My husband has been sick for two days! I would rather be sick then have him be sick, he is a grouch!! Needless to say I am ringing in the new year alone (well just me and my computer) while my kiddos are off at a party for the youth of our church and the hubby is snoring away! I am glad he is resting though here's hoping he feels much better tomorrow!
Can you tell returning to school is on my mind?? I've enjoyed my break so much and perhaps have spent a little too much time snuggled under the blankets doing nothing!! Now it is quickly coming to a close and I haven't gotten much done! The agenda for the rest of the week - clean, organize, and lesson plan!!
My OLW is an extension of last years goal. Last year I choose "Let go" and I feel like it made a difference to remember throughout the year and challenge myself through some difficult times to just let the little things go! This year I want to take the next step and lead the life God intends for me rather than just do what I want to do! I want to take those little things to him and find his direction for me each day. I showed off the new journal my brother got me for Christmas (he didn't even know my word!) and I said I was working on a printable, and here it is........
I loved the Blue/White but decided to make a couple more in my favorite colors, I love them all so much I'm not sure which one I'll use myself!! If you want them just click on any of them to get the pdf!Hope your all having a wonderful start to your New Year!!
I look forward to sharing more with you soon!
I need to start thinking about going back to school, too, but I don't want to! :(

Very encouraging and challenging! I want to be more consistent in reading the Bible each morning and journaling my prayers as well.
ReplyDeleteI hear ya about getting my house organized - we spent the last week visiting family in Canada, and returned to wrapping paper still sprawled all over the living room floor :) ahh the joys of returning to normalcy.

My boyfriend has been sick since Friday night. He is also a big grouch when he is sick! I am thankful however that he is starting to feel better! Here is hoping that your hubby begins feeling better soon too!
ReplyDeleteI really like your word - sometimes it's hard to remember to wait and listen afterward though (at least for me). I'm your newest follower. :)
