I haven’t posted in a while… I honestly was frozen with a bit of holiday overwhelm! Also, I really wanted to focus on enjoying the season with my family. Since I’m still a relatively new blogger, I haven’t found my rhythm yet, and so, each entry I write gets posted immediately. I don’t schedule my posts…. yet. I’m hoping I will get there in 2019! I have lots of ideas of things to write about, I just need to get organized!
Our Christmas was good and busy. I’d love to say we all stayed healthy, but I, unfortunately, got hit with a stomach bug as did my middle son, and my husband had a bout of conjunctivitis in his eye. Fun times! Thankfully that all happened between Christmas and New Year’s. So we are starting 2019 on a good foot!
Many years ago, for one particular new year, I made tons of goals. I had about 8 different categories, with many goals in each category. Over-zealous maybe!?! I was good for about a week, but that’s about all I could sustain.
I don’t usually set New Year’s goals anymore, or if I do they are very mild goals, and nothing extreme. I DO think goal-setting is a great practice and important. I just don’t do it at New Years.
HOWEVER, I do have one goal or THEME for myself this year, and that is that I would know and understand God’s love for me in a greater way. And that my family would too! Obviously, not super measurable, but I’m ok with that.
I hope your year is off to a great start! We don’t NEED a new year for new beginnings BUT a new year is just one of those times that automatically warrants it. Blessings to you in 2019!
