Goals for December 2020

I find that if I have a plan, goals for the month my depression and anxiety are better. It helps me to keep busy and not sit and veg so much, so here they are. 

1. I want to up my service hours.

2. Scrapbook and post 1 project a week. To this blog and to Megan and my mom. 

3. Get to London Drugs and make a photo book of Disney 2015. I was going to scrapbook one but I realize now that the stress of thinking about it has made me procrastinate and it's time to just get it made into a book so we can enjoy the memories. Now, depending on finances I may do this this month or in January but it will get done. 

4. I want to continue progressing with my physio. Walking without crutches is the goal. 

5. I have lost 30lbs since the accident. I would like to loose a little more. So I will continue to eat right, and workout the best I am able. 

Here is to a good month.

 It's December 2nd. What a year 2020 has been. First it was and still is Covid. Isolation!! Then the car accident. The shattered ankle, the operation, hospital stay, the healing process, the pain, the learning to walk again. All of this sucked. But I have to admit, there were good things too. Zoom being one of them. The ability to see family, friends and to still have our meeting and do service groups. The Governing Body through Jehovah has taken such good care of us. I have been throwing my anxiety on Jehovah. What would I do without him. I would be a ball of stress and a complete mess. 

Family time has been a good thing as well. Although we can see to much of each other sometimes and need to go to our own corners for some me time. We have been enjoying crafts. Some new and some old and tried and loved. And of course binge watching some new shows. 

I wonder what the new year will bring. I know that whatever happens that Jehovah is in control. I can have trust in him. But it's still a wonder if the Covid will get sorted out, if the world will get crazier or if it will quiet down and not be so nuts for awhile. We will see. 

We are alive, we have shelter, food, each other and our faith. 

Word for the year. Enough!

ENOUGH

My word for the year is enough. Why. Because I always compare myself to others. Whatever I do whether it's being a mom, wife, crafter, you name it. It's never good enough, because I feel like others do it better.
This year I'm going to try my best to silence those thoughts. Look at what I do with consideration and honestly instead of a mixed up thinking process that I have built for myself.  Enough.!

Recycling.

The girls have been collecting bottles for their Disneyland Trip. They will cash them in by the beginning of February. They are learning about recycling, math and planning. Don't worry. We are planning on recycling the white plastic bags as well.
