A Quick Update {February 6, 2010}

February 6, 2010 by Dana

So I haven’t written anything in a while and I have sort of fallen off the wagon as far as my resolutions have gone.  But I can always pick up where I left off and start again right?  That is the point and living and learning in life. 

I’ve been reading some pretty inspirational stuff lately.  I’ve also been taking photos and keeping up with college.  Doing fair with that.  English is improving my writing skills though I know that I can do even better with that.  I’m also preparing to homeschool the kids again and spending a lot of time online gathering curriculum and notes to use.  There’s so much great stuff to work with that it’s all so hard to choose but I am letting the Lord lead my feet and guide me to his path this time.  So far, He’s doing a great job but I honestly did not expect any less.

I have a lot going on.  Painting in the girls room, organizing all over the house.  Got to finish the boys bathroom, start on the girls.  Also have to set up for a classroom but the basis for that is begun and I need to pick up reading books to work with, just to keep around home.  So much to do, so little time they say and it’s sooo true.

Well, that’s about it for now… until next time… and hopefully next time I’ll be a little more organized with what all I have to say. 🙂

A Decade of Thanks {2000-2010}

January 4, 2010 by Dana

I started this blog post yesterday but was not able to finish because my littlest little was not feeling well. 

My inspiration for this came from many sources.  The one source that I found the most inspiring was Marsha’s blog over at Taste and See God’s Goodness.  The blog entitled Saying Goodbye to a Decade speaks of just that and reminds us all of the wonderous events that can happen in 10 short years.

As I look back over the past 10 years, I see many things to be thankful for. 

  • The birth of my three wonderful children: Winston in 2000, Emmalee in 2003 and Laycie in 2008. 
  • Being lead to homeschool my children through the love and word of God.
  • Finding God and Jesus and choosing to allow them to become part of my life, admist all of the chaos.
  • Learning to appreciate the small moments in my life and all that God has provided me with.
  • Reconnecting with my family on my Dad’s side.
  • Our country’s survival of the attacks on 9/11/2001.
  • My survival of two car accidents in ’04.
  • and soooo much more!

I can hardly believe that 10 years have passed since the Millenium came.  So much has happened and so many changes and blessings have occurred.  It’s a blessing to be able to look back and see all of those things, all the trials and tribulations we have made it through and all of the good memories we have to last for decades to come.  I pray that this decade is as much of a blessing as the last one has been!

Keeping House with the Lord {January 1, 2010}

January 2, 2010 by Dana

Today is the first day of the year 2010.  It has been a fairly good day overall.  I was able to sleep in thanks to my hunny.  I ate dinner with family, right down to the collards and black-eyed peas.  I thank Ms. Virginia for her wonderful meal.

I have also started on my resolutions. 

  • I have posted daily photo for my 365 days in Photos project. 
  • I have re-organized my photos on the laptop from last year.
  • I have read my inspirational article for the day.

My inspirational article is from the Heart of the Matter online.   Making Your Home a Haven was written by Jennifer Sikora, a loving, homeschooling mother of two.  This article talks about housekeeping with the Lord’s help, by showing God’s love in each of your rooms, praying over the rooms and allowing the Lord to direct and live in them, as well as in you.

Housekeeping is a task I desperately dread.  I am organizationally challenged.  I am a procrastinator (there I admit it!).  I would rather do anything, except clean and organize my house.  I understand this is an inherited trait in my family but it is a trait that I am attempting to overcome.

Making Your Home a Haven has helped me to see that I should not be cleaning house for myself, or for my family but for the Lord.  I should be allowing him to beautify my home and my life.  These are the things I should be choosing to do for myself and my family to better their lives and home.  God should shine throughout my life, not just in me but also in my home.

It is my goal, that by the end of 2010, my home will reflect my love for God and his immense LOVE for me and my family.  I look forward to completing this goal and enjoying my time doing it.

1st Corinthians 10:31–Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

New Year’s Resolution {New Years 2010}

December 31, 2009 by Dana

Normally, I do not do New Year’s resolutions.  I think they are over-rated and a waste of time.  Most people never manage to do them or they make their goals so high that they are unachievable. However, after reading many a resolution from various friends this year, I have decided to give it a shot.  I mean, after all, what can it hurt?

So what are my resolutions for this year? 

My main resolution is to organize our home and lives.  To get rid of the unnecessary and unwanted.  To make neat, useful and beautiful those things we choose to live with.  I want to stop living in a life of chaos and clutter and start living a normal, happy, ORGANIZED life.  This will not be an easy task but it is something I have been wanting to do for a very long time!

My other resolution for this year is to create a better, well-rounded me.  I want to work on myself, my attitude, my views.  My plan in achieving this goal is to read once a day something inspiring, something educational, something that will make me stop and think about life and myself and how to make those things better.  This one won’t be the easiest or the hardest resolution to manage but I think it will be very helpful and a lot of fun.

I am also commiting myself to complete a project this year of 365 days in Photographs.  I think it will be fun to document our lives and our thoughts with this project.  This will be a big commitment for me but I also think it is a manageable commitment.

I have a few goals for my kids and also have college to work on throughout this year that will keep me busy.  I look forward to starting these things and doing my best at them as I enter 2010.  With God’s helping guidance I know that I can complete them easily.

Happy New Year to all!!
