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!

TIME: March 16th-22nd

Mar. 16th: Did not make my goal tonight. 1 AM. But, we thought Dave was leaving for the airport at 5 am-due to the snow. Pilot
Turns out his flight was cancelled.
I can't go to bed while he's packing though. Sweet guy TAKES OVER the whole room!!


Mar. 17th: Did not do too well today. Did not get to bed......also, didn't plan the schedule at all. Having too much fun w/ my sister & her hubby-who are here house hunting (& meeting Little Boy) YEAH!!!!!


Mar. 18th: Same today-except that we lived in the car, too, basically because I still am not organized w/ 3 kiddos!

Mar. 19th: Was up way too late.........ended up w/ other company besides my sis & brother in law.....that didn't leave until 11:45. We had a GREAT time, though.

Mar. 20th: Up too late again.....

Mar.21st: Trying to get Little Man on a schedule at night is rather hard. He is very unpredictable.

Mar. 22nd: He fought me going to bed, meaning that I did not make it to sleep until after 11pm.

FOOD: Feb. 17-23rd

Feb. 17th: Started marking off boxes again-but need to go back & re-think today's points.

Feb. 18th: Didn't keep too close track today-did mark off boxes, though.

Feb. 19th: Completely forgot about marking boxes. Duh





MONEY: Feb. 17-23rd

Feb. 17th: Bought a few things for our trip, & Ny Quil-again-yes I have another cold. But, PTL, it isn't too bad.

Feb. 18th: Didn't buy anything.

Feb. 19th: Boy, did I ever make up for yesterday. TONS of money on trip supplies & baby supplies! I can't even post the number-it scares me! Scared 1











TIME: Feb. 17-23rd

Feb. 17th: Lights out at 10:02! Much better than I have been doing. After all the running around to straighten out our Immigration mess, I would stay up LATE, to just have some down time. I saw how quickly & easily I drop back into old habits. Pouty

Feb. 18th: 11:30-just trying to start on the packing.

Feb. 19th: 11:30-w/ no good excuse. Ana was up until 9, then I was working on her latch-hook project for her-THEN, finally, sat down to eat myself.
