farewell 2006
Recap: 2005 was the year of Endurance. 2006 was the year of Victory. The words I believe God gave me for 2007 are Peace and Simplicity. Sounds good to me. I'm ready for some of that.
2006 was the year I became a Mac addict. Yep, it's true. I fell for my little beauties (iMac and MacBook) hook, line, and sinker. There have been moments of frustration, but most of those were because I was still thinking with a Windows brain.
The first three months of 2006 were when I read the entire Bible in 90 days. It was an amazing experience. I'm glad I did it.
2006 was the year I grew in my understanding of how God uses trials and pain in the lives of His children. I particularly found help and guidance in Streams in the Desert, one of the best devotionals I have ever used.
2006 saw the release of two new hardcover novellas and one "redeemed" paperback novel.
I lost about five pounds in March 2006, and at the end of the year, they are still missing. Yea!! However, I wasn't as successful as I wanted to be with my exercise program. It's been hit and miss. Hopefully that will improve in 2007.
Today I wrapped revisions on my final Hart's Crossing novella. {{Huge sigh of relief.}} A nice way to end the old year.
So farewell, 2006. Let's see what the New Year brings.

Happy 2007 to you, Robin! I do pray God brings you the peace and simplicity he has laid on your heart to seek. I have to say, I am looking forward to seeing what you do with your Bible reading this year. I think I enjoy that part of your blog most. I am ready for, but not decided on yet, something new in my Bible study this year.
Blessings,

Because of your inspiration, my husband and I succeeded in reading the NT aloud together in 2006. That might not sound too ambitious to you, but the discipline of doing it as a team was huge for us, and we have you to thank!! We now have to settle on a plan for 2007, or we will do nothing--sigh.
Best, best wishes for the happiest, most peaceful and simple of times.
