The Calendar

I used to get a calendar for Christmas every year.  No need to tell you who gave it to me every year.

I like to hang a calendar in the kitchen to keep track of appointments and important events.  For example, what's written in the square on January 17 is "No school" and "Dr. Appt:  9:20."  (That's the 6 month oncologist appointment.)

So, I bought my own calendar this year.  I wanted to have  one that had nice pictures, since it is hanging on the pantry door in the kitchen.  Previously, I always got a calendar with pictures of puppies.  Now, I love puppies, but after two years, it seems a bit unimaginative to continue to buy a calendar with pictures of puppies.

I found a 50% off sale at Books A Million, so I decided to buy my own calendar for the first time.  After perusing all of the calendars, I decided on one with pictures of lighthouses.  A bonus was it came with "inspirational scriptures to help guide you through each month."

January's inspirational scripture is "O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me..."
Psalm 43:3

Very appropriate since my resolution for this year is to attend church services more often this year.  (I guess, since I've gone once this year, I have almost completed my resolution!)

So, I'm looking forward to reading the inspirational scriptures each month and see how they apply to my life at that particular time.
