My One Word for 2022

Can you guess my one word for 2022?

Happy New Year friends! Can you believe it is already 2022? I feel like 2021 both flew by and drug on like crazy! How is that even possible? We had a bunch of family things happen in 2021 so I am more than happy to move on to the next year. How about you?

Ok, before we go any further, I need to apologize for my absence. I have missed y’all so much but I had to make some things a priority this year. As most of you know, I started my career in real estate in July with Rogers Healy and Associates. Since I was starting my business from the ground up, it was very important that I give it my full attention. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate you all sticking around. You knew I’d come back didn’t you?? Awe, I love you cuties!!

Now that I feel like I have a little bit better handle on real estate, I should be able to get back into sharing so many fun things on here with you. I miss sharing the recipes, crafts and fun life happenings with y’all.

So, let’s catch up friends! How have you been? As I eluded to a little earlier, it has been a heck of a past 6 months for our family. My husbands sweet father passed away at the end of November. He was such a sweet man and loved his family well. It was very sudden so it was horribly gut wrenching but he is now in Heaven so, we are very thankful for that. I ended up getting the vid in December and that was tons of fun. NOT! Actually, I got that monoclonal antibody infusion and I think that helped a ton! I just had a horrible headache and lost my taste and smell. Day three of being sick, I went and picked up my favorite Life in Lilac candle and could not smell it at all! I was so sad! My grandpa had triple bypass a couple months ago so I was in Waco a lot of the time taking care of him. To end out the year, my kiddos lost their sweet grandmother on Dec 26th. She was such a dear woman and will be missed greatly.

Yep, 2021 was a lot! And I am sure I’m missing many other things but those were the big ones. So, to say I am ready for 2022 would be an understatement.

Let’s get to my one word for 2022. Quick question first, do you ever pick one word for your year? I have been doing it for a few years and I really like it. I looked back at my one word for 2021 and it was TRANSFORMATION. Now, looking back, I am able to see why the Lord put that word on my heart. He was going to be totally transforming my life. I never would have thought that He would have called me out of my teaching and coaching career and given me a new career in real estate. WOW! But I have learned that if the Lord speaks, I listen. His plan is always better than mine.

Now, for my one word for 2022. Drumroll please, LOL

EXCEL: to be exceptionally good at or proficient in an activity or subject.

This word truly resonated with me in all facets of my life.

• In real estate, I want to know my craft as well as I can. To be the go-to agent that people can trust.
• In my spiritual life, I want to give my best to my Lord and Savior. I want to read the Bible daily and grow in my relationship to Him.
• With regards to my health, I want to treat my body with respect and give it the best nutrients I can. I want to exercise regularly for my body and mind.
• As a parent, I want to put my children first and guide them the way the Lord would desire.
• As a wife, I want to give my all to my marriage and treat my husband with the utmost love and respect.
• As a friend and sister, I want to be there and love them well. Giving them my best version of me.

Now, these are all goals of mine and I am in no way saying I have these things figured out because I don’t. I am a work in progress for sure. I do my one word for 2022 to keep these things top of mind all year. It gives me a sense of purpose and a vision/goal to attain.
