My progress has been slow, however better than no progress!
Getting up before sunrise has become a habit now, as a result I go to bed a lot earlier and feeling much better for it!
We rarely eat out now or have takeaway. My dh has noticed a huge improvement in our budget and the amount we can save as a result.
This week I've initiated an exercise program. As I mentioned earlier, I've almost completely recovered from a chronic illness that had me house bound for almost a year. This is the first time I've had the strength to go walking for 20-30 minutes each day.
My memory verses are coming along slowly. I'm working on being consistent with my personal worship time in the morning. I really notice a big difference on the days I make an effort to connect with God.
I'm also busy with the Fascinating Womanhood course, which has been really great. We are finishing week 3 of the 12 month course.
In an effort to get back to the home and away from outside employment, I've finally taken the plunge and enrolled in a writing course with the Australian College of Journalism. My aim is to write freelance for magazines, newspapers and websites.
FW is a 12 week course. Oops!
Wow, Kelleigh, that is awesome to hear and inspiring to me as I continue to struggle with the sunrise thing! We didn't have a winner this week (no one completed the challenge), but I'll keep posting them as a goal. Praise the Lord for how He is working in your life!
