What To Count

Yesterday, I finally finished one of my time consuming projects--dumping excess files from my computer....over 10,000 of them! A huge project that I put on my 4/15 list.

What's 4/15?  I devote 15 minutes 4 days a week to a project that is on my 4/15 list.  This project has been on there for awhile.  My friend, Steve, told me about this idea.  It has been great to work on projects that are overwhelming.  There are several on my list that will be there forever (or so it seems):  cleaning out my photos, updating my blog, scanning the grand kids drawings, zentangle drawing, and working on my scrapbooks.

My blog has progressed due to spending the maximum of 15 minutes 4 days a week.

While I was cleaning up my files, I found this piece of advice and it is so appropriate during the Christmas season:

What To Count

Count your blessings instead of your crosses;
Count your gains instead of your losses.
Count your joys instead of your woes;
Count your friends instead of your foes.
Count your smiles instead of your tears;
Count your courage instead of your fears.
Count your full years instead of your lean;
Count your kind deeds instead of your mean.
Count your health instead of your wealth;
Count on God instead of yourself.
