Ready to Fly in 2013 & A Blogging Tradition


“Isn't it nice to think that tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it yet?”
― L.M. Montgomery


Oh, I have so much to write and share with what the Lord has been teaching me this last year.  Warning, if you ever ask the Lord with a sincere heart to to lead and guide you, He will!  That is exactly what the Lord did for me in 2012.  I had so many questions and really needed some more direction for my continued "  Journey  To Better Health".  The real challenge was to try to keep up with what the Lord was showing me. I was just reflecting a few days ago how this has been a long journey but oh so worth it.  To be able to say that I am 95 to 98% better is so good to be able to say.  Yes, I promise I will be sharing what the Lord showed me.  One thing at a time I promise and I will do my best to share it all with you.  God is so good all the time.  All the time God is so GOOD!

 I hope this coming year to start again and continue to share what I have and am still learning.  I also want to write in this book (via my blog) of my days and all the many facets of who the Lord is shaping me to be.  One day may be just thoughts, one may just be pictures and other days will be both.  Yes, truly I feel the Lord has brought me out of my cocoon and I am now ready to fly.


I have had a blogging tradition for a few years now to post a snippet of my year of blogging.  The rule is to post the first sentence only (and a picture from the post if you want) and see how it flows together.  It is always so fun to see how it turns out each year.

POST FROM ....

>> FRIDAY, JANUARY 21, 2011\


I was going through my craft patterns last night and found my notes on how to dye wool with food coloring or Kool Aide.

Once again it was so much fun to get a over all glance of my blogging for the year.  If you end up doing this let me know and I would love to come and read about your year at a glance.

  3. That is an awesome way to sum up the year...I should have come and seen your idea before I posted mine. I have been thinking about you for weeks and so I picked up the book on T-Tapp..I remember you doing it and I think you had a lot of success. I look forward to what you have to share and blessings as you continue to grow in Him and in good health.
    Hugs...and so enjoy you...even if some of the time is just through Pinterest,

  5. I had forgotten that this was the way you wrap up your year. I loved the idea when I read it last year. These days, I forget more than I remember!! I guess that is something else that makes a recap post fun for me.

    Like you, I have been cocooning, and I think (hope) that I'm ready to fly again. I will look forward to what God has taught you through yours.

  7. This was a fun post to read. I liked how you wrapped-up your year of blogging with one sentence from your blog post and a photograph.

    I'm looking forward to hearing/seeing all the wonderful things the Lord showed to you during your 2012 journey.

    Have a blessed New Year! :)
