In a little over a week Charlie will begin his Homeschooling journey. I wanted to make our classes more fun. I decided to check into Christmas Gifts: for those wanting to make changes in there lives which we could use in our classroom.
I would like to share books for those who like to Journal because you can Journal as a family or children can do this on there own. I want to begin a journal again.
Before I can though I need to take the Depression I have been fighting and make choices about our family and our lives. To help me I will be reading and researching ways to move forward when losing someone we love. Like my dad.
Depression Hates a Moving Target: How Running With My Dog Brought Me Back From the Brink
#1 Best Seller in Bipolar Disorder ─ Run your way to better mental health
It’s never too late to chase your dreams: Before she discovered running, Nita Sweeney was 49-years-old, chronically depressed, occasionally manic, and unable to jog for more than 60 seconds at a time. Using exercise, Nita discovered an inner strength she didn’t know she possessed, and with the help of her canine companion, she found herself on the way to completing her first marathon. In her memoir, Sweeney shares how she overcame emotional and physical challenges to finish the race and come back from the brink.
There’s hope and help on the track: Anyone who has struggled with depression knows the ways the mind can defeat you. However, it is possible to transform yourself with the power of running. You may learn that you can endure more than you think, and that there’s no other therapy quite like pavement beneath your feet.
Depression Hates a Moving Target is a witty and poignant story of rediscovery. Whether you’re born to run or just looking for rebirth, you will:
Be inspired by the powerful story of one woman—and her dog
Cheer on Nita as she endures the challenges of a marathon and a mind in turmoil
And discover the power of running to overcome obstacles

66 Day Journal: A Guided Journal for Creating New Habits
Achieve Your Goal in 66 Days
Create new habits―and stick with them: Routines can be hard to establish. Often, our goals require us to make difficult changes in our daily lives. This daily journal by cutting-edge speaker and bestselling author Matthew Mockridge serves as a “training partner” to help us create and firmly integrate healthy routines into everyday life.
Find passion through practice: We don’t need to find our true passion before we commit to a consistent routine. As readers of the 66 Day Journal will learn, it is only through maintaining regular habits that true passion emerges. When we work hard to become good at something, such as healthy eating, maintaining a regular sleep schedule, or exercising regularly, we’ll find that our passion for the topic grows.
Ask quality questions, have a quality life: If we aren’t asking ourselves the important questions―“What am I proud of? What could I have done better?”―then maintaining healthy habits is harder than ever. This guided journal walks us through the difficult questions we should be asking ourselves every day. The carefully constructed questions combine mindfulness, positive psychology, and proven strategies for increased productivity to help you stay on track.
Dive into Matthew Mockridge’s 66 Day Journal and learn how to:
- Break down overwhelming “marathon” goals into 66 achievable mini goals
- Set a goal using the SMART theory (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Time-bound)
- Visualize where you want to be and work to get there
If you’ve enjoyed titles such as The High Performance Planner, My 66-Day Challenge Habit Tracker and Goal Planner, and Hello New Me, then you’ll love Matthew Mockridge’s 66 Day Journal: A Guided Journal for Creating New Habits.
