I just installed a Carbon Monoxide alarm in my bedroom so I can sleep without worrying about my gas fireplace. So, all should be well and safe in my home.
As I look towards 2009 here are some things I'd like to either do or do better (I am intentionally avoiding the term resolution--less accountable I guess):
1. I want to get a passport. I just might want to go somewhere someday and I want to be ready.
2. I want to be less cautious.
3. I want to do better at teaching my kids spiritual truths and principles.
4. I want to give more. I am thinking of trying to do one generous thing a month for someone anonymously. I want to teach my kids how to be givers.
5. I want to take more risks in my work and find creative ways to do new ministry.
6. I'd like to change some things in my house. However, everything works fine and looks fine so it is hard to justify spending money when I don't really need it. I guess I'd like some change just because it might feel like I was moving forward. I know I am moving forward but my house reminds me of my past.
7. I want to take better care of myself. I need to exercise more and eat healthier.
8. I want to continue my education and find ways to use my education and life experiences to fulfill the purpose God has for me. I don't know exactly what that will mean but God seems to be giving me some new passions and desires.
9. I want to spend some one on one time with Braden. I don't know if that will mean we take a short trip together or just that I make more of an effort to do special things with just him.
10. I want to rent a camper and take the kids camping. No tent camping for me, thank you very much. They have been wanting to do this and it's time I try to make that happen.
So, there it is....Here's to 2009.
