5 Hopes For 2016

I'm aiming for small things this year...

1.  RECOVER!  I have a myriad of appointments to arrange and attend this year to aid my recovery - physiotherapy, chiropractic, counselling, hospital follow-ups, blood tests.  It's doing my head in already.

2.  Send my book to more literary agents and publishers.

3.  Have regular quiet times.  We're only 15 days into the new year and I feel like I'm failing already.  But maybe if I was succeeding I'd be tempted to become proud.  Thank the Lord it's all about His grace.

4.  Declutter and sell things to raise money for missions or whoever the Lord places across my path in need of money.  As soon as Flynn outgrows the baby stuff, IT'S OUTTA HERE.

5.  Read and comment on other blogs more.  I failed dismally at this last year as I was too preoccupied in keeping my own blog afloat.

Good for you! Goals definitely help, but don't be too hard on yourself if you don't quite make them all as well as you'd like.
I also just saw this and thought it might be of interest: http://inkandfeet.com/how-to-help-someone-with-depression

Go well.
I prayed for you today, especially regarding the decision making surrounding number 4. Take good care. Love God's Word and be refreshed by it as you do all the rest.

Thanks ladies.

That's a helpful article for carers/friends of people with depression, Wendy, thank you. I like the line 'You are triage.'
