Motivation Monday – Getting my planner ready
This is the first try at over-head video – so, the images are reversed. That is part of tweaking my week as I go. Each day I learn something new. Planning my week and my day is very important to me. Each item listed helps to keep me focused and on track. I also use […]
Suddenly it’s Saturday
Like I didn’t know it was coming? ha, ha, ha Saturdays are often quiet days for me. We work together on the family budget, tidy up loose ends from the week, and I finalize my Sermon. I go over the message in my head all week, the key points that speak to me and that […]
