New year resolutions Friday 5


Well it had to be didn't it, love them or hate them I bet you've been asked about New Year resolutions. So with no more fuss here is this weeks Friday Five;

1. Do you make New Year resolutions?

2. Is this something you take seriously, or is it a bit of fun?

3. Share one goal for 2008.

4. Money is no barrier, share one wild/ impossible dream for 2008

5. Someone wants to publish a story of your year in 2008, what will the title of that book be?

Let us know in comments if you play. And for even more visits to your blog, post a direct link in your comment using the following formulation:<a href="the url of your blog post goes here">what you want the link to say goes here</a>For a complete how-to, click" here.

I am playing quickly then having to head off dor a study weekend- with an essay deadline for Monday (arrgh)!
Will be back Sunday evening to catch up with everyone...I'd appreciate your prayers for that essay!

One immediate goal is to lose some weight - 5kg (10lbs) by mid Feb if I can manage it but to be honest even 2-3 will help me squeeze back into some clothes. I didn't put on weight over Christmas - it was before :(

But my real objective in 2008 is to love God more. Sounds easy but I need to prioritise time with Him not only talking about Him to do that.

Thanks Sally. Prayers for the study weekend and the deadline!
