I’m behind again… not on reading, but on posti I’m behind again… not on reading, but on posting the books as I finish them. My second read for the year was an audiobook by Robert and Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth called You Can Trust God to Write Your Story.  I found it both enjoyable and encouraging. The authors take turns reading the book, detailing the stories of biblical, historical, and modern day believers and sharing the journey God has taken each of them through for their good and His glory.  #flandersfamilyreads #godisgoodallthetime

Does the new year give anybody else the itch to ta Does the new year give anybody else the itch to tackle home improvement projects?  We’ve been gaining a lot of good woodworking experience over here for the past week (and dirt work/stone laying before that). Today our new picket fence (hopefully) gets a coat or two of white paint!  #householdchores #fixerupper
Finished my first book of the new year: Deep Work Finished my first book of the new year: Deep Work by Cal Newport. It was very inspiring! I’ve already begun implementing several of his suggestions, hoping to spend less time splashing around in the shallows in order to dive deep into 2023!  #flandersfamilyreads #goals
Today is National Take Down Your Christmas Tree Da Today is National Take Down Your Christmas Tree Day, so I guess I’m going to box this beauty up for another year, along with all the other trees scattered through my house.  Except the tree in our bedroom. I may just decide to keep that one up all year and switch out the ornaments to match the seasons: hearts for Valentine’s, birds, nests, and birdhouses for spring, stats and stripes for Independence Day — you get the idea.  Anybody else have a hard time clearing out all the decorations after Christmas is done and dusted?  #ochristmastree #ochristmastree #howfaithfulareyourbranches
