NOVEMBER'S HEALTHY HABITS: Drink enough water/exercise/eat healthfully/drink kombucha
WORD for 2017: Stewardship
And here is how October went:
* Work on Colossians Bible study in my quiet time -- done!
* Memorize at least 4 Bible verses and review some older ones -- done!

* Continue new study for Sunday School -- A Woman Who Reflects the Heart of Jesus
-- done!
* Exercise or walk at least 20 times -- done!
* Get to bed by 9:30 pm each night-- done!
* Limit sugar and red meat -- had a little red meat on our getaway. Otherwise, limiting that is going very well. Sugar is still a work in progress, but there is progress.
* Drink enough water each day -- not doing so well with this.
* Drink kombucha each day -- or this, though I will say we took a big jug of it up north with us and drank over half of it.

* Post in this blog most weekdays if possible -- did fairly well with this

* Continue upholding my husband as he continues on with our church's pastoral search -- done!
Needless to say, I am hoping for a productive and grateful November!
Oh you’ve found some bittersweet...must go looking. Your “goals” posts always impress me! I am glad that you are getting so much accomplished and often wish that I were doing half as much.
ReplyDeleteAnd now I see you have found some bittersweet too and put it on the graves ... lovely idea. I should do the same, as my mother loved bittersweet.
DeleteI really don't feel as if I am accomplishing much. Some days it feels as if I'm walking (or trying to walk) through quicksand. I'm quite sure you are accomplishing at least as much as I am, if not more.
