Just wanted to give you a memorizing tip… Read (yes, read) the verse/section aloud five times in one sitting each day, for five days. When someone told me that, and I tried it even though I was skeptical. I am amazed how much I memorize when I read instead of try to memorize. Hope that helps.

Thanks so much for the suggestion! I’ve also found that listening to it and quoting it while listening to it really helps… now to just make it a consistent part of my life. I worked on it while exercising this morning and that seemed to work well.

Good job on your goals! I hope you all have a safe and nice trip!

This may be out of line to ask this, but I see your note to write a love note to Jesse every week. Can you give an explanation, or write a post perhaps, on what it is you do to check that one off of your list weekly? Does it vary, ect? You may have already discussed this and I missed it.

That is great to complete so much from your list. My last two weeks have not gone so smoothly, as I confessed in my blog :). But this is a new week, and I am determined to make it better!

Glad to see you got a lot crossed of your list. I did better last week too. This week I’ll be working on homemade costumes.
