Like many people I have many times over the years tried to begin my year with resolutions and goals for the new year, most of which end up on the wayside, because ugh! Why did I even add that to the list?\u00a0 2016 was an interesting one for me though, I actually accomplished many of my goals and resolutions, and those were the ones to do with my religion.<\/p>\n

Reading Goals<\/h2>\n

I guess reading is on a lot of peoples lists \u2013 read more is usually what I would expect to see.\u00a0 For me though, my goal in 2016 was not to read more, but to read more Pagan and related books.\u00a0 Less fiction, more non-fiction and reference.\u00a0 If you look at my Goodreads you see I didn\u2019t read very many books at all in 2016<\/a>! Usually I would read over 50 books in a year, but 2016 it\u2019s like 10 books on my \u201cRead\u201d list.\u00a0 It is difficult to read books when you have an infant, then crawler, now toddler! Plus homeschooling a 9 year old and 7 year old, things get busy.<\/p>\n

On my Goodreads (and indeed on this blog, I reviewed some of these) I list that I read,<\/p>\n
