Slacker

I dont know how to manage my time! I need Time Managment 101. I have been super busy with work and school and TRYING to do something with Steph Garcia Photography that I have completely abandoned my blog! :( Well, a little update...

I have accomplished 2012 Goal No. 3 & 11... Unfortunetly I have failed No. 14. Its knid of hard to take a picture of something everyday when you're at work six days a week. I would be taking a picture of a different pill everyday and thats just BORING!! Its upsetting though because I was really looking forward to completeing P365 and looking back to 2012 once 2013 came along.  Maybe I can continue, not where I left off because that would be impossible, but im not too sure... Still thinking about what I would actually have to do to get myself organized again. I still have so many thing I would like to accomplish in 2012, good thing its only 2/27/2011. I still have time in 2012.

Well...

P365 :: {week four}



Day 22: So much for the key to HAPPINESS being {simple}. Here's to something else I'm stressing over in my life. My work schedule. Wish I lived closer to my family!!


Day 23: Working on gaining a customer or two, maybe even three. :) Goal No. 12 is to book at least five sessions by April 2012. Hopefully this mini-shoot helps. :)


Day 24: Worked all day, spent some time with Ashlyn! Now having a cup of coffee and working on Steph Garcia Photography. Again!!


Day 25: Today was just a blah day. last couple of days actually. Movie 50/50 and then off to bed.


Day 26: Yum Yum! Pancakes for breakfast today! Then to get a few things done before my work shift. 


Day 27: Car intentionally drives into barber shop at the corner, AGAIN!! Someone will lose their life at that intersection before this township actually does something to help avoid all the accidents! Fifth car accident at the intersection in a year. Thank goodness everyone was okay.


Day 28: Steven and I stayed in and ordered Chinese! OMG!! I so need to (maybe) start blogging about my weight. Maybe I'll lose more than a pound a week. Having to blog about it would be my motivation. And I really need to stop ordering Chinese food  (not that its often)!

some inspirations

So I said yesterday its time for me to try (again!!) something new!! I was checking Pinterest out and here are a few inspirations.




(images from Pinterest)
I am so excited to get my hands on a couple patterns and buy yarn LIKE crazy!!! :)

time for something new

It's that time again! I'm going to try it again. I started knitting a little over two years ago. And ten I tried crocheting, too. I liked them both just as much, but I also found myself screwing up the knitting patterns. One wrong loop and I was completely thrown off. Needless to say, I didn't have enough patience to deal with all the yarn. But now that I'm about three years older and I'm bored and I could use a couple extra bucks, I'm thinking about trying it again and maybe adding an item or two to my Etsy shop. See my thing is that I DON'T like simple when it comes to DIY projects and wish I could go straight to difficult. But in order to get to difficult (more advanced patterns in this case) you have to ace the simple ones first. 

Yea... 

Not I! I will go right for the difficult pattern first. I like a challenge. First I have to find one.  :) I will sure let you know what it is I decided to make.

P365 :: {week three}



Day 15: My sister came by for a quick visit with her baby Jack Sparrow (Shar Pei). :) Isn't he just adorable!!


Day 16: Mrs. Fields Milk Chocolate Chip cookies for dinner. :( Spoiled myself cooking every night and today I'm stuckat work till 9pm!


Day 17: For someone who hasn't been able to cook (working late shift) I sure have lots of dishes in the sink.


Day 18: Finally! A home cooked meal!! Ready for this one! Cheesy broccoli, Chicken stuffing in cream of broccoli soup and Chicken thighs rubbed with sour cream with Ritz Crackers sprinkled over top. & it was YUMMY!! So beats Mrs. Fields Milk Chocolate Chip cookies.


Day 19: Not one cup of coffee, but about three is what I needed to get me through today. Technical issues in the brain department, really felt like I was about to crash while I was counting pills today. Definitely can not afford to crash while Greys Anatomy is on.


Day 20: Watched Courageous with the family. Great movie!!


Day 21: First snow of the year!
