It is week 3 of 3 in 30. However, since I missed last weeks link up due to a migraine that I had several days, I thought I would go ahead and give an update on week 2 as well.
In week 2, we were supposed to give an update on how that week went for us. Well, I can say, it did not go well for me at all. Like I mentioned before, I had a headache/migraine most of the week. Even though I did manage to read my bible and pray daily (goal 1), I did not manage to do make any cards (goal 2). I also did not manage to write down what I ate during the week. I also did not exercise any. However, I did not have much of an appetite and still managed to lose 5 lbs(goal 3). So I was only 1 for 3 on week 2 of my goals. I wasn’t happy about that, but sometimes that is the way things go.
For week 3, we are supposed to let you know what quote, scripture or encouraging words have gotten us through this week. Most any scripture that I have read this week has helped me each and every day. However, the one that has stuck out more than any of the other is Psalm 121 that I posted on Wednesday. I also repeat to myself daily, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me”, Philippians 4:13. I am also part of a group who talks daily to let each other know how our day is going. It is nice to have friends help hold you accountable and to give encouraging words to help you through those tough moments when you don’t feel like you can make it.
I have done well this week with my goals and look forward to wrapping up next Friday to see what I was able to accomplish. Perhaps you will consider taking part in 3 in 30 next month!
its so great to have friends to help you during the week. its so helps to talk with someone about your goals & how its going.
I'm so sorry you've had a migraine.
Migraines are the worst. I hope it's long gone now. Don't worry about what you didn't get to do during that time.

Sounds like you're doing great with your goals. That is one of my favorite scriptures, too…very motivating and encouraging!
I agree, sometimes that's just the way it goes. I'm there too! NOT where I anticipated, but it's ok, as long as we continue to move forward. =)
I'm glad your headaches are gone…….
Keeping it Personal,

Keep going! You are doing a wonderful job!
Ohhh you're the homeschooling blogger who lives in the smokies (sooo jealous) I'd love to live there!
I started a homeschool blog http;//ourhomeschoolcalling.com 🙂
Just moving is an accomplishment with a migraine. 🙂 Good job at doing what you were able to considering everything!
Accountability is SO important in helping us to stay motivated and focused. Even though it's been a rough month, I love that you haven't given up! The success in continuing to move forward, even if it's not as quickly as you might have hoped!
migraines can have a way of throwing a monkey wrench into well-laid plans. However at least you were able to accomplish something, which is better than nothing. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!!
