Great love stories can blossom from the most unlikely beginnings. For embryo adoption parents Steve and Kari Bagby, love started with a cold shoulder.
"My sister and brother in law were friends with Steve from their church, and they invited him to our family Christmas Eve dinner," Kari remembers. "I ignored Steve because I knew my sister was watching intently to see if we would hit it off, and I was very embarrassed by that, and rather shy."
From Confusion to Wedding Bells
Needless to say, this left Steve feeling more than a little confused. "Are you sure I should pursue a relationship with her?" he asked Kari's brother in law. "She acts like she does not want anything to do with me." But that's all it was: an act. Once other eyes were off of them, Steve and Kari did indeed hit it off. They got married in May 2005, less than a year and a half after that fateful Christmas Eve.
Steve already had two children, Samantha and Steven, from a previous marriage. Klaira, a biological child of Kari and Steve, soon came along to form a family of five. That would expand to six when Josiah, adopted from Ethiopia, joined the Bagbys at five months old in 2008. At that point, Kari and Steve thought they were finished having children.
Only Getting Started
Turns out they were just getting started. "In 2014, we began fasting and praying together about growing our family by two more," Kari recalls. That eventually led to the domestic adoption of Melody, who joined the family at three days old. A few weeks after bringing her home, Steve and Kari tried to conceive and found they could not. They grieved that loss for a few days, then began what they thought would be another domestic adoption. But a surprise was in store.
"Six months after beginning that adoption process, we saw a post from the National Embryo Donation Center on Facebook. We were pleasantly surprised to learn we could possibly walk another pregnancy journey and adopt all at the same time through embryo adoption," Kari says. "Giving one or more embryos a chance at life was a fantastic miracle that we had not heard about prior to 2016."
Embryo Adoption Makes Six
For this family, who already had children through natural conception, international adoption and domestic adoption, it was embryo adoption that led to the birth of their sixth child. Ahana was born in fall 2018 as a result of Steve and Kari's frozen embryo transfer at the NEDC. "She was a frozen embryo for six years, and is healthy and beautiful," Steve and Kari say. "It's surreal that she is here with us after all the prayers and waiting. Jesus truly is in the business of miracles, and we are grateful to have walked this embryo adoption journey. Our lives would be incomplete without these kiddos."
More to Come
Believe it or not, it looks like the Bagby family will be growing some more. Steve and Kari are in the process of adopting Melody's year-old half-sister. This family and its capacity to love just keeps expanding. Steve's glad he kept pursuing Kari, even in the face of a cold shoulder. We at the NEDC are honored to be one of the many paths to parenthood the Bagbys have taken in their amazing story. "We are blessed to have had the experience of working with the NEDC," Steve and Kari say. "They will forever be a part of our life journey." It's a journey that's been beautiful, wild and unpredictable. With elements like that, no wonder this love story has turned out so incredibly well.

Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos has been named the Footballer of the Year for the first time by sports writers in Germany.
Kroos, 28, was a part of the Madrid side that claimed a third successive Champions League title and also won the UEFA Super Cup, Spanish Super Cup and Club World Cup.
Despite a disappointing World Cup with Germany, Kroos landed 185 of the 475 votes cast by the Association of German Sports Journalists (VDS), in conjunction with football magazine Kicker. Freiburg striker Nils Petersen came second and Schalke defender Naldo finished third.
"It is and always will be an honour to be Footballer of the Year," Kroos told Kicker. "This is a prize that is not easy to get, and not everyone gets."
Former Bayern Munich boss Jupp Heynckes beat Schalke's Domenico Tedesco to win the Coach of the Year award.
"I am very pleased that I have been voted Coach of the Year by journalists," said Heynckes. "My big compliment goes to those who did not vote for me because there are many good young coaches in the Bundesliga who also deserve this honour."
Asked about Kroos, he added: "When I got word from Kicker that Toni Kroos was voted Footballer of the Year, I was very happy for him. More so because — I can say in all modesty — I helped in his career.
"In my long career as a coach I had a tremendous number of talented players, but with Toni Kroos I quickly felt he was willing to take the professional path.
"Not only did he listen to and internalise what he was told, he also implemented instructions. He maintained this behaviour for years and the result is a great career."
Lyon's Dzsenifer Marozsan picked up the women's Footballer of the Year award for the second time in succession after success in the Champions League.

It seems like that's how many different weight loss and nutrition programs are floating around nowadays. From vegan to Atkins, they all make claims and have their ideas about why they are right in the absolute.
Here's the thing. Most of us aren't absolutes. Most of us don't make dietary decisions and then never waiver. AND EVEN IF WE DID, we are not all alike AND we do change over time and so does our level of activity.
What one person needs to eat in order to improve their health may be very different from what their friend or neighbor needs to eat. What you need to eat today to improve your health may be different than what you need to eat a year or ten years from now.
So, now that you are in the abyss of uncertainty about what to eat (because some guy who wrote this blog that you're reading is basically saying you can't just pick up some diet plan and trust it is the right thing for you) be reassured that there are some fundamental principles that can guide you to healthier choices.
Here are some facts to help you:
So, what can you do about it? Getting rid of inflammation solves many health problems. Even better, getting rid of inflammation BEFORE problems arise PREVENTS problems. In fact, contrary to popular belief, eating fat does not necessarily make you fat nor does it cause inflammation in the long run. (Note: all macronutrients; fat, carbohydrates and protein cause short-term inflammation just after eating.)1
When you decrease your carbohydrate intake enough, however, your body goes into a state of burning fat as its primary energy source. The word for this is "ketosis." A ketogenic diet is one that brings people into ketosis. While I don't believe what-so-ever that health requires being in ketosis all of the time, a person's ability to function in ketosis and regularly be in ketosis certainly contributes to their health.
How to start:
How much of the artificial and carb heavy foods should you get rid of? The answer to this question is, "How much inflammation and health risk do you want to get rid of?" The more you want to lower inflammation and health risks, the more of these you need to remove from your life - at least most of the time. Think about getting your daily carbohydrate intake to around 25 grams or less.
Do beware that eating a high protein diet will keep you out of ketosis because your body burns extra protein by turning it into sugars. So, eating too much protein causes inflammation just like carbohydrates do. Furthermore, being on a ketogenic diet does not have to be meat based. It could even be vegan. The key is keeping the sugars and other inflammatory foods out of your diet. Some studies have even shown that the glycemic index of foods is individual dependent. This means that what is a high glycemic food (meaning it triggers a bigger insulin response) to one person may be a lower glycemic food to another.
In summary: There is no doubt that nutrition is complex. The above outlined facts are dealing ONLY with the macromolecules; carbohydrates, protein and fat. Yet, by keeping the amount of carbohydrates low, the level of proteins moderate and the amount of fat as the biggest form of calorie consumption, you will improve your health. If you like meat and notice you feel and function better with meat in your diet, then your consumption of meat can fall into these guidelines. If you love vegetables and/or you don't like meat and/or you have moral guidelines that keep you from eating meat then your diet can still fit within these guidelines. Of course, this is easier if you are a vegetarian who eats eggs and dairy (as long as you are not allergic to dairy, preferably, non-pasteurized dairy).
And last, your food choices are further complicated by any food allergies you have.
Want to find out if you are addicted to carbs and if they are affecting your health? Send us an email to: firstname.lastname@example.com and let us know you'd like us to send you the Two Week Carb Addiction Test handout. It's our gift to you for caring about your health.

Some Good effects of Diesel Generators:
Good life anticipation: A liquid frozen diesel generator will preceding longer than a gas powered generator. A properly serviced generator should give you up to 20,000 hours of service contrast to roughly about 6000 hours for a gas powered unit.
Diesel Fuel is less expensive: Prices will vary based on your location. Most generator locates are designed for off-road use and are accomplished of running with the use of 'construction grade' diesel which is frequently an additional cost effective fuel.
Cold temperature charitable: Diesel fuel can effortlessly operate in cold level temperatures with the use of fuel additives.
Diesel fuel is safer: Due to its low down spark point it is hard to locate diesel fuel alight. The hazard of fire or blast is significantly reduced.
Efficient Consumption: In the extended run they will outpace an exchange fuel source generator such as gas.

You don't have to be a pro to earn some money riding your bicycle. All it takes is a good employer, such as the creative and advertising agency Make Collective. The New Zealand company is giving its employees NZD$5 for each day they cycle to work. If they keep up the habit for six months, the reward doubles to NZD$10 per day.
Tim Chesney, the owner of the company, said he hoped the scheme would encourage a longer-term trend, "rather than just getting someone to bike to work once".
"For a while I had been thinking it would be great to incentivise cycling in some way. I'm a really keen cyclist [and] cash is clearly the most obvious incentive," Chesney said in an interview for stuff.co.nz. "My gut instinct is that it could be something really good for the workplace. I know for myself I show up feeling a lot more energised, my blood is already flowing."
The money earned by cycling is accumulated and paid to the employees as a cash bonus at the end of the year.
"We have a time-tracker for work, so we now have a task in the tracker where you just track an hour when you bike to work," Chesney said. "Everyone can see everyone's scores, so at the end of the year we tally it up."
Make Collective developer Elliot Gilmore is one of the employees who got inspired and started biking to work after the scheme was launched. He says it has been hard so far.
"Recovering once I get to work is the hardest part, but I need to ride more for health anyway," he said. "A bad back kept me out of the gym, plus I find if you have a gym membership, you kind of think, 'oh yeah, I could go tomorrow'."
What do you think of such a scheme? Let us know in the comments!

Family Lawyer Arizona
What You Need to Know About Changing Child Support Orders
If you have an existing child support agreement and you'd like to have it changed, you may need a family lawyer Arizona parent's trust on your side.
Many situations can leave you wanting your child support agreement changed.
Fortunately, you can go about this in one of two different ways, both of which an Arizona family lawyer at Hildebrand Law, PC may be able to help.
We hope you find the below information helpful in deciding what you'd like to do about your child support.
When you're ready to move forward with a decision, give a family lawyer in Arizona a call at (480)305-8300 today.
Agreeing to Modify the Support Agreement
Your family lawyer Arizona may tell you first to try and work with your ex to come to some agreement for your children.
In some cases, this isn't an option, but it is something your lawyer may discuss with you.
Once you and the other parent agree on an amount and the terms, you may want to go before a judge and ask them to approve of the changes to protect yourself moving forward.
This should be a straightforward process unless the amount is below state guidelines, which will require you to explain why that number makes sense for you and your children.
Asking the Court to Modify the Support Agreement
If working with your ex to agree on new terms for child support isn't an option or doesn't work out, you have to ask for a court hearing.
In this hearing, you and your ex may both need to argue in favor of the amount you each think is appropriate and why.
Your family lawyer Arizona respects may help you build your argument as to why the agreement should be modified.
In most cases, you have to show how your situation (or your ex's) has changed since the court made the order.
Depending on the reasoning behind the modification, the court may rule for a temporary or permanent change. A temporary change may occur if:
- There is a medical emergency with the child
- You are temporarily unable to pay the specified amount in full
- The recipient parent has a temporary medical or financial hardship
A permanent modification order may be made if:
- Either parent changes or loses a job resulting in a drastic change in income
- Either parent gets remarried, and their household income increases drastically
- The cost of living increases significantly
- One of the parents become disabled
- The child's expenses and needs change dramatically
- Child support laws vary
Your family lawyer Arizona relies on may warn you that a permanent change may remain until you no longer have to pay child support or until the order is modified again at a later date.
As you can see, modifying an existing child support ruling can be a bit of a process, but it is necessary in some cases.
Call a family law lawyer in Phoenix and Scottsdale Arizona residents would recommend from Hildebrand Law, PC at (480)305-8300 today.

There are several different revenue models driving fourth generation Long Term Evolution spectrum decisions.
For some carriers, the issue is simply a need for additional capacity.
Though carriers expect and hope that some incremental revenue can be generated, the strategic issue simply is that more spectrum is required, with or without the expectation of immediate net revenue growth from "new services."
The ability to support current customers and demand is reason enough to add more capacity.
In a few cases, 4G has additionally had at least a temporary perceived advantage. Sprint thought its embrace of WiMAX was that sort of decision, allowing it to move first and uniquely in the 4G services market.
In the United Kingdom, EE was able to launch 4G in former 3G spectrum, before the holding of 4G auctions or the building of the new networks.
For some attacking carriers, 4G is a weapon to continue a price assault, as Free Mobile is doing.
Longer term, some carriers also think 4G could enable unicast video services.
Still, contestants sometimes have paid too much to acquire assets. That was true of some Western European operators who, in retrospect, paid too much for 3G spectrum.
Service providers have become wary of such excesses, and auctions for fourth generation Long Term Evolution spectrum, while high in some cases, have not reached levels seen in a few 3G auctions.
But even "rational" decisions can be uncertain, in highly competitive markets.
In the case of a few 3G auctions, one might argue the problem was not the high cost of spectrum, but the low amount of new revenue, and the delay in "discovering" important new apps, which wound up being mobile email, and then mobile Internet access and then personal Wi-Fi hotspots.
In that regard, the danger with LTE auction prices is not so much the absolute cost of new spectrum, which is in some ways a necessary precondition for remaining in business in the future.
The danger is that that increased outlays for spectrum are not fully offset by new revenue streams, or at least higher revenue streams, even if important new apps do not appear immediately.
In markets where customers assume their is a price premium for getting access to LTE's faster speeds and lower latency, the revenue model is clear. The bigger problem is markets where LTE investments are made, but there is no pricing premium.
That isn't to say there is no value. Faster speeds and lower latency might well discourage customer churn. But if all major competitors in a market can offer LTE, then the value as a marketing platform is reduced.
Faster networks have value, to be sure. But it is hard to measure the competitive value if all service providers also offer faster speeds.
In the past, supporters of LTE have argued that the real immediate value is the greater bandwidth efficiency of 4G, compared to 3G, used to support data bandwidth. Nor is there doubt that ownership of more spectrum, in markets where demand for data access is growing, has value.
But is has to be disconcerting that LTE access carries no price premium at all, for at least some providers.
French mobile service provider Free Mobile has added an LTE 4G high-speed broadband service to its Free Mobile package without raising the price, in a market where its chief rivals charge a premium for using the 4G network.
Iliad says its monthly Free Mobile subscription remains unchanged at 19.99 euros a month including 4G, without a long-term contract. The no incremental charge policy has a clear logic, of course.
Illiad expects it can use its pricing advantage to further attack the bigger carriers, taking market share. So in the case of Free Mobile, the revenue model is "new subscribers," not incremental revenue from offering customers a faster network.
Recently, mobile operators in India have faced the problem of revenues insufficient to allow recovery of investments, as well, unrelated to the particular problem of spectrum costs.
India's Bharti Airtel, for example, bought Zain's African operations in 2010 for $10.7 billion, considered a high price at the time, to gain access to the high growth potential in Africa. But competition has lead to low retail prices.
Bharti's average revenue per user grew eight percent from 2012 levels to 192 rupees in India and fell 10 percent in Africa.
For the moment, though, the big incremental decisions turn on spectrum investments.
Since no company invests capital without anticipating a return, every buyer of LTE spectrum has an explicit revenue model. In some cases, there also is an operating cost model (LTE offers lower cost per bit).
But what one hopes is not the case that investments in LTE, or investments in fiber to the home, are not ulimately a matter of "you get to keep your business." In other words, as many fiber to home investments have largely been made to trade market share with a key competitor, it is not always the case that a traditional return on investment thesis drives the decision.
Instead, the investments are defensive in nature, more a strategic investment than a traditional "high return on investment" decision.

A SHEPHERD LOOKS AT PSALM 23 #6 HE LEADETH ME IN THE PATHS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS FOR HIS NAME SAKE SHEEP ARE NOTORIOUS creatures of habit. If left to themselves they will follow the same trails until they become ruts; graze the same hills until they turn to desert wastes; pollute their own ground until it is corrupt with disease and parasites. Many of the world's finest sheep ranges have been ruined beyond repair by over-grazing, poor management and indifferent or ignorant sheep owners. One need only travel through countries like Spain, Greece, Mesopotamia, North Africa and even parts of the western United States and New Zealand or Australia to see the havoc wrought by sheep on the land: Some areas in these countries which were formerly productive grasslands have gradually been reduced to ravaged wastelands. Too many sheep over too many years under poor management have brought nothing but poverty and disaster in their wake. A commonly held, but serious misconception about sheep is that they can just "get along anywhere." The truth is quite the reverse. No other class of livestock requires more careful handling, more detailed direction, than do sheep. No doubt David, as a shepherd himself, had learned this firsthand from tough experience. He knew beyond dispute that if the flock was to flourish and the owner's reputation was to be held in high esteem as a good manager, the sheep had to be constantly under his meticulous control and guidance. The first sheep farm I purchased as a young man was a piece of derelict land that had been "sheeped to death." An absentee owner had rented the place to a tenant. The latter simply loaded the ranch with sheep, then left them pretty much to their own ways. The result was utter desolation. Fields became so overgrazed and impoverished they would grow little but poverty grass. Little sheep trails had deteriorated into great gullies. Erosion on the slopes was rampant and the whole place was ravaged almost beyond repair. All of this happened simply because the sheep, instead of being managed and handled with intelligent care, had been left to struggle for themselves - left to go their own way, left to the whims of their own destructive habits. The consequence of such indifference is that the sheep gnaw the grass to the very ground until even the roots are damaged. I have seen places in Africa where grass roots were pawed out of the soil, leaving utter barrenness behind. Such abuse means loss of fertility and the exposure of the land to all the ravages of erosion. Because of the behavior of sheep and their preference for certain favored spots, these well-worn areas become quickly infested with parasites of all kinds. In a short time a whole flock can thus become infected with worms, nematodes, and scab. The final upshot is that both land and owner are ruined while the sheep become thin, wasted, and sickly. The intelligent shepherd is aware of all this. Not only just for the welfare of his sheep and the health of his land, but also for his own sake and reputation as a rancher, he must take the necessary precautions to safeguard against these adverse animal traits. Such habits, in themselves, comprise very serious hazards. The greatest single safeguard which a shepherd has in handling his flock is to keep them on the move. That is to say, they dare not be left on the same ground too long. They must be shifted from pasture to pasture periodically. This prevents over-grazing of the forage. It also avoids the rutting of trails and erosion of land from over-use. It forestalls the reinfestation of the sheep with internal parasites or disease, since the sheep move off the infested ground before these organisms complete their life cycles. In a word - there must be a pre-determined plan of action, a deliberate, planned rotation from one grazing ground to another in line with right and proper principles of sound management. This is precisely the sort of action and the idea David had in mind when he spoke of being led in paths of righteousness. In this following of a precise plan of operation lies the secret for healthy flocks and healthy land. Here is the key to successful sheep husbandry. The owner's entire name and reputation depends on how effectively and efficiently he keeps his charges moving onto wholesome, new, fresh forage. The one who directs his flock along this course is sure of success. Casting my mind's eye back over the years that I kept sheep, no other single aspect of the ranch operations commanded more of my careful attention than this moving of the sheep. It literally dominated all my decisions. Not a day went by but what I would walk over the pasture in which the sheep were feeding to observe the balance between its growth and the grazing pressure upon it. As soon as the point was reached where I felt the maximum benefit for both sheep and land was not being met, the sheep were moved to a fresh field. On the average this meant they were put onto new ground almost every week. In very large measure the success I enjoyed in sheep ranching must be attributed to this care in managing my flock. A similar procedure applies to flocks of sheep taken out on summer range in the hills by itinerant herders. They deliberately lead or drive their sheep onto fresh range almost every day. A pattern of grazing is worked out carefully in advance so that the sheep do not feed over the same ground too long or too frequently. Some shepherds set up a base camp and fan out from it in wide circles, like the lobes of a clover leaf, covering new pasturage each day, returning to camp at night. Coupled with this entire concept of management, there is of course the owner's intimate knowledge of his pastures. He has been all over this ground again and again. He knows its every advantage and every drawback. He knows where his flock will thrive and he is aware of where the feed is poor. So he acts accordingly. A point worthy of mention here is that whenever the shepherd opens a gate into a fresh pasture the sheep are filled with excitement. As they go through the gate even the staid old ewes will often kick up their heels and leap with delight at the prospect of finding fresh feed. How they enjoy being led onto new ground. Now as we turn to the human aspect of this theme we will be astonished at some of the parallels. As mentioned earlier it is no mere whim on God's part to call us sheep. Our behavior patterns and life habits are so much like that of sheep it is well nigh embarrassing. First of all Scripture points out that most of us are a stiff-necked and stubborn lot. We prefer to follow our own fancies and turn to our own ways. "All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way" (Isaiah 53:6). And this we do deliberately, repeatedly even to our own disadvantage. here is something almost terrifying about the destructive self-determination of a human being. It is inexorably interlocked with personal pride and self-assertion. We insist we know what is best for us even though the disastrous results may be self-evident. Just as sheep will blindly, habitually, stupidly follow one another along the same little trails until they become ruts that erode into gigantic gullies, so we humans cling to the same habits that we have seen ruin other lives. Turning to "my own way" simply means doing what I want. It implies that I feel free to assert my own wishes and carry out my own ideas. And this I do in spite of every warning. We read in Proverbs 14:12 and 16:25, "There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death." In contrast to which Christ the Good Shepherd comes gently and says, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me" (John 14:6). "I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly" (John 10:10). The difficult point is that most of us don't want to come. We don't want to follow. We don't want to be led in the paths of righteousness. Somehow it goes against our grain. We actually prefer to turn to our own way even though it may take us straight into trouble. The stubborn, self-willed, proud, self-sufficient sheep that persists in pursuing its old paths and grazing on its old polluted ground will end up a bag of bones on ruined land. The world we live in is full of such folk. Broken homes, broken hearts, derelict lives and twisted personalities remind us everywhere of men and women who have gone their own way. We have a sick society struggling to survive on beleaguered land. The greed and selfishness of mankind leaves behind a legacy of ruin and remorse. Amid all this chaos and confusion Christ the Good Shepherd comes and says, "If any man will follow me, let him deny himself daily and take up his cross and follow me." But many don't want to do this. We don't want to deny ourselves, give up our right to make our own decisions - we don't want to follow; we don't want to be led. Of course, most of us, if confronted with this charge, would deny it. We would assert vehemently that we are "led of the Lord." We would insist that we would follow wherever He leads. We sing songs to this effect and give mental assent to the idea. But as far as actually being led in paths of righteousness is concerned, precious few of us follow that path. Actually this is the pivot point on which a Christian either "goes on" with God or at which point he "goes back" from following on. There are many, willful, wayward, indifferent, self-interested Christians who cannot really be classified as followers of Christ. There are relatively few diligent disciples who forsake all to follow the Master. Jesus never made light of the cost involved in following Him. In fact He made it painfully clear that it was a rugged life of rigid self-denial. It entailed a whole new set of attitudes. It was not the natural, normal way a person would ordinarily live and this is what made the price so prohibitive to most people. In brief, seven fresh attitudes have to be acquired. They are the equivalent of progressive forward movements onto new ground with God. If one follows them they will discover fresh pasturage; new, abundant life; and increased health, wholesomeness and holiness, in their walk with God. Nothing will please Him more and most certainly no other activity on our part will or can result in as great benefit to other lives around us. 1. Instead of loving myself most I am willing to love Christ best and others more than myself. Now love in a scriptural sense is not a soft, sentimental emotion. It is a deliberate act of my will. It means that I am willing to lay down my life, lay myself out, put myself out on behalf of another. This is precisely what God did for us in Christ. "Hereby perceive [understand] we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us" (I John 3:16). The moment I deliberately do something definite either for God or others that costs me something, I am expressing love. Love is "self-lessness" or "self-sacrifice" in contradistinction to "selfishness." Most of us know little of living like this or being "led" in this right way. But once a person discovers the delight of doing something for others, he has started through the gate being led into one of God's green pastures. 2. Instead of being one of the crowd I am willing to be singled out, set apart from the gang. Most of us, like sheep, are pretty gregarious. We want to belong. We don't want to be different in a deep, distinctive way, though we may wish to be different in minor details that appeal to our selfish egos. But Christ pointed out that only a few would find His way acceptable. And to be marked as one of His would mean a certain amount of criticism and sarcasm from a cynical society. Many of us don't want this. Just as He was a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief, so we may be. Instead of adding to the sorrows and sadness of society we may be called on to help bear some of the burdens of others, to enter into the suffering of others. Are we ready to do this? 3. Instead of insisting on my rights I am willing to forego them in favor of others. Basically this what the Master meant by denying one's self. It is not easy, nor normal, nor natural to do this. Even in the loving atmosphere of the home, self-assertion is pretty evident and the powerful exercise of individual rights is always apparent. But the person who is willing to pocket his pride, to take a back seat, to play second fiddle without a feeling of being abused or put upon has gone a long way onto new ground with God. There is a tremendous emancipation from "self" in this attitude. One is set free from the shackles of personal pride. It's pretty hard to hurt such a person. He who has no sense of self-importance cannot be offended or deflated. Somehow such people enjoy a wholesome outlook of carefree abandon that makes their Christian lives contagious with contentment and gaiety. 4. Instead of being "boss" I am willing to be at the bottom of the heap. Or to use sheep terminology, instead of being "Top Ram" I'm willing to be a "tailender." When the desire for self-assertion, self-aggrandizement, self-pleasing gives way to the desire for simply pleasing God and others, much of the fret and strain is drained away from daily living. A hallmark of the serene soul is the absence of "drive," at least, "drive" for self-determination. The person who is prepared to put his personal life and personal affairs in the Master's hands for His management and direction has found the place of rest in fresh fields each day. These are the ones who find time and energy to please others. 5. Instead of finding fault with life and always asking "Why?" I an willing to accept every circumstance of life in an attitude of gratitude. Human beings, being what they are, somehow feel entitled to question the reasons for everything that happens to them. In many instances life itself becomes a continuous criticism and dissection of one's circumstances and acquaintances. We look for someone or something on which to pin the blame for our misfortunes. We are often quick to forget our blessings, slow to forget our misfortunes. But if one really believes his affairs are in God's hands, every event, no matter whether joyous or tragic, will be taken as part of God's plan. To know beyond doubt that He does all for our welfare is to be led into a wide area of peace and quietness and strength for every situation. 6. Instead of exercising and asserting my will, I learn to cooperate with His wishes and comply with His will. It must noted that all the steps outlined here involve the will. The saints from earliest times have repeatedly pointed out that nine-tenths of religion, of Christianity, of becoming a true follower, a dedicated disciple, lies in the will. When a man or woman allows his will to be crossed out, cancelling the great "I" in their decisions, then indeed the Cross has been applied to that life. This is the meaning of taking up one's cross daily - to go to one's own death - no longer my will in the matter but His will be done. 7. Instead of choosing my own way I am willing to choose to follow in Christ's way; simply to do what He asks me to do. This basically is simple, straightforward obedience. It means I just do what He asks me to do. I go where He invites me to go. I say what He instructs me to say. I act and re-act in the manner He maintains is in my own best interest as well as for His reputation (if I'm His follower). Most of us possess a formidable amount of factual information on what the Master expects of us. Precious few have either the will, intention or determination to act on it and comply with His instructions. But the person who decides to do what God asks him has moved onto fresh ground which will do both him and others a world of good. Besides, it will please the Good Shepherd no end. God wants us all to move on with Him. He wants us to walk with Him. He wants it not only for our welfare but for the benefit of others as well as His own dear reputation. Perhaps there are those who think He expects too much of us. Maybe they feel the demands are too drastic. Some may even consider His call impossible to carry out. It would be if we had to depend on self-determination, or self-discipline to succeed. But if we are in earnest about wanting to do His will, and to be led, He makes this possible by His own gracious Spirit who is given to those who obey (Acts 5:32). For it is He who works in us both will and to do of His good pleasure (Philippians 2:13). ............... To be continued

I am an improvising musician, performer and film maker. I work primarily with sound or from sound. I am interested in the live experience of performance and the resulting artefacts that these moments can produce – something beyond simple documentation. I seek with in my work to communicate an inner mood, feeling, emotion something that is deeply human but also intangible, that perhaps can not be put into words. Performance and improvisation invite connections. My work is about physicality, presence and corporality and connection.
These things in turn also lead me to prefer analogue over digital. Sound, dance, the scenic – fills the space, it is also fragile and intangible, it is difficult to capture, it does not really exist, yet it is present. Improvisation is a way of being with things as they are, being open to chance, randomness and allowing an unfolding and a discovery rather forcing or preconceiving an idea. Bio – I have been playing with music and sound since I was 13 – I learnt to play the Trumpet and Bass and have played with a number of eccentric, and eminently "unsuccessful" bands.
I became interested in theatre and ran away to the circus – Via chance and happenstance I ended up teaching at circus space for 6 years, directed many shows , including the British premier of Mauricio Kagels Variete for the Almedia Opera Festival, and became the head of acting for the million dome central show. I now find myself Immersed in exploring sound and improvising

Oops! It looks like you are using an outdated browser. In order to view our brand new website and it's amazing features please upgrade your browser.
We're all about helping you live your best life, in every way possible! So we thought we'd take the chance to share some of the tips we've learnt from juggling so many different things in our lives. From running a business to working additional side projects and managing our team, life can certainly get busy. Here are our 5 top tips that help us stay sane. We hope they help you embrace better organisation in your own life – whether you're at uni, working full time, or starting a business of your own!
We love having a wall calendar in the office as it helps the whole team have a visual timetable to work to. But whether you prefer a digital calendar, a paper diary or something else entirely, the most important thing is to commit to your chosen calendar tool. Write down appointments as soon as you make them (never leave this to later as there is always a chance you will forget!). Check in at the beginning of each week to review your schedule and make sure you're prepared for the week ahead. That way there can never be any last minute surprises.
Organised people make notes! So get in the habit of taking a pen and a notepad wherever you go. You never know when you will need to write yourself a reminder or jot down ideas and inspirations. While we're on the topic, we're a huge fan of keeping a to-do list. It's a great way to organise your priorities, differentiating between urgent tasks and things that can wait until later.
We're so interested in the routines and habits of successful people. One thing we noticed is that high-performers tend to make the most of their mornings. For many people, the first couple of hours in the day are the most productive, so why not try getting up a little earlier and making the most of this time? There are plenty of things you can do to make your mornings more productive, including starting the day with a workout and a proper breakfast. If you struggle to get out of bed early, there are some tricks you can do to make life easier. For example, get your outfit ready the night before (both workout and work clothes) and prep an easy breakfast, like overnight oats or a smoothie.
How many emails do you have sitting in your inbox right now? 100? 1000? More? We're big fans of using folders to organise our emails, keeping our main inbox clear. If you're not sure where to start, sit down and make a list of the main areas of responsibility in your life, for example family, uni, work etc. You can even make sub-folders within the main categories. Once you start using this filing system, not only will it be easier to find important emails, you'll be able to tackle new emails more easily. While we're on the topic, don't use your inbox as your to-do list. Either delete or action an email straight away, rather than leave it languishing. It might also help to set yourself a dedicated time each day to action emails, rather than letting them distract you all day long, so turn off your notifications.
If you haven't already, check out Marie Kondo's The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up. We love her philosophy of keeping it simple. When your home space is clutter-free and organised, you will feel like you can achieve anything! Around once every 3 months, we love having a big clear out of our homes, donating anything we no longer need to charity.
One thing that really helps us is having a dedicated space for every object in our home, using storage solutions to keep similar items together. Drawer dividers and boxes are great for keeping smaller items from getting mixed together. And of course, tackle your wardrobe. It's amazing how much time you will save getting ready each morning when you can clearly see your clothes, shoes and accessories.
We hope these tips inspire you to embrace better organisation in your home! We'd love you to share your tips with us so head over to our Private Facebook Community!

Study for what?
Posted April 8, 2016on:
I like this article a lot, from a father, when seeing his son feeling dishearten after failed in exam for the first time, he wrote this.
He is an English lecturer now, and during schooling time, he never passed his English paper. He did a lot of thinking about why we need to study? For the marks? The exams? For our parents? For ourselves? Or to gain knowledge? He said, if he think that studying is just for exam, then he would have dropped English subject long time ago and his life would have been different now. Instead, everyday he gathered courage to go to school, telling himself that mark is not important, exam is not important, what is important is the hope to read more, to learn more and to gain more knowledge. He chose not to let the marks teacher gave bother him. He started to read English novels, looked up vocabularies in dictionary, memorized the grammar rules, and "I do not read for exam!"

Girls, mommy shared the same hope from this uncle: "孩子,你不是为这个分数念书的!"

Three years separate my sons. My oldest, Drew, graduated from the Little League® program last year. Our league doesn't have a division beyond Majors, so he's playing for a few other teams in the area. He's doing great there, just like he did during his Little League days. As a Little Leaguer®, he played up in Majors as a 9-year-old, made the All-Star team each year, and was the best player in the league his final year. Drew did not get his talents from any family gene. His success came from hard work.
My other son, Brayden, is ten. He's never shown the dedication of his older brother, but I knew he had the ability to be just as good. The problem is that he just hasn't shown the interest. Looking back, though, I guess the real problem is that since he's been six, I've pushed to get him to be the baseball player his brother is. I've done all the things with Brayden that I did with Drew... regular visits to the cages, private pitching lessons, baseball camps, sharing videos of drills. Nothing worked. Baseball never seemed important to him. But, I kept pushing. Read More

C Duncan has announced a new album, Health, and is teasing news about a UK tour to boot, Getintothis' Paul Fitzgerald has the details.
March 29 sees the release of Health on Fat Cat Records, the third album from C Duncan.
He's breaking new and interesting ground. This release marks a big change for him, as it finds him leaving the bedroom studio behind to work with other producers, engineers and musicians (including both his classical musician parents at one point).
The difference in the results of that collaboration is clear from the outset, it feels like he's pushing himself, testing himself to refine the sound and explore writing in new and possibly challenging ways.
For someone who has accomplished so much by working solo on his first two beautiful and magisterial releases, entering this new territory must have been a richly rewarding experience.
The grandeur of the sound, the sweeping rich harmonies, the music-as-painting feel of C Duncan's work is given extra warmth and depth on this record, presumably held by the difference in the writing and recording methods, and his wilful giving up of some of the control, the chance to bounce ideas around with other people.
It's a very arty album, in the very best possible sense.
Threshold and 6 Music face off : will the grassroots festival endure?
Health takes on a slightly darker tone in parts, lyrically speaking, than his previous work. The title track and current single (produced by Elbow's Craig Potter and with Guy Garvey lending a hand with the vocals) finds him discussing with raw honesty the breakup of a previous relationship.
The intensity of that relationship finding its resolve in its necessary ending.
An ending for the good of the mental health of both parties.
C Duncan has gone deeper, wider and taller with this superb new record, and things are just that bit richer and better for it. Have a listen for yourself.
Catch him on tour across the UK in a venue near you.

Joys of la cueillet
..."Edible wild plants are almost never bland. They have bright, exceedingly complex flavors that leap onto your tongue and from there into your brain, informing your inventory of aromas and flavors forever after. And after...well, there's no going back! You come to crave that kind of vibrancy that is due to a combination of simple great taste and--who knows?--your body's registering that it has just received a fabulous bouquet of potent nutrients! That's how I perceive my intoxication with wild plants, anyway."...
If you can read French and live in France (this means you, Ian!) then this sounds like a treasure-
..."the title of my current bible is Sauvages et Comestibles--Herbes, Fleurs, et Petites Salades by Marie-Claude Paume. That translates as "Wild and Edible--Herbs, Flowers, and Little Salads. A native of Provence, Mme. Paume's manual is illustrated with her own unmistakeable photos of edible wild plants. I keep her book in my hiking backpack for instant reference, and have committed many of the photos to memory."...
Oh, I would like to meet this woman who expresses my feelings so well -
..."So just what is this curious joy I experience from gathering wild foods? Part of it, admittedly, is sheer gourmandise--my stomach growling at the thought of eating these delicious plants, as well as the culinary stimulation they provide me. But it's more--and more visceral--than that. When I'm wandering a meadow under a blue sky, gathering wild leaves, I experience an animal sort of mindlessness which I find extremely pleasurable. But at the same time, it is a heightened state of mindfulness that I'm in. I'm not only intensely tuned in the visual patterns presented by the plants beneath my feet, but--if even for a few short moments--I get to live not as a human spoiler to nature--a monster smashing about with my heavy carbon footprint--but as a light-treading human in easy coexistence with what nature has to offer. I feel at home on the earth."
Now I am off to the central market to fossick and forage amongst the ingredients of the world...

A new creative hub is on it's way to Coffs Harbour and the Mid North Coast. I have developed a series of workshops to gift the skills of creating and self expression to the next generations. With so many industries and skills closing down in our country and being lost in the noise of social technology, I feel it's really important to provide our children an outlet for their own voices to shine and develop their self confidence.
These workshops will offer expert guidance and recommendations from professional thought leaders and provide a safe community for creative minds to connect. They will be able to share, engage, and plan towards their own future creative endeavours. Our Hub aims to be an avenue to trusted skilled professionals and trade partners that will give the kids across many age groups access to vendors and resources they need to thrive creatively and in the future, professionally should they choose to.

Current version
Kyle Baker, 03/10/2015 02:45 PM
Merge Hosts¶
Merge Hosts and Content Hosts into a single unified presentation. The unification includes all aspects of displayed information and user initiated actions. The primary objective is designing hosts presentation and workflows that will accommodate user needs in a more efficiently and reflect user needs.
Targeted Persona¶System Engineer
Responsible for configuring all of the infrastructure to provision hosts - which includes reprovisioning based on new builds
Responsible for deploying hosts to their portion of the companies managed infrastructure. Hosts are built based on the engineers configurations.
Systems User
(Both System Engineer & System Administrator roles)
Use Cases¶
Owner - David Caplan, Kyle Baker
Status - In Progress
Expected Delivery - 3/16/2015
Blockers - None
Owner - David Caplan, Mike Mccune, Ohad Levy
Status - Not Started
Expected Delivery - TBD
Blockers - Waiting on User Stories
Owner - Kyle Baker
Status - Not Started
Blockers - Waiting on User Stories & Requirements
Last updated TBD - Link to wireframes
Development Stories¶
Owner - Mike Mccune, Ohad Levy
Status - Started based on previous efforts
Expected Delivery - N/A
Blockers - Waiting on Wireframes
- Host entitlement status is a priority
- Context is not important for hosts
- Need a single place where users can view host status and take action on hosts.
- The current process of provisioning a new host does not support the administrator role. Ideally the UI would hide all of the deeper configuration options and surface the options which have been pre configured by the engineer. Users have complained that the process is too complex when in reality the complexity simply exposed to the incorrect user.
- Pre-provisioning setup should include an option to build a boot ISO.
Related Features¶
- Enabling Boot ISO - Feature coming soon
- Host Collections - Feature coming soon
Use Cases¶
Story 1 Host Monitoring
A Systems User (System Engineer & System Administrator roles) would like to have a single place browse and understand the entirety of Linux hosts. (1) They are interested in finding out the status of a host or group of hosts in the infrastructure. (2) If there is an issue or scheduled update the Systems User needs the host's location and (3) to know the hosts software/business purpose.
- What is the status of this host or grouping of hosts?
- 1. Configuration Status
- 2. Last Report or Check In
- 3. Available Errata
- 4. Periodically, Subscription Status
- Where is this host running?
- Capsule Information
- Organization
- Location
- Environment
- Host Group - For networking information
- Host Collection
- What is this host running? Is it performing a critical function?
- Software Installed - OS, Errata
- Puppet Facts
- Content View Version
A Systems User (System Engineer & System Administrator roles), During the identification/troubleshooting/updating process they need to examine the exact specs of a host to determine the best course of action.
- Surface level Information
- OS, mac(s), ip(s), serial number, environment, capsule, host-group (puppet module), organization and location, host collections
- Drill down
- hardware, software, networking, config, events, template(s), meta information, hypervisor
A Systems User (System Engineer & System Administrator roles), During the troubleshooting/updating process I have identified which host or group of hosts I would like to take actions against.
Add or remove errata or packages
- Change the location, organization, environment association
- Change the host-group association
- Change the host-collections association
- Change the subscription status
- Change puppet environment association
- Change compute resource - If deployed on compute resource yet
System Engineer
When new software is released we define builds in the form of requirements/standards. We then present them to stakeholders. We then use the Katello/Foreman workflow process to build a deployable kickstart file. This file is used by the system administrator to stand up a machine.
- This infrastructure is preconfigured by the System Engineer before the host creation process
- Organization, Location, Environment, etc.
- Manage subscriptions and entitled content
- Create, publish, promote Content View
- Create Host Groups
- Set up matcher parametized values when setting up puppet classes
- Create Activation keys
- Add networking services
As a System Administrator I want to easily provision a new host leveraging authorized configuration pre-created by the System Engineer.
- Place in Infrastructure (Location, Environment, Capsule)
- Choose Host-group
- Assign networking services if not pre-configured
- Modify parametized values for puppet classes
- Choose Activation Key - If applicable
- Choose Compute Resource
- Future - Clone an existing host. While creating a new host there should be a button to select a host I want to clone and as a second where I can adapt the pre-filled configurations (e.g. CV, HG, etc.)
- These features should be added as their own feature with their own specific user stories.
- Comparing hosts
- Dynamic host collections
- Bookmark evolution
- Use search and bookmark functionality hosts to create a grouping
- Notes: Do the search and save as host collection
- See the detail of the search (new collection)
- Have search dynamically generate new list every time it runs
- View logs to view what changed
- Term 'Bookmark' is not appropriate there
- Bulk operations against hosts without managing another objects
- Interlinking host objects (clicking a CV shows all the host with that CV) then bookmarking
- Clone existing host
- Clone an existing system. While creating a new host there should be a button to select a system I want to clone and as a second where I can adapt the pre-filled configurations (e.g. CV, HG, etc.)
- History
- As a sysadmin I want to access from a single page the history of events that occurred for a specific system which may include:
- Puppet reports (+ be able to filter for drifts to easily identify changes on the system)
- Remote tasks execution results
- OpenSCAP compliance tests results
- Software management tasks (software installation, errata apply, etc...)
- DH: for each action inside the history I want to see a rollback of this particular action similar to Sat5.
- User stories will be broken down of the into specific actionable tasks to design and develop against.

CL institute Coaching Class in Ranchi for different exam preparation
Education is key to success and it is an undeniable fact. There are so many students out there at various coaching institutes in Ranchi in the fray of competition but how many of them succeed?
Just ask yourself and try to figure out the question. Something else is needed to stand out from others.
CL is a top most and premier institute for preparation of so many different exams. At such a small age students always require proper guidance in their studies. That proper guidance is provided by CL.
CL has been working since 1966 and has helped lakhs of students for preparation of engineering exams till date. The prime focus of CL has always been JEE (main+advanced) exam preparation.
JEE exams preparation
One of the most popular and regarded as best career option at this point of time is of engineering field. For that students need to prepare for JEE mains and advanced exams for getting admission to the topmost and renowned institute engineering institutes of India like IITs, NITs and BITS institute.
How we provide best IIT level coaching
The main focus of CL is IIT level coaching and if you are looking for best IIT coaching institute near Ranchi then CL is the best place for preparation.
- Broad coverage
The syllabus of these exams is somewhat different from subjective exams and this is the one of the main reasons why students fail in these exams. The syllabus of these exams is really extensive and it requires relentless efforts to crack this exam. We here at CL keep focus on this extensive syllabus and cover each and every topic very broadly.
- Special focus on every students
Our motto is to help the students in preparing these exams and we here at CL do every possible thing to achieve this goal. The size of classes here at CL is very manageable and that is why we are able to focus on every single student in the class. We give attention to every single student and handle their queries quite effectively.
- Best faculty
Best guidance is provided by best faculty. We here at CL hire best faculty for preparation of these exams. Almost all our faculty have studied from IITs and NITs. These best faculty always keep in line the preparation of different students. The guidance of best faculty becomes really important at this stage. You do not need to worry about the best faculty. That is our responsibility.
- Regular mock tests
It becomes really important to make students aware of the actual exam environment. For that we organise regular mock tests. Mocks are really important and help students exude more confidence in difficult exam situations.
- Proper mindset
The main thing is that for these exams a proper mindset is needed and we here at CL, the best IIT coaching institute near Ranchi help you to make up your mind very strong for these exams. We help you in sharpening your logical and analytical skills and no other institute focus on these things. These reasoning and thinking skills enhance the ability of the students to solve complex problems with ease and confidence.
- Help in develop special skills
IIT JEE is a very extensive exam and a lot of focus is required in the whole timeframe of exam. So for this reason time management becomes really necessary. We here at CL focus on these things as well. Our faculty help you in learning how to manage time in such stress inducing situations.
Personality development classes are also organized from time from time to help you develop your personal skills. These skills will you a better person and will make you more aware about your own goals. These all things help the students in dealing with the exam more confidently.
Going step by step
Step by step preparation is really important and for that reason classes of X and IX becomes so important. The education system of our country do not expose students to difficult concepts early on but these concepts are introduced suddenly. This makes the life of students tough and some of these students can't cope with the situation and quit.
For very reason we have foundation classes for class IX students as IX class is the base of X class. These foundation classes help students to grab the concepts easily and also help them to preapre for exams like NTSE and science olympiad.
The classes of IX and X are foundation of XI and XII standards but the only thing is that in these standards of Xl and XII the concepts are covered extensively and because of that students become confused and quit.
There are many coaching classes in Ranchi. But we here at CL form that foundation early on and this way students get prepared for exams like KVPY as well.
For any engineering examination preparation CL is on of the best IIT coaching centre in Ranchi. So keep in view our offerings all the time.

If you had asked me a year ago to write a post about meal planning I would have laughed and given you a list of all the places I planned to eat out at for the week. Meal planning was a foreign subject to me. If it didn't involve throwing things into a crockpot or a single pan dish you could slide into the oven then I had no idea how to cook it. Here I am now, a year later, completely transformed, living by a meal plan and loving it so much more than eating out almost daily.
I realized our habit of eating out needed to end when we moved into our home. We were homeowners now with a whole list of hopes and dreams that we wanted to accomplish both for our new home and in our personal lives. Those dollars we had been spending eating out needed to be added elsewhere.
I'd often open my fridge and stare into it until I found a few ingredients to throw together to make a meal. Then I got into the habit of heading to the grocery store weekly and browsing the isles for everything that looked good. I had no true plan. I was just hoping something would stick out to me. While this was better than eating out every day it still wasn't the ideal way to grocery shop or plan our meals for the week so I pushed it a step further and began to meal plan.
Here are 6 steps to help set you in the right direction when it comes to meal planning.
1. Prepare for success
To get ready for meal planning, I went to Walmart and purchased:
- a calendar white board,
- a set of colorful dry erase markers that would magnetize to the fridge,
- a set of cute but simple magnets to go along with all of this.
BEST. INVESTMENT. EVER. These 3 little purchases have completely transformed our families schedule, diet, and lives. I brought them home and used some command Velcro strip that I already had to add the whiteboard to our fridge. That way the calendar would be centrally located in our home and easy for me to consult on a daily basis.
2. Know Your Schedule
Before any true meal planning can be done you need to know your schedule. Will you be out for dinner one night? Do you have an event that goes late and you wouldn't want to cook after coming home from it? Will you be traveling? Know what's going on in your life, write it on the meal plan, and adjust accordingly.
I've found that when you meal plan it's easy to travel without spending a ton because you can buy snacks and plan out where you'll eat ahead of time. Previously, long days or work events meant I would definitely eat out as a reward to myself but now I can plan ahead and put something in the crockpot so I can come how to a nice, warm, homecooked meal that took almost zero effort to create. Write these events and things on your calendar for the entire month so you'll see it constantly. It will help you be more on top of your schedule throughout the month but will also let you know which days need to be a quick and easy meal. (or leftovers)
3. Know Your Favorites
Knowing my favorite meals helps with meal planning. I've realized I have favorite meals to cook and then there are favorite meals to eat. Realizing I have both and adding them throughout the calendar helps keep the foods enjoyable, makes some days extra easy, and also gives me something to look forward to. I also like to know which meals my husband likes so I can try to add some of those to the meal plan as well. Knowing my favorites has given me an arsenal of meals to choose from that can be added to the meal plan without much thought or trial/error.
4. Prepare for the Unexpected
You can be the worlds best planner but there will always be something that comes up that you weren't expecting. Plan and prepare for it! For me, I like to keep a couple of frozen pizzas on hand at all times. This makes it easy for me if I'm not feeling well, end up having an unexpected event, or just have something come up that I could have never imagined showing up on my calendar.
5. Don't Make It Complicated
I've browsed Pinterest on more than one occasion and found a meal that looks delicious but then requires 40 ingredients and what seems like a week to prepare. Don't do it! (Unless you really want to) I save my more complicated meals for the weekend otherwise it is simple, easy, low maintenance cooking for me. The less complicated the meal the easier it is to actually enjoy making and then the more time you'll have to spend doing what you love.
6. Try New Things
If your meal plan is identical from week to week you'll get bored. Mix it up. Try new things amidst the tried and true ones. A lot of people like to focus on food strictly as fuel but I believe God made it taste good for our enjoyment. Enjoy the adventure of trying something new, learning to cook new things, and exploring the whole wide world of delicious foods we have available to us. Watch cooking videos on YouTube, check out restaurant menus online for inspiration, peruse the grocery store isles for new ingredients to try, and have fun with it.
Meal planning is one of my favorite ways to prepare for a new month because it adds a level of stability, creativity, and adventure all wrapped into one. It also makes sticking to a budget so much easier! Run to the store, invest in some meal planning supplies, and be amazed at what you can accomplish (and how much less stress you have in your life) when you make a monthly meal plan!
