It’s the end of the year and I’m ready to slow down. 2014 has been filled to the brim with so many good things and I’ve been working hard. Every day has a game plan: schooling, home projects, kids’ sports, exercise, business to-dos, the regular household chores, etc etc. After our perfect Thanksgiving weekend, I realized that while I love accomplishing all of these things, I also need time to step back a bit. It seems December is the perfect time to cut out all the extras and focus on my little family for awhile.
For the month of December, these are my only goals:
1. No sugar until Christmas. I’ve been working hard to get back in shape and I think giving up sugar will help me overcome the plateau I’ve had the past month. It may just kill me to pass on the cookies and other goodies, but I’m going to try! (I’m in a wedding at the end of the month, so big motivation there too.)
2. Start thinking about the New Year. You know me and my love of goals and resolutions! I’ll be asking all the questions: What do I want to do personally in 2015? How do I want Big White Farmhouse to grow? What home projects do I want to accomplish? What memories do I want to experience with my family? What do I want to share with others on the blog? How can I grow in my faith? Starting the lists and being inspired for what’s to come.
3. Slow down and enjoy this magical season with my family.
What are your goals for December?
P.S. Big White Farmhouse is so excited to be a part of Call Her Happy’s Holiday Gift Guide! We’re giving away one of our pewter ornaments, so be sure to check it out!
