Point and Shoot.

I think I wrote down my resolutions for the year then decided to only remember one of them. Granted it was the big one. The one that causes me a so so much anxiety. The running 26.2 miles one. The other resolutions seemed to immediately go to the wayside. Perhaps this was because I spent the first few weeks of the new year in a different state and when I returned I spent three days snowed in. Then when things were finally back to normal.... I just forgot to make the effort?! I guess this is the best excuse I can come up with. I had to actually go to my resolutions page to even remember the other resolutions for 2012.

Hi, it's March.

The good thing is that I have all year to make up for lost time. I don't believe in giving up until December 31st.

The reason I was even thinking about my forgotten resolutions was because I'm feeling a little bit off. There are a few things (hobbies) that I partake in that make me feel more centered. They include (but most definitely are not limited to); reading, baking, scrapbooking, photography and gardening. I realized today that I haven't had my point-and-shoot camera in my purse in almost a week. It has just been sitting on my desk. I've actually had a few moments this week where I've thought to myself, "I should take a photo of that," only to mentally kick myself for not having my camera with me.

I was also inspired by my friend Lisa's recent blog posts (check her out).

So in the spirit of continuing resolutions from past years, I'm issuing a challenge to myself to take at least one photo a day for the next month. This really shouldn't be that difficult for me, but I need something to jump-start me back in to a more creative mind frame. The weather has been awful so there has been no gardening, the room at my Mom's house that we use for scrapbooking is currently going through a remodel, the book I'm reading is less than inspiring and there are only so many cookies one girl needs to bake. So that leaves me to the task of taking more photos. The added benefit here will be.... Posts with photos! Yay!

So here is yesterday's shot. Taken from my camera phone.... still haven't put the ole point-and-shoot in my purse!
My nephew is so cute.
Everyday I learn something new from him..
Yesterday's lesson was...
Be careful what you ask for, kisses are fine, snot nosed kisses.... not so much!
