I am no longer a "resolution" gal! Nope, not me! I'm now a "goals and plans" gal. So for 2009 I'm taking measurable steps towards my goals/plan:
1. Make a weekly menu
2. Make sure I only buy what we are going to eat that week
3. Make sure my children and I exercise 5 days a week..even if all we do dance like silly people infront of the tv
4. Bake our junk instead of buying it...this way I can inconspicuously place fruit and veggies into our goodies
5. No more drive-thru's(not even for coffee)*on a side note: if family and/or friends want to take us then its ok ;)
Merry Christmas!

Curlers,Chocolate and Tears
What a day! It started off very nicely, then over a period of minutes..it started to unfold. Let's see, first our dryer stopped working, as in it won't start, then the doctor called and told my hubby that he has high cholestral, then I was able to pay some bills and realized that we have more month than money.
I took my children to place a snowman on my daughter, Hannah Grace's, grave...then I spent the next few hours crying on and off...while praising the Lord for my children that are alive, and for making a place in Heaven with Him for our little girl.
While I was crying and praising, I helped my 12 yr old DD make chocolate Buckeye Candy for her friends and teachers :)Then we sat down together so I could curl her hair and we started talking about Caylee A. and how could her mother do such a thing..then we both started crying. This opened up the door for me to talk to her about what the Bible says about sin, and how sin hurts many people not just the sinner.
So, all in all, it turned out to be a blessed day anyways!
Remember, life live by moments and not minutes!
