Good-bye 2011

2011 is drawing to a close, and everyone is looking back on their year, and thinking about what all happened, and what they want to do differently in the next year. Some people are making resolutions, some are planning big things, and some people are just going with the flow. I am doing a little of all of those. I'm not making any real "resolutions," because I see too many people making them, just to mess up and becoming angry or upset at themselves. I have a few goals I would like to achieve, and they aren't unachievable goals, so I believe I can do it. 

One of my goals is to become more organized, with my time, my house, and my life. I have always been one to live by a calendar, but in the last year or so, I have fallen out of that, and I plan to get back to it in 2012. I won't stress, though, if things don't go exactly as my calendar says. I am starting new classes in ten days, so I need to organize my time to fit in school work, Gavin's homework, church activities, Cub Scouts, housework, and any other extra activities that come up. I really hope to stay away from Facebook more, and concentrate on the things I just listed more. 

Another goal is to become closer to more people. I have several people in my life that I talk to sometimes, but I am hoping to become closer to more people, and get to know a few more people better this year. I need a little more social adult time, and I am hoping to get some of that this year.

My final goal, which really should be my first priority, is to grow more in my faith in God. I have grown a ton over the last year, and I really hope to grow even more this next year. I have some more books I plan to read, and a new devotional I plan to start, beginning tomorrow. 

I can't wait to see what God has planned for me and my little man in 2012. Whatever comes at me, I know He will be by my side, no matter what. What are your goals for 2012?

Trying Again!

Well, 2011 is coming to a close, and I wrote absolutely zero posts in 2011. I guess it's time to try again. 2012 begins in less than 24 hours, and I have new goals and dreams, new wants and desires. I am embarking on a new journey heading into 2012 with fresh eyes. My plans for this year include attempting to organize my life and time better than I did in 2011. I have new classes beginning January 9, and I have new endeavors to pursue this coming year, as well. Stay tuned for more posts. I am not going to say I will try to write any certain amounts, like I have in the past, but I will try to post as often as I can. Feel free to come along with me, or not. I don't get much traffic on this page, but that's okay. I write more for me than anyone else.
