my one word ..... JOY (for the 2nd time) & RISE

One Word Living ..... choose one word to focus on for the next year, 2018. Sounds a bit crazy, yet it's doable and so much fun and fascinating to see how this single one word lives in, out, and all around in my part of the world! Try it ... I've done this for a very long time. It's anchoring, refreshing and some times comical how it plays out.  Go on ~ check it out.

myoneword.org

It will take some thought, time and effort & praying too! (at least it does for me!!) I could share why I chose this word, but no one reads this and I've tucked the reasons into my heart for now.

Share your word with me.  I like to give myself a visual reminder of my word & I try to write it some how & some where weekly.  Have fun!!

Blessings .... 2018 is coming!

All because of Christ, Michelle

MEMORIES

Memories, we all have them!!
What is the youngest memory you have?

And all that we do with our memories!! I scrapbook ~ have done the 12x12's for years, went to 8x8's the last two years .. and I love love love photos! Anyone's photos I can look at .... I secretly create "pages" in my brain ~ everything from paper, colors, embellishments and fun things to say!

Memories ... we do all have them. Some so awesome you can't get the story out quick enough. Some so painful you can't find the exact words to express your sentiment. Some are so silly and funny.  And some happen when you least expect it. MEMORIES ... you do have them.
Care to share a few ~ I would love to hear them.

My heart lives in a 6 year old, Michelle

getting to the end of the year ...2017

Countdown to Christmas most definitely!! and without hesitating I am definitely counting down until the new year .... 2018!! I.AM.SERIOUS.  Adios, bye, buh bye, see you later, be gone!

Big breath
        .... so, I know you are asking "WHAT?" AND "Why?" Well, without going into the nitty-gritty details the list is long and ugly.  Some 'items' have been resolved, fixed from the damage of the hurricane, and more issues have popped up, and more keep popping up... UggAMugga!
DONE DONE DONE. KWIM? Any scripture come to mind or resonating in your heart?  Help!!

Isaiah 43:18 "Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past."
FORGET as in do NOT remember it ever ever ever, got it!
Former things as in 2017 ~ got it!
Dwell as in rethink it, talk about it, dream about it, rethink it, talk about it and ..... ~ over it!
On The Past as in 2017.

Extra big breath. Is it over yet???

Blessings to you all ... leave a note, say hello! Seriously, it would be fantastic to hear from you!!
Are you counting down anything?
Are you wanting to forget former things? Let me know and just possibly we can form a tribe ... to help one another, build each other up, pray for one another and support each other as iron sharpens iron.  My prayer, my desire ..... C'mon New Year 2018

Love, Michelle
