the way. All in the name of weight loss and better health. Exercise is exercise…however it’s done!
Never exercised before? Afraid to start? Well, use this challenge as your very first step towards a regular -or more traditional- exercise workout. Or, if you’re already up there on the exercise wagon, count your chores as a “bonus” extra to your usual routine. It’s all good… for everyone!
All you need to do is:
- Commit here to getting a chore(s) done… one that involves movement… in a reasonable time frame of your choice, during the month of May… i.e. as fast as you think you can do it, or better still, just a tiny bit faster.
- Report your progress here every so often.
- Report mission accomplished.
- Enjoy the accolades and the “Phew!” of a dreaded job well done, as well as getting to feel rightly virtuous for having exercised too!
- On completion, choose one of the fun awards for your siggy that jimmie48 has so kindly made, especially for this challenge (Thank you Jimmie!).
Easy peasy! We can chat, grouse, commiserate, encourage and chivvy each other all along the road! What say you all?
Any takers?

Now is the time to move your “Good Intentions” from In Box to Out Box… in a real double whammy!

Do you have a time frame for your closets? If you think it'll take the whole month, that's ok... and if you do it in the time specified, you get Jimmie's award!
. I wonder why it's so hard?
