#26 Read an entire book

Finally, i can say i have taken the time to actually sit down and read an entire book from cover to cover. this is a big accomplishment for me, since im not the typical guy that likes to sit down and read. Even books, magazines or papers that i like to read and are interesting just don't seem to get read completely. reading makes me tired. i can thank my good friend Dave for giving me the book, The Man in the Mirror to read. i did find it interesting, because it was a book that was directed towards the christian male and how he should live his life. granted, it took me a little over 6 months to read it, the goal was accomplished. my next task is to find more books to read and complete them on a much more acceptable level. i actually just bought two more christian books this evening. The Love Dare, from the movie Fireproof and The Purpose Driven Life. Both books seem to be some more incredible reading. i can't wait to get started reading them, especially The Love Dare. stayed tuned for some more posts in the next few months. i know the winter months have been slow and i haven't posted much, but more is to come.

#66 Take a bath instead of a shower once a month for three consecutive months

This will be the last post of 2008. This was something not hard to achieve, but it was more of a quest to get myself to slow down and relax some and enjoy a nice soak in the tub. I just recently closed my retail gift shop, because it had become more of a headache then a joy, so now i can take more time for myself to enjoy life. Every one needs to slow down and enjoy the finer things in life. Im one to know, because i found myself working all the time, whether it was at my full time job or at the store. I will miss my store and serving the public, but it's time for a change and time to move on to new adventures. However for now, i will slow down, enjoy my days off from my full-time job and take one day at at time. I plan to continue to take at least one bath a month, just to keep myself honest and to relax. As for now, stayed tuned to more post and bigger and better things in 2009. HAPPY NEW YEAR! onward........
