Goodbye 2025 and it is the Hodgepodge

 

 

Goodbye 2025 and it is the Hodgepodge.

Joyce asks the questions.

We answer the questions.

Click here to join the fun! 

1. Did you make resolutions or set goals for the year we're waving goodbye? How did that work out for you? Will you set any goals for this new year, new season, or new month? Share one or two if you'd like to share.  

 

 I memorized some of my favorite Bible verses. I plan to continue to do that in the new year.

 

2. When did you have the most fun this year?  

 Anytime I spend time with my family. 

Even when helping our oldest son move to his first home, on one of the hottest days of 2025! Hot and sweaty lifting boxes, boxes and more boxes. 

 

 3. What's a song or song lyric you'll associate with 2025? Tell us why. 

It Is Well with My Soul

2025 was a challenging year for my husband and I. I did not share much of those challenges here on the blog, it was a year of "closed doors" several dreams had to be shifted and reevaluated.

 It Is Well with My Soul has always been a favorite. Life can be unpredictable and challenging, but faith and trust in God can help us to overcome hardship and tragedy.  

 

4. Best (or a favorite) bite of something delicious you tasted this year?  

Fresh fish and chips. The fish was fresh from the cold waters of Lake Superior. 

 


 

 5. What do you want to do more of in the new year? Less of? 

My husband and I did not have much time to travel this past year, we hope to do more of that in 2026. I hope we have less "closed doors" that caused stress in 2025.

 

  6. Insert your own random thought here. 

 

My New Year Prayer for you ...

God Bless This House

and all that is in it

a garden of flowers

some books for the hours

good health

and

love glorious love

  1. Carla, I am so sorry you had a year that 'closed doors' and that life needed to be re-evaluated. We experienced much of the same thing. Life is just plain hard sometimes.
    I hope you do get to travel more this year. Happy New Year-Sending. you a hug, my WI friend- xo Diana
