Late, Late, LATE. I am late getting my post up. I considered skipping it. This week has NOT started out like I had planned. GOD had different plans for me, evidently.

Yesterday I just ran out of time. I wanted to order some books from Bethlehem books because they had a sale on their e-books and that took me quite a bit of time to decide which of their books I wanted. Then I watched some stuff with my family. But I just didn't get as much done yesterday as I had planned.

This morning I woke to find a message from my e-mail provider that someone had hacked my e-mail. So I had and still have much work to do. I am changing passwords on a lot of sites that I frequent to try and protect myself and my friends. I still have not contacted everyone that was affected. I got a bunch of undeliverable mail messages in my e-mail... those where the lucky ones... and just the stress of it all has me going crazy. My stomach is a mess. Plans for today have changed and I will probably still be seeing affects for days after that. My e-mail provider seems to have cut the scammer off my account and I changed my password twice today just to make sure of some things. Hubby also checked and changed some of my e-mail settings. Now I have many other decisions to make and may be moving some of my private/family/friend mail to another provider to keep things seperate... what a pain that will be.

So my goal for this week will be short and not so sweet.

I am now marking my top priorities with a *

My goals for this coming week:

Spiritual Goals   

1. *Morning Devotions - including Bible reading, prayer, listening to music and reading a spiritual book. Read through Proverbs each month. Prayer will be a focus this year as that is my word for 2013. I read Desiring God: Meditations of a Christian Hedonist by John Piper. And, I will be starting to read Praying God's Word: Breaking Free from Spiritual Strongholds by Beth Moore and I have the journal as well Praying God's Word: Devotional Journal. I love Beth Moore studies. I am looking forward to this. Hubby bought both of these for me recently... just because. Done
2. Participate in the Joy Dare in 2013. Writing down 3 things each day that are gifts from God, things to be thankful for totaling more than 1000 gifts in 2013. Done

Homeschool Goals

1. Keep up with planning and ordering materials for school. Done
2. Be consistent with reviewing Christopher's daily work and logging it in. Done
3. *Check Christopher's hours for his school subjects so I know how much he has done, how much he still needs to do in the next 65 days or so of school. I hope to finish this this week... at least until finishing things up during the summer. Done - FINITO!! Completely caught up... nothing but the last few weeks of school will have to be done once we are completely done school. YIPPEE! One thing on my to-do that doesn't have to get put on for this week... again!
