It's a new year, and I am taking this opportunity to create new habits that will make an impact on the success and growth of our farm. With each year, I learn A LOT, and I tell myself I will write it down and make sure I remember, so I can do it better next year. But in the middle of summer, sitting down to write something down is the last thing I feel I have time for, as I pull weeds or fix irrigation in the light of my headlamp at 10 pm. How is there not enough time for it all in the longest days in the year?
Which brings me to my next new habit, which is to be organized and more efficient. Place tools in one place so I am not walking back and forth all day. Make daily, weekly, and monthly to-do lists, and list it by time for the daily ones. Have a mental picture of how the entire day will play out. Move on to the next task when the time is up! And keep a notebook outside with me to record everything.
This blog will be the journal that helps keep me accountable. Even if it is just a little rambling from something on my mind, like today (boring, I know sorry!) the goings-on of the farm will be here. As I learn, I will write. And as I do, I will write as well.
Signing off now.. I have seeds to order!
