Today is day 1 of Rhonna's 21 day Challenge.
My journal is titled, Calling All Angels, I was inspired by a song on Rella's blog http://faerieluna.blogspot.com/ with the same title.
The reason for the 21 day challenge is that it takes 21 days to make or break a habit, or to make something a reality.
I have 3 goals I will be working on: 1.Read my Bible daily, Seek God, and pray for others daily. 2. Get fundraiser planned and raise enough money for John's wheelchair ramp and household modifications. 3. Eat moderately and eat healthy food , exercise every single day no matter what. Get started on losing the weight I want to lose this year.
I made the journal I am using, by using a plain composition notebook, and then covering it with craft paper, and then adding letters. Then decorating the first page by using watercolors , and then gluing down paper lace and writing out my goals.
I am really looking forward to doing this. I had to take my feeling of being overwhelmed and turn it into something constructive. I have a plan now, and I will accomplish it. ~ Determined Nita~
well Miz Nita...by my count you have more like SEVEN goals...smile.

Hello sweet Nita! You have been in my thoughts all day today...Your journal is beautiful and what a wonderful way to record your thoughts and press on toward each and every one of your goals. I wish so badly that I had tons of money. I would send you a check right this minute to help you with the renovations that need doing around your home for your husband, John. You are continually in my thoughts and prayers....xxoo, Dawn
