It gets me motivated! <br />I have done something different this year as opposed to resolutions- my word of the year. This year it is "intentional" (I got this idea from another blogger). So many times I find the day, week, month, etc has flown by and I have not accomplished important things (time spent alone with God, building relationships, prayer, etc). I need to stop myself during the day and really take a look at what I am doing. Is it intentional? Is it what God's will is for me? Loved your pictures of your sweet family. Glad you made some wonderful holiday memories.

It's easier than the old method my husband & I were using and perfect for keeping up with every penny that comes in and goes out. It's easy to download & use. You will need Excel or a program that will open it.

New year and new resolve to save more, make do, continue working toward getting out of debt. With the Lord's help, we will make progress. My focus these past couple of weeks (and for the next two weeks) is to eat out of the freezer and pantry with little to no grocery shopping other than milk, bread, and some fresh fruits & veggies that will be on sale. Happy new year to you and your family!

Instead I ended up with a nasty virus. Was sick all week and have to go to the clinic tomorrow for sinus infection. But I did get two pair of jeans patched and length added to one of them. When first sick, I decided to hand stitch 2 patches on one pair of jeans. That was it for this week after the New Year. Will have to start a new list in a few days after healing some.<br />Check out my blog on the patches if you are interested.<br />http://www.nanasknoll.blogspot.com/nanasknollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14139961128588102280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5609957991100287914.post-16402504683617178312014-01-05T18:40:53.348-08:002014-01-05T18:40:53.348-08:00Can you Post the homeade soap recipe you used?

Every year I set goals and at the end of each year I can see where I need to do things better. My overall goal is to improve things in ordering my days in the God intended way. It is a struggle for me but I keep trying. Through the grace of God I hope to get there and I'm sure you will get there with your desire to order your days also.
