Today I am making my pantry list for the month, which will mean going in to rearrange and see what is needed.
Will be going to deals or dollar tree to stock up on dish soap, soap shampoo and such this week..  Don't know what I was thinking, but I let my supply go way down.  Now to start over again.  Intend to keep up with it in the new year.  Organization is going to be a big thing this year, and being a good steward of the money that God gives us.

Blessings

Looking forward to the New Year

Things I want to do for the New Year, to be a better Christian, wife and mother.

I'm putting it in writing to make me accountable, so I can see my accomplishments and my failures to know what needs work.

I want to draw closer to Jesus, by reading and studying his word.
I want to spend more time with my husband and children and less on the computer.
Learn to make as many things as possible from scratch.
Practice hospitality.
Make a garden.
Raise chickens
Save money and shop wisely.

Come go along with me and we can learn together.

Blogs the computer, a little of everything I guess

I have wanted to start a blog and this one has been here a while. I leave I come back periodically, the written word is right where you left it, if you go away for a day, a week, or maybe forever. If you decide to come back you can pick right up where you left off, this is not so with your family. While you and I are on the computer our life off the computer contiunues.....without us. I guess you could say God has been convicting me of this for a while now. More time with the family, more time with Jesus, less time with the computer. I intend to start updating this blog often with my daily life on our little homestead and with my struggles to cut back on the computer. Why you ask would someone want to start a blog while wanting to spend less time on the computer... because I want my computer time to be productive.

Lets encourage each other in the coming year and see where God leads us in the coming yr.
