I am not really one for making New Year's resolutions (actually don't think I ever have very seriously made any!) however I have thought of some new things I would like to try this year and also some things I just want to do better in! So maybe if I post them on here I will think about them more! That would be ideal eh?!=) K here goes!!
#1. I want to have more patience with the people around me..
#2. Being contented with what I have can be a struggle to me.. I wonder why that is when I have so very, very much to be thankful for?! This year I want to focus more on my blessings and learn to be more content!
#3. I want to give my worries and fears to God and not let them control me..
#4. We have moved to a wonderful congregation that has reached out to us and welcomed us warmly! I want to do my part to reach out to them and be hospitable..
There are many more things I could put, however these are the main things I have been thinking about!
Now for the more material things of this life!
#5. Since we have been married I have mostly bought my bread, buns, etc ... (I know ... there goes being a virtuous wife!!) however I want to start baking mostly my own! I actually am quite enthused about it! Thanks to
The Pioneer Woman I actually enjoy making cinnamon rolls! In my opinion these are the best cinnamon rolls there are!=) Am enthused about trying some different breads etc too!
#6. I always envy these people that plan there menus for the week! =) I know it is probably normal for most of you!! I always think it would be nice, however, I never know for sure where to start ... So .. I am going to try it some this year! Maybe if I get it together enough I will post it on here! If any of you have simple, tasty recipes you like I would be glad to know about them as I am always on the look out for good recipes!!
#7. One more thing! I am trying to organize myself more cuz it does not come natural to me.. I have a folder I am going to do a bit of scrapbooking on an then I found some real neat calender layout pages that have a place to write your weekly menu down and a place to keep track of the water I drink! So will print those off and put in my folder! For the last year or more I have kind of had a weekly schedule with different things (such as cleaning, baking, etc.) for certain days and that really helps me! So I am going to try and keep on with that and hopefully get a little more efficient with it! I am looking forward to having it all in one place now! Once I get my folder scrapbooked.. =)
So now you know some thing I will be working at this year! Would love to hear what you all are trying different this year!

sounds like you have great ideas!get organized while you can but don't despair if it doesn't all go perfect!love you!Mom
ReplyDeleteYou know me well, Mom and how I like to try and be organized but somehow I end up not nearly always reaching my goals.. love you!
DeleteSounds ambitious! My tendency would be to kick myself if I didn't get it all done in January... so ya, be good to yourself.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouragement!=) I do tend to set high goals for myself so I guess if I do good on at least half I should be glad!!
