Not doing so great with the resolutions

What can I say??? I still am having trouble keeping up with my resolutions. My MLS class is going ok. I need to spend some more time on it though. Everything else , well, let's just say I need some help.

Starting tomorrow, I'm going back on Weight Watchers. I had started losing weight, but then life got crazy and I stopped paying attention to what I ate. Gotta get back at it.

Today, is Shan's b'day party. Should be fun. I really should be getting stuff together for it, but I've got a terrible case of the lazies. And having Dave & Tay still in bed doesn't really help matters either......

Too much to do....too many things to keep me from it!

January 1, 2008

Can it be a new year already? Man, how time does fly. Once you graduate from high school, whoosh....the time does fly.

Well, I've started this year with high hopes. I started back on Weight Watchers yesterday. Didn't do so great on my points yesterday. Did a bit better today, but still not great. Maybe tomorrow will be a bit easier. Then my first weigh in comes on Thursday. We'll see how that goes.

My resolutions??

1 - take better care of myself. That means losing weight. Exercising more. Doing good things for me.

2 - take better care of my family. Sometimes I'm very good at it. Other times, not so much.

3 - take better care of my home. I NEED to get neater. I can't stand living like this. Hopefully FlyLady can help me get started.

4 - do well in my class. I'm taking an online grad course working towards my MLS. We'll see how that goes. HOpefully, its something I can stick with.

Hmmmm...I think that's enough for now. If I can work on these and make these habits, then maybe I'll come up with some more.

Here's to me and 2008. Cheers!

Doing as I'm told

Well, someone shared some great links that have some great images that I can use in my altered art work. The catch is that I need to post the link here on my blog. So, I'm gonna try to do just that. Then I can use them for the challenge that Lauren has given to me and Tiffany. Yay!

Where did the time go??

I had such high hopes for my art, my body, and just my journey in general. But then, alas, the journey gets busy and mundane. I don't have the time to spend on the things I want to do. I barely have enough time to do the things I must do. And then I procrastinate. Such a cycle.

Well, here I am, again. Let's see if I can't do a better job of enjoying my journeys.

Sad

Ok, so I finally did my first page. This one is for 'Sad'. There's not much to it. Mainly I guess because sad is not a place I want to be. I don't do well in sad. Now it's over and done and I can move on.

Long Day's Journey into Night

I started this blog for several reasons.

One....I'm starting my weight loss journey. I've been exercising for a couple of months...finally got a gym membership. And I've been feeling quite good lately. I haven't really been *dieting* but have been trying to watch my portions and what I eat. So far, I've lost about 8 lbs. Not a lot, but I'm not really worried about losing weight quickly. I have noticed a change in the way my clothes and shoes fit...so that's a good thing.

Two...My other journey right now is the *You think you know me* class that I'm taking from Shimelle. This is the place where I am hoping to keep track of that.

Three... This will also be the place that I will post my *Learn Something New* album....if I ever get to working on it. (Shame on me! :P)

Here's to my journeys and yours! May the wind always be at our backs.
