3 in 30: April {week 2}


April's goals...
1. Write and mail someone a letter/card each week.
2. Make a new recipe at least once a week.
3. Part 2 of Proverbs 31...verses 17 & 27
"She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks...She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness."

*Card written, stamped, and in the "outgoing" box for the post office!!!  
(I'm even surprised at this one...I have several cards around the house for birthdays and holidays that were purchased with great intentions that never get sent).
*New recipe made (literally made up by little ol' me).  I was inspired by an ice cream pie I had at Sam and Rosco's italian restaurant in Douglasville.  I made my own recipe for what I call "Turtle Pie" and it turned out delicious.  I'm thinking that I'll switch things up again one day and make it a "S'more Pie" next time.

*Working vigorously to change my attitude about working vigorously. :)  What I mean by that is that, for me, it's not just doing a task, but it's more about owning the task and having a good attitude about having to do the task.  It's also about trying not to procrastinate.  (Remember how my name was found beside "night owl" in the dictionary, well, my name's often found beside this word as well). :)  I like working on this goal, because, it's bringing scripture to my mind often during my days when I am deciding on which I should do first.  I'd give myself about a 5 out of 10 on this goal.  Always room for improvement in this department.
Have a blessed weekend and know week 3 is just ahead!

  2. What a great way to work on your goals! Glad to see I am not the only face shining in the "Night Owl Procrastinator" yearbook{{{grin}}} It is HARD work just changing old habits, I give you an "A" for NOT giving up/in! I'm with ya on the attitude issue...I try to remember to have a happy heart and to realize it IS for the Lord. Some days are easy peasy....and some AIN"T!!
    Happy Friday :)

#TransformationTuesday

"But God has surely listened and has heard my prayer."  Psalm 66:19 As one who has struggled with weight all of my life, seeing the ups and downs in jean sizes became my reality.  I would lose some pounds only to face a stressor in life and see them return and bring friends along for the ride.  I spent years believing lies, yet secretly hoping for a better reality.  Lies that I am not capable of overcoming my sweet tooth and that I am just not the workout type, topped the list.  I have never really lacked self esteem or self confidence; I know who I am.  However, I know from personal experience, others define me by what they first see.  Having been a plus-size lady for years, I was treated differently, intentionally or not, when I dropped pounds. My health journey to where I am today began back in 2010. It is amazing that things do not happen accidentally, even if they seem to in the beginning. Actually, as the pieces of my story have come together, this story begins w

anchored

My word for 2018.  Anchored. To keep from drifting. Representative of stability and strength. Connected. Held.  Grounded.  Positioned.  Fixed. Movable. Small, yet, essential part of a bigger entity. It is a standard by which to live; a goal for which to strive. Anchored.
