I am not one to make New Year's resolutions because I know that I probably will not keep it through the first month. However, I do try to become a better person than what I was before. 2016 is going to be the same way. I am going to try to be a better person than what I was in 2015.
What do I mean as a better person? I am going to work at putting God first in my life. I say I do, but I struggle at it. I have a quote posted on my bathroom mirror that says "Don't work God into your schedule. Work your schedule around God. Put God first". That was said by Joyce Meyers. I try to start every day with a devotion and prayer, but for the past couple of months, I have slagged behind on that.
A better person in not talking about people. I am so much better than what I use to be, but still room for improvement. I am tempted at times to say, "Hey, do you know what so-and-so is saying about you?" But I don't. I keep away from conflict.
I am going to blog more often. I keep up with my husband's blog, but I need to work on this one.
If anyone else is reading this, they may find more prayer and scriptures on here. I am wanting to do some Bible devotions as well. I thirst for God's word and seek to know and grow closer to Him. I want to be a positive example to my family. Not just my kids, but to the extended family as well.
Every year, I look back at what this year held for me. My son moved back home late of 2014, but moved back out earlier this year. He moved in with his girlfriend who happens to have three boys. We did not raise our children to live with out or wed-lock. They both know how we feel about it, and what the Bible says, but we love the boys and help them out as much as we can. The boys are with me right now.
My daughter started her senior year of high school. Wow, how has time flew by. I just turned around and both of my kiddos are grown. She's not for sure what she wants to do, but that's ok. She is going to trade school and is earning her CNA credentials.
My father-in-law is still fighting lung cancer. He is on a new therapy that seems to be working at keeping it contained and no new growth. However, he doesn't feel good anymore. He had his gall bladder removed in the early fall, and that seemed to help him feel better, but he still sluggish.
I got a call from my sister-in-law that my brother had a kidney stone attack while in Arkansas. She was on her way down there. She later texted me back saying that they dismissed him and he made her go back home. He needs to be thumped on top of the head.
I finally got a new car that isn't white. It is green. The past four cars have been white. I've only had seven cars.
I did get dismissed from my oncologist after 8 years of being melanoma free.
That is all I can think of right now.
Happy New Year and tomorrow, I will post some New Year thoughts for 2016. It is election year, I'm sure we won't forget that with the commercials that we will be getting bombarded with.
