101 Things – Monthly Update

I have to admit that I have changed a few things in my list.  As I got started, I felt as if I didn’t challenge myself enough or that some things we were not doable.  But as of today, here are the things that I have accomplished.

  • I had my old bills shredded at the CBS Great Shred Event on 2/6/10
  • I purchased an all-weather coat/trench coat on 2/22/10.  I can’t say that I am totally pleased with the purchased, but I did it.

Reoccurring Things

  • Take a pic each week (2/132) – this is not going so well, because we forget to do it.
  • Surprise hubby with Just Because gifts at least once a quarter (1/8) – I bought him a casual winter cap.
  • Call my grandmothers at least every other month (1/16) – I spoke to my Father’s mother.  She was really surprised.  My mother’s mother has been unavailable.  I am not sure if there is something wrong with my phone or not.  Everyone else seems to get in touch in with her. LOL
  • Try a new recipe once a month (1/33) – this month I made a recipe thta include a mix of collard greens, black-eyed peas and rotel tomatoes.  It was quite tasty. the only thing that missing was a little cornbread.

  • Do a monthly update of 101 things on blog (1/33) – if you are reading this, then I have made my update.
  • Wash the car or have it washed at least every other month (1/16) – J washed the car for me this past Sunday.

Things in Progress

  • Buy new pillows and pillow protectors – the pillow are bought, but I haven’t found pillow protectors for a reasonable price.
  • Record an EP and/or Demo – writing songs and looking for music.
  • Self-promote my music – I’ve got someone proofreading it for me.
  • Have Praise & Worship Night at least 4 times (0/4) – my first praise and worship night will happen in July 2010.

I Have Good News

The good news that I have is that I will be doing my very first concert this summer.  I am so excited!!!!!  The date will be July 24th and it will be a night of praise and worship.  This is such a blessing to me and I am just elated.

I know that I don’t talk much about my singing ministry on this blog but I had to share this with you as it is so important to me.  The other reason that I wanted to share my good news is because I love God and when he does great things for me, I need to share it with others.

Sharing your good news is a part of your testimony and our testimonies have power.  God gets the glory when we tell others of his goodness and at the same time,  the devil is defeated. 

So, take this opportunity to tell me your good news.  What has God done for you in the past couple of months?
