Goal Setting: Week of June 21, 2015

Well this week was definitely a mostly fail.  Sometimes I tend to get over-zealous and make some lofty goals despite the fact that I have a lot of stuff going on...like preparing for vacation...getting ready for a yard sale...last minute assignments...you know the stuff. Let's look on the bright side.  I did accomplish some things this week, and at the time I'm posting this, I still have a day left to squeeze some small things in.  Here's how I did this week: Spiritual: Devotions (5/7) Designated prayer time (2/7) Mental: Journal (2/7) Physical: No soda 8 c. of water daily Exercise (3/7)…

Scripture Sunday: Stay Calm

"The Lord Himself will fight for you.  Just stay calm." - Exodus 14:14 This verse has just popped into my head a couple of times this week, and when I feel like freaking out, this is a good verse to remember.  I have it in my household management binder and in my bedroom, and I find it a helpful reminder that we're not in this thing called life on our own.  Whether you have been living in sin and feel like God can't possibly be with you, whether you just feel like you're alone in life, or if you're just…

I am actually reposting this recipe from quite a while ago.  We made it again last week, and it was so good I couldn't help but post it again.  While I was at it, I decided to update the pictures and make some adjustments to the recipe.  I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we did, because I got hungry just thinking about it! Let me just start out by saying this is most definitely one of my most favorite dishes...ever!  Oh my goodness I loved it.  And so did Prince Charming and Rapunzel.  I would definitely make…

Work-in-Progress Wednesday

This Work-in-Progress Wednesday, I continue to work on the printable scripture cards I told you about last week.  There are just so many verses I love and want to share that it's hard to weed any out. I'm also working on trying to post ahead of schedule so that you can continue to get your daily dose of Making the Most.  I'm sure many of you can identify with the fact that things just come up many days, and I know our summer plans have the potential of taking up my daily blogging time as it has in the past.  And…
