HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!
I'm back! thought about it and decided new year, big plans and changes and it wouldn't hurt to write them all down. The goal for this year is to be a less and more year....
Worry LESS ~ PRAY MORE
eat LESS ~ move MORE
drive LESS ~ walk MORE
talk LESS ~ listen MORE
cry LESS ~ laugh MORE
spend LESS ~ save MORE
sit LESS ~ play MORE
watch LESS ~ read MORE
Less and More.... So where do you start? I was listening to Home and Family this morning while I made the bed and the expert had something very interesting to say. She said if you make your resolutions to broad then you will fail. Instead of saying "lose weight" make your goal "fit into my jeans" seems like a more attainable goal and you are less likely to quit. Instead of saying "no more sugar" quit drinking soda or cut that 2 scoops to 1. baby steps.
Speaking of baby steps We are starting the Dave Ramsey plan. The goal is to be able to live well within our means and buy a home of our own. It is always so frustrating to me that my husband works so hard and makes good money but we scrape by. Starting off with paying down debt, making what Dave calls the debt snowball. Gathering information and credit reports makes me want to close my eyes, stick my fingers in my ears and sing the theme to the Flintstones. But it is all about baby steps.
So big changes coming. Changing our eating habits, our spending habits.
I hope those of you who read this blog will continue to check in to see how we are doing. I hope to have some interesting things to say, things that will make you laugh, make you think, make you want to keep reading.
So HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!! Lets make 2013 AMAZING!
