Just ideas, and I hope that I can make improvements on my life, but it won't be easy for me. I am one who like to stick with what I know. Me and adventure don't really go hand in hand, but why not take baby steps?
So here are some of my ideas:
- be more organized. My computer, my school work, my time, my car, my room...it pretty much goes on and on, but it is something when done right, I highly enjoy. I should do it more often.
- be more healthy. It is something Travis has been harping on me to do, but diet drinks are my weakness. I crave a diet DP, or coke. It is a problem. I not only want to limit my diet drink intake, but overall eat healthier. Cook more, pay attention to what I am putting in my body. Vegetables, fruit, dairy, protein, fiber they are new focuses on my life. I hope they stick around and replace the sugar, sugar, sugar, starch, sugar, sugar, carbs etc. Everything in moderation right?
- be more active. I frankly need to get out of my house. I am such a home-body, I could stay at home all day long and not get restless. I love the comfort and the predictability, but it would be nice to get out more often. Exercise, taking Milo to the dog park, and just visiting friends are among my ideas.
- be more relational...with God. It has been on my heart for a long time now. A relationship with God going both ways. For so long I have expected God to keep up our relationship to provide the connection and the "feelings". However, it is my turn to ensure those experiences, by reading, by praying, by being more intentional. It is time and I am ready. I hope.
These are not resolutions, but goals. I know I am not going to be perfect, but I am sure going to try to try. ha! I will do my best to make improvements. That is what life is about, right? Growing. Maturing. Learning. and Changing.

How is your daily reading coming along? Hope you are keeping up. If you fall behind read a little extra each day. I also had my sister in law read with me so we kept each other on track. We would read and then ask or share things we learned in the reading that day. Ask Trav to help you. I kept after him to read the year bible for several years. It helps to be accountable to someone. You can do and once you get started you will feel strange when you don't read, like a part of you is missing or something about your day doesn't seem right. I also found it helpful to read at the same time each day and don't let anything stop you from sticking to your time. My time 4:30 am. So I can be alone with God and no one will bother me. You will get it done just keep plugging along.
