My Idea For This Blog

To set goals for myself that others can see & encourage me along the way.

Ok.....new for 2009-

I have decided that it is too hard for me in my life right now the way it was set up for last year.

The Lord has laid it on my heart that I must choose to ACT loving.......& part of that is being moderate in my choices.

So each day, I will record how I chose moderation, motivated by my love for God or my love for others. Also, I will choose loving actions & (mostly, I need to demostrate it in the area of MODERATION) because of God's love for me!

Thank-you to each & every one of you who will support & pray for me in this endeavor!

My Idea for this Blog

To set goals for myself that others can see & encourage me along the way. There are three resources the Lord has given me I am concentrating on in 2008-

TIME, MONEY & FOOD

For January of 2008, these are the goals I have set:

1. With my time, I want to have “lights out” for myself between 8:30 & 9:30 every night.
2. With my money, I will NOT go to the store with out a list. I will stick to it EXACTLY unless I know I forgot something we need. (ie Toilet Paper, Toiletries, or Cleaning Supplies, Milk etc.)
3. With my food, I will mark off boxes on the WW program.


In each of these areas, every morning, I will record my progress from the previous day.


Also, in each of these areas, there needs to be some allowances for LIFE & I am aware of that. But I know what a reasonable excuse is. So do you. If you see me trying to make UNREASONABLE excuses, will you please call me on them?


Thank-you to each & every one of you who will support me in this endeavor!

Wow, 8:30 is early! You must be an early riser.

I really like your idea about disciplining yourself in these areas though, and I'm working on some things myself. It never hurts to have others encouraging you along the way.
