Moving – The Process of Buying and Selling Your Home – Part One
As some of you may know, my husband and I have recently been involved in the process of buying and selling our home. It started early November 2022 and ended in late February 2023. That’s longer than we usually have experienced.
It is currently a hard season to be buying or even selling your home. That doesn’t mean it’s impossible. And our experience, buying our 6th home, has been the worst we have ever had. Don’t let that scare you. We have had experiences that were simple and stress free.

A Friend is one . . .
This is a famous quote from a famous man, William Shakespeare. So what? Well, it’s a wonderful quote and I hope that you have a friend like the one to which he is referring.
This was the quote I had on my Instagram account today. (@kimberlyannedejong) I love this quote. Not everyone has a friend like this. I hope you do. I do. She sticks by me and doesn’t let changes in my life destroy our friendship. Not everyone can do that, but my friend can.
Do you have a friend that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts who you have become, and gently allows you to grow? That is my hope for you. We all need a friend like that. Comment below about your friend that you can’t live without.

My 2023 Goals February Update
My 2023 Goals List Progress
It’s a different list this year. It’s shorter. I hope it’s more doable if I only focus on three things. I didn’t do so well last year. How did you do? I hope better than me. Here is my February monthly update.
- Walk 1000 miles. Progress: I made reasonable progress, but I’m not 1/6 of the way there. I’ve walked 140.8 miles for the year. Moving helped me add on extra miles. Hopefully, it’s warm enough soon and I’m done unpacking and I can start a regular walking routine.
- Read the Bible in a year. Progress: I’m up to date. My church started this January 1.
- Lose five pounds. Progress: I’m up and down. Currently, I am at 5 pounds down, but I know I need to work harder on that. If I’m going to continue going up and down, I need to be closer to ten pounds down to remain 5 pounds down. These are the same five pounds I didn’t lose last year. We have a class reunion coming up next year so there is more incentive this time around.
So if you have a list, share it with me in the comments below. We can do this together, and hopefully, we all succeed this year. So, really, how did you do last year? And did that change your list for this year – either longer or shorter? Good luck.

My 2023 Goals January Update
My 2023 Goals List Progress
It’s a different kind of list this year. It’s shorter. I hope it’s more doable if I only focus on three things. I didn’t do so well last year. How did you do? I hope better than me. Here is my first monthly update.
- Walk 1000 miles. Progress: I made reasonable progress, but I’m not 1/12 of the way there. I walked 56.8 miles. But I did sign up for a run in February and I’m hoping that gets me excited about entering more.
- Read the Bible in a year. Progress: I’m up to date. My church started this January 1. I didn’t start until January 8, so I had some catching up to do, but I’m there now.
- Lose five pounds. Progress: I’m holding steady at 3 pounds down. Maybe more. These are the same five pounds I didn’t lose last year. We have a class reunion coming up next year so there is more incentive this time around.
So if you have a list, feel free to share it with me in the comments below. We can do this together, and hopefully, we all succeed this year. So, really, how did you do last year? And did that change your list for this year – either longer or shorter? Good luck.
