No TV for 40 days...Giving up TV for Jesus...what is a girl to do, you may ask?? She gets down to business and fills her evenings and weekends with other things. More productive things. More things glorifying to God. Tonight for starters, I started over with the checkbook. Now this is the disclaimer...if you are squirmish around people who don't balance their checkbooks every month, you should stop reading right now. When it didn't balance a while back (or a year or so) and I just couldn't get it right, I just stopped trying. I know, you are just cringing at that thought, but we just kept an eye on the account online and were diligent with writing things down, transfering when needed, and so on. It's been fine (wink, wink). Tonight I am trying the excel register. Formulas are all set up and rolling and I just started over. We'll see how things go this month and hopefully when the bank statement comes next month, we'll be "right as rain"...or least a soft drizzle. So I figure this will be a wonderful time to get some blogging done. What fun!! I won't tackle a lot tonight, but I'm hoping to change some backgrounds, pictures, gadgets, etc. OH the things I still have to learn and explore. Can't wait to see what doors God is going to open for me in this 40 day adventure. He has already taught me so much in the past 2 weeks as I started Lysa Terkhurst's Bible Study called, "Unglued" about how to manage my raw emotions with some of the most fabulous ladies from my church. Imperfect progress is what I am striving for these days. I'm so excited!!!!!
