Anyone have big plans for tonight or tomorrow?  Max has a hockey tonight, but his knee is hurting a lot so he may not go.  I reserved 3 movies at Redbox.

This morning I went to Penney's to return some things and was surprised at the traffic and the number of people shopping.  I went to Target and could hardly get out of the parking lot. 

We may go out to eat.  I have a coupon for a free meal at Ruby Tuesday's.  Went to Aldi's today and got some great deals.  They had hummus for $1.69 and it's as good or better than the brand I usually buy for over $4.  Bought some shrimp and wild salmon too.

Hope all of you have a safe and happy New Year's Eve!!

Hi, Jo & MO Peeps:

The boys and I just made Janet Corbin's Chicken Enchilada recipe and some home made guacamole.   We're all planning on staying home tonight.  After we eat we're going to watch the first two Chronicles of Narnia movies.  That's almost 5 hours of movie time so we'll probably pause for a few minutes to ring in the new year with our Sparking Wench's grape juice - white & red! Lil!  Tomorrow I hope to take down all our Christmas decorations.  Then Sunday after church we're all going to go see the new Chronicles of Narnia movie at the theaters.  It's been awhile since I've seen any of the Chronicles of Narnia movies so that's why I wanted to see the first and second one before we went to see the newest ones.  Helps to refresh my memory!

Does anyone have any New Year's Resolutions they'd like ti share with the Board?  I have enrolled in a course at CBC for Microsoft Office for the Spring Semester which starts in 2 weeks!  The last course I took was for LOTUS 123 back in like 1993!  I know just enough of Word to be able to do simple things and the same for Power Point.  However, I want to know more about both those programs.  I know NOTHING about EXCEL and that is something I think I would use a lot of!  So that's my first resolution of the New Year.  I'd like to at least get a "B" in that class.

Another resolution I have is to learn Kay Arthur's Precept Study method to study my bible.  I first the first time in my life, just finished reading the entire bible Thur this year!  I followed the thread Andy did...bought my own bible that was laid out that way.  I had never read the entire bible through before!  This year I'd like to read it again from start to finish and use the Precept study method.  I planning on buying an Inductive Study Bible to help with this as well.  Kay Arthur is having a workshop in Lee's Summit in March for 2 days.  I'm hoping a few ladies from our church will want to go with me.  I think I'd learn a lot and it would help with me to be able to study the bible better. 

I'd also like to exercise at least 3 times a week.  I pay for a gym membership that is like 3 minutes from my house and I just don't use it.  

Last my but least, I want to declutter my life!  DH has promised to help me next weekend to clean out our closet(s) and to organize them!

Jo - you like hummus?  Is there a particular flavor you like? I bought some a couple years ago and simply couldn't stand it.  I know it's really good for you.  I'd be willing to try it again if there was a flavor I liked.  Haven't been to Aldi's in awhile.  Need to check out the shrimp and Salmon there too.  It's hard to find wild salmon.  How do you cook your salmon?

Mama Jan - sounds like you're busy getting ready for your trip.  When do you and Joe leave?  Hope you're taking your laptop, would miss not "seeing" you smiling face! 

Jeanie Rae - I love reading your posts!  It's exciting to see how the Lord is working in your life!  I know he has great things in store for you!  Daytona sounds great!  Although, the temp here yesterday got up to 67!  However, it's back into the 30's today and the rest of the weekend!

MO Peeps - I hope each and everyone of you have a Blessed New Year!  If you're out and about tonight, please be careful!

Love you all!

Debbie D.

Debbie, sounds like you are looking forward to a great year.  I haven't made any resolutions but New Year's Day is a favorite day for me.  It's like we have a clean slate to start over. 

I need to exercise more too.  My gym membership is on hold.  I just can't make myself go out in the evening after work when it's so cold.  Maybe I should change at work and directly to the gym.  I have a Health Ryder but it's in my sewing room in the garage and it's very cold out there.  I have heaters out there but it takes a while for it to warm up.  Then there are the exercise DVDs.  I got a portable DVD player for Christmas so I have a way to workout where it's warm.

We did a book review on the Chronicle of Narnia and I've seen the movie.

Debbie, I started reading the Bible the last 2 years, but just couldn't stick with it.  I bought a Bible that is in chronological order.  I'm only 6 miles from Lee's Summit so I would be interested in the class you mentioned.  I'll send you my personal email so you can email me directly.

I do like hummus.  Can't remember the brand I get at Hy-Vee but it has a red lid and is over $4.  I like the garlic flavor or the one with pine nuts.  The flavor I bought at Aldi's is Cayenne Pepper.  It's a little spicey but not real hot.   I had it with pita chips.
