I am one who has a long list of things to do and instead of concentrating on getting just those things done, I add more and more to the list. This in turn has wreaked havoc and I have basically gotten nowhere with getting things done, at least not in a timely, organized, manner. This idea of taking just 3 things off of that "to-do" list and concentrating on getting them done in a months time is ingenious. I am geeked about participating and getting to know the others in the 3 in 30 community as well.
Here are my March 3 in 30 goals:
** Get Crafty - March is National Craft Month...in case you were wondering...so I would like to finish a few of the projects I have started as well as start on a few others. I am making my first ever Waldorf Doll for my daughter and I have all but the eyes, mouth, hair, and clothes finished, so she tops the list. I would then like to start on cutting out and piecing together the fabric for my sons dinosaur quilt. After that gets done...if there is still time left in the month...I would like to start making these cute owl bookends that I have been itching to make since downloading the pattern! This should keep me pretty busy this month in the craft department, so I guess my knitted projects are going to have to wait until April...
**Devotions/Quiet Time - This is an area that seems to always need improving with me. I am constantly looking for ways to get closer to and more intimate with my Lord and Saviour. I struggle with finding time on a daily/regular basis to get in His Word, so this is something I am going to really work harder at this month. Also, I would LOVE to find a devotional/study/prayer book of sorts to help me really dive in and eat His Words. {suggestions would be greatly appreciated!}
**Get Outdoors - Warmer weather is starting to find it's way into our neighborhood, so I am making it my goal that on those days, when the sun is shining at the temp is above freezing, to strap on our tennis shoes and get outside. Whether it be a walk around the block, a trip to the park, or simply playing in the backyard...as long as we are outside getting some fresh air and exercise!
That's it for me this month. I have a lot to keep me busy and a lot to work at. Praying I can acheive it all enjoyably!

Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. – 1 Corinthians 15:58
