day 1

I did nothing- I was so busy, I couldn't do anything but I guess I should try to explain what I am trying to do before I tell you I didn't do it.

I have selected a few rules of life- some areas that I want to improve on.  In order to try and establish some rhythms and intentionality in these areas, I am trying to examine my life- trim the fat so to speak and come up with something realistic and attainable.  The four areas I have decided to work on is the following, in order of importance:

1. Caring for my body: Getting adequate sleep, exercise and practicing healthy eating habits
      - exercise 3 times a week
      - sleep min 7 hours a night
      - eat better

2. Daily Prayer
      - setting aside time such as when I am waiting for Rhys to fall asleep, or early morning when I first wake up

3.  Daily Devotion- trying to keep it fresh and not feel like a chore or something I have to do

4. Having a sabbath- the blackberry will be off from 9:00pm sat to 9:00pm sun

So those are the 4 areas i am working on-  not all at once as to not over exert myself

but as for day 1- I did do my daily prayer and read a short devotional but that was it.  Not much of a start.  But again, its about intentionality and balance.  I need to be patient.
