The year is fresh and along with reflections of last year, I have been thinking about what is ahead. I have not so much made resolutions this year, but I do have a handful of goals in mind.
1. I lost a little of my photo mojo this last year, but with the brand new lens that I received for Christmas, I am back on task and ready to go. I also think that I am going to begin a Instagram photo challenge. A daily shot that is #365grateful. A little diary of a moment each day to be thankful for.
2. I need to get better about scheduling posts, and utilizing drafts when blogging. I have already started to put a few thoughts in draft and I must say, it is nice. Why have I not done this before? I am also eager to begin a new writing project with some friends.
3. I read 36 books last year. This year I want to up the ante and aim for 50.
4. Nothing like the weather to drive a goal. With high temperatures expected to below zero and waking up to -10 this morning, our focus will easily be directed to organizing the basement.
5. Christmas has been taken down, and some simple winter white decor put up. I love having a few days after travel, to spend with the family just hanging out and readying for whats next.

I am much the same about my camera. I got a bit tired of it in 2013, but now have a new lens and am back in the swing of things! Looking forward to seeing your new pics!
ReplyDeleteI lost some of my photo mojo last year, too, and it's a goal /priority to get it back for me as well.
ReplyDeleteI read just around 30 books in 2013. (some of them were LONG, I keep telling myself!)
I'd like to reach for 50 this year, too. A friend, who borrows me lots of books, kind of like my personal library, reads 100 books a year!! I don't know how she does it. I would never sleep!
I am glad so glad you commented on my blog, because it brought me over here & I love it! New follower. :)
i am always amazed by folks that read so many books. i read but not that many. i find that it is tough to center myself & i get distracted more these days. wish you well on that goal. Happy Weekend! ( :
ReplyDeleteLovely photo. - Hope your Mojo is on the return, from that photo it looks like it is.
ReplyDeleteNothing like cold weather to keep one motivated to do indoor projects. - I need to read more too.
I always think the same thing about writing posts as drafts. I think I just get to excited to publish them, but I am hoping to be better this year.
