Happy 2nd day of Autumn! Sorry, I was too busy yesterday to write a post. I helped out in Junior church yesterday and had a blast being involved in the children's ministry again. I led singing, let myself be crazy to amuse the children, and frankly, wore myself out. ;) I did however, wear an adorable, fall inspired outfit to celebrate (that I never got a picture of....again....)
Today is Mark's first day of school, and tonight will be my first Spanish lesson. I can't wait! I've been wanting to learn Spanish for a long time, we have so many Spanish speaking people coming into our area, and I'd love to be a help and an encouragement to them by speaking to them in their native tongue.
Well, as usual, I got more excited about the first day of Autumn than January 1st. I do still make resolutions for the official New Year, but my Autumn school year resolutions always mean more to me. So would you like to see my resolutions for this school year? (I did leave a few out that were personal, but this is most of my resolutions.)
1.Read my Bible every day without fail.
2. Exercise (in some form) every day. Whether it be bike riding, walking, doing an exercise routine, or playing catch with Mark.
3. Keep up with the grading for Mark's school, and keep all his papers prepared ahead of time. Plan fun projects to make school exciting and out of the ordinary.
4. Start writing again. Work on the stories I've started.
5. Write down the recipes I've learned how to cook in the recipe binder my Mawmaw gave me. (About three years ago....ahem.)
6. Make a home recipe book. (homemade laundry detergent, face mask, teeth whitener, etc.)
7. Figure out if I'm going to have a jewelry sale or not. And if I do, prepare for it.
8. Make up a Christmas season photography promotional.
9. Learn Spanish.
10. Edit camp pictures (that I've been putting off....oops!)
11. BLOG! BLOG! BLOG!
12. Call friends more.
13. Write letters.
14.Try new home recipes.
15. Research essential oils and home remedies, and record what I find and learn.
16. Do Bible College.
Wow, that sure is a lot. I definitely need to make a schedule to try to fit everything in. I don't want to overwhelm myself, because I do also have my family and the ministry to consider. I'll have to get up earlier and use my time wisely. But I'm up for the challenge.
Do you make resolutions for the school year?
Gotta love #11! :) What Bible College are you looking to do? Next year I'm hoping to "go" to the School of Biblical Evangelism. Have you heard of it?
ReplyDeleteI love writing letters! Your resolutions are very cool! I guess some of mine would be to-
1. Wear more skirts
2. Start making baskets of "fun things" to give away at Christmastime
3. Read my Bible everyday
4. Get good grades in school
5. Try to do a hundred crunches every day (Not even close to this. :D)
6. Dress cute-r.
Your blog is such an inspiration to me- have I mentioned that? I love seeing the outfits you put together and why you like them! Especially your pins- very cool!
Have a happy second day of autumn!

My resolutions are very similar to yours!
ReplyDelete1. Read my Bible every day without fail--and not rush through it for lack of time.
2. Continue exercising faithfully
3. Eat healthy
4. Make homemade remedies
5. BLOG!!
And others that I can't think of right now. =) Loved this post! =)
I've been coming up with a very similar mental list...a lot of these things are things I need to get better at doing, especially Bible reading/devotion time, and exercising...and blogging, too! God's blessings on keeping your resolutions!(:
