Joy - DJ'ya Know it's June
Posted: June 2nd, 2017, 7:07 am
Hi all,
As it's somewhat early (this morning, this month) and I wasn't planning to do this, I haven't been musing on many (any) wise words with which to encourage you on your YTST journey. Also I'm feeling green.
So, below, here's some recycling. Gotta say - we ROCK as a board
FS101
Here's YramNos in 2016 on MF
My knee's a bit duff 2
I want to get started! It’s ages since I posted on this board and as I have distinctively duff knees and FS101 seems reluctant to expose her knees I’m going to get started anyway.
1 Actually my main goal this month has to do with my knees. I’m disabled so there is no way that I could do the recommended 10,000 steps daily but my average step count for May was only 1300 so I want the average for June to be over 2000.
2 Just had the bathroom , sitting room and hall redecorated so I want to get those three rooms back to order and thoroughly decluttered.
3 List 20 items on EBay. This is not unconnected with item 2 above.
4 Get started on making my Christmas cards. Sorry about that.

June: Preparing for launch off
Rocket launches often seem like the start of the journey, the beginning. We fire up our rockets, loosen the bolts holding us in place and launch off with the mission.
But the launch itself - just like any launch - has involved much hard work for many people. The astronuts may get the glory, but there are numerous people who have been involved, from rocket scientists who draw up the plans, to the technicians who put it together. They are all preparing for launch off.
Maybe we are near the finish line, with the launch of the final product close by. June could be the time to finish everything off, ready to launch it into our homes or the world..
Perhaps we are in the middle of our life projects. The designs drawn up, the final launch a long way off, but right now is time to put the bits together, to follow the plans.
Many things get launched - rockets, boats, products, books - so maybe our next launch is quite different from the sound and fury of a rocket launch.
June is the start of summer, so lots of people are preparing for their holidays and to launch off on a plane. But for others, it is mid-exam season: revising hard and doing their best in the exams will allow them to launch off in their later plans.
And the final type of preparation: to clear up the loose ends of the old project. Some types of launch need a clear space to leave from. The detritus of the past use need to be cleared away so the new can start. The tidying up, the discarding, the final parts of the old. Clearing these up is another way of preparing for launch of something new later.
Whatever our plans, whatever our goals, there are things we can be doing in June. Lets get on and do them!

Juno where you're going to?
Where you're going to?
Do you like the things
That life is showing you?
Where are you going to?
Do you know?
So, a terrible pun, and no alternative, wins me a thread to start, by default. But actually, maybe it's quite apposite. Do you know where you're going to? What's in the future, the pipeline, if you think you know, what needs sorting out, to help you get there?
So, this is the June thread. Nearly halfway!
Me? I need to book a family holiday. Had some excellent news yesterday that means the future is clearer, and better.
As usual for me, I've got oodles and oodles of scout stuff to sort out.
