delete the button code on SeveralThingsAtOnce

I want to delete the button code on SeveralThingsAtOnce without affecting the servo and LED code. I want to have an LED blink through one cycle throughout the entire loop, so it stops when the servos do since I have motor.detach function. How do I have the LED not block the servos (not delaying the servos) so they go on & off the same time? Here is my code: In this setup, the LED doesn't blink and just turns on & off when the servos do.

#include <Servo.h>
Servo motorL;
Servo motorR;
boolean blinkMe = true;
void setup()
{
  motorL.attach(4);
  motorR.attach(5);
  Serial.begin(9600);
}

void forward()
{
  motorR.write(93);
  motorL.write(80);
  delay(100);
  motorL.write(250);
  motorR.write(5);
}

void back()
{
  motorR.write(93);
  motorL.write(80);
  delay(100);
  motorL.write(5);
  motorR.write(250);
}

void right()
{
  motorL.write(80);
  motorR.write(93);
  delay(100);
  motorL.write(5);
  motorR.write(93);
}

void left()
{
  motorL.write(80);
  motorR.write(93);
  delay(100);
  motorL.write(80);
  motorR.write(250);
}

void stop()
{
  motorL.write(80);
  motorR.write(93);
  delay(100);
}

void LED() {
  pinMode(13, OUTPUT);
}

void loop () {
  if (blinkMe == true) {    
    LED();
    digitalWrite(13, HIGH);
  }
  forward();
  delay(500);
  right();
  delay(500);
  forward();
  delay(500);
  back();
  delay(1000);
  left();
  delay(500);
  motorL.detach();     //stops Left SERVO
  motorR.detach();    //stops Right SERVO

 if (blinkMe == true){        // stops LED 
    digitalWrite(13, LOW);
    }
    blinkMe=false;
}

If you're trying to do several things at once, you can't use delay().

You need to store the list of commands (forward for 1 second, pause for 0.5 second...) in an array. Probably two arrays, to keep the actions and times separated. Then your main loop runs thousands of times per second, checking if it's time to do anything: is it time to turn the LED on? is it time to move to the next action in the list?

What's an array?
