january goals

one: make time for Jesus. all i wanted for christmas from mr. monaco was a new bible to annotate and {possibly} explore some water coloring as i study, read, and pray. and he bought me the most beautiful white and gold bible. i also plan to follow the phenomenal and beautiful blog, she reads truth throughout this month and year. have you ever followed she reads truth? if not, i recommend checking it out- the button/link are located towards the bottom of my blog- you won’t be disappointed. it’s so amazing.

two: try at least two new recipes – any suggestions?

three: volunteer

four: start going to the library again – as a child and as a young adult, i practically lived there. hoping to add this magical destination to my regular schedule. ready to explore and enjoy again.

five: clean eating/cleanse … this past fall i started an organic, natural, and stimulant-free cleanse/nutritional program – along with clean eating and literally felt the best i ever felt- without a doubt. i dropped almost 29 inches and 16 pounds in just 30 days. my energy {without coffee} was through the roof and i was falling in love with my body and the way i felt- esp. the way my clothes were fitting me. i plan to start again on monday, january 12 {my body has been craving it} *it rids the body of toxins {toxins that diseases love to thrive on and changes your body from an acidic state to an alkaline state … and was just voted one of the top ten nutritional programs by SELF magazine- as you can see, i can’t say enough about it} if you would like to join me, i would love to help you! just let me know – email me at nellamonaco5@gmail.com. i know you will love it and i would love to do this journey with you.
