Summer Plans

(Thank you all for your lovely, amazing, meaningful comments! They were very encouraging to me!)

Summer is approaching at lightning speed! It's amazing to think December is in almost half a year. Nearly six months until the Christmas season. Oh, man. I'm making my head spin.

Even though I'm already counting down the days until Christmas (not quite literally), I realized that I have almost no definite summer plans. Yeah, there's the family vacations and the county fair and stuff like that, but I haven't established any goals...yet.

What better time to change that than right now?

Izori's Summer Goals:

According to spell-check, 'Izori's' is a misspelled word. Spell-check, you are ignorant indeed.
Er...let's try that again.

Izori's Summer Goals:

1. Write! Write! Write! Write! Although I know that this is shooting for the moon (hey, if I miss I'll land among the stars...or something sappy like that), I would love to finish Healing, my extremely long-term project, as well as finish rewriting my NaNoWriMo book. That's going to take a whole summer in itself, I think!

2. Finish my Church History. I have to finish reading Light Force, co-authored by Brother Andrew (amazing book, by the way, and I totally suggest it) and discuss it with Mom.

3. Blog. I have been horrendous at blogging of late! It's shameful! I used to post at least once a day, and now I consider myself lucky...I mean, blessed...if I can even cram in one post a week! Hopefully, that's going to change over the summer.

4. Really study my Bible. I would love to use this summer to grow spiritually, because I feel as if I've been neglecting my time with God this year. And honestly, there's a huge difference in my attitude if I make a habit of praying, reading my Bible, and giving thanks to the Lord. It's the difference between depressed and joyful.

5. Write lots of letters! I have about three pen-pals, two of which I've never met (one of which is a little boy in a different country). During the school year I let their letters sit for...well, a very long while before I get around to answering them. But I'm going to change that! I promise!

Hmmm...I'm sure I'll think of more, but those are all the summer goals I can pull out of my head right now.

What are your plans for the summer?

Hugs & Blessings,

Izori
