Accomplishing Goals, changing Routines, What a wonderful Year

Good Morning, I thought I would share some things with you today

I love this photo we took 3 years ago, yes I am reflecting over the past three years

I so wanted to have Huge Elephant Ears and other plants this year

But I never got around to it

Maybe next year if I can? that depends on if I want to

Not because I fall into the routine of thinking I Have to because

I Planned It!! I will get done what I do and I will enjoy it

I hoped to take in more hours enjoying The lake this summer

But we never had enough time to!

Does this upset me? NO

With the heat we as many endured this summer I prefer to wait for Fall!

I have taken a New path in life all year this year

Planned? Maybe I did give it a lot of thought when the year began

I actually am not a person to do the resolutions

But I do set goals.........and no not to do better

But to cope better, I normally always let being busy 

*some may say too busy*

Get in the way of what I hope will unfold in the Year

~~ Well it seems if we slow down and take things as they happen~~

you really get more done and enjoy it much MORE!

I have enjoyed more of these and other critters, more time with

Hubby on the deck and my dogs

Reflection is good, it makes you realize you were not meant to move mountains

every day, so I have approached things a bit differently

And I have to confess this has been a Wonderful Year

Let me begin with this to give you an idea of what I am rambling on about

I normally always started my days out with coffee and spending a couple of hours

on this computer, with a list a mile long to make use of the morning hours networking

well I have been up for a couple of hours now, 

(yes I finally slept last night)

And instead I may sit and pet my dogs and drink my coffee

I look out my window and watch daylight unfold in front of me

I check my email, get up and access what I want to get done in a day

*DID you hear that ? want, not what I Have to get done!*

I sat back down, and if I feel like getting on my blog to post I do

at first this really bothered me because I do not always have time to

read other blogs, but I now do that when I feel like taking the time to do it

I begin this year wanting to get my building done

* And I just realized I have still yet let that situation Bug me *

Not no more I have decided that I need to approach that differently

Then I look back at photos of when we were in our RV

When I started back online three years ago

And I think, wow I have come along way

no not because of not being in the RV anymore

I would just as soon live in it

I Make do with what I have and that my dear friends is what

It is all ABOUT

I will get my cramped situation under control and fixed someday

But until then instead of stressing over it, I just cope with what I have

to work with, and I thank the Lord for that!

I enjoy what I do and without all of you

I would not enjoy it

My approach to this year

realizing I did not have to let undue things or others reflect on my life

like I have in the past, I begin this year shutting my door to anything

negative, realizing I did not have to endure outside things that kept me upset

Understanding that I am me I am a Good person I love the Lord and I know

what ever he has planned for me, there is a reason and I will get done what ever I can do

that I will STOP long enough to enjoy his Beauty and Blessings

to Stop fretting and stressing, OH it feels so good!!

*so do take some time to just reflect, you will feel much better*

It now seems like there are more hours in a day

like I can accomplish so much more and enjoy myself doing that

I hope you will take some time today to enjoy something

I am so Happy with the changes I have made this year!!

some times being stuck in a routine can prevent you from

enjoying what you do

Have a wonderful day
