Checking in on my Resolutions

Checking in on my Resolutions - The year of MORE

I am about 45% happy with the way my goals are going this year. I would be closer, but really, I keep running out of time, I'm thinking that I was maybe a little over zealous to take these all on in one year!

1| I am going to LOSE MORE WEIGHT - I am currently down 19 pounds and 4" off my waistline!!! I have a long way to go on this front but I would say that it's going well!
2| I am going to BLOG MORE - I have been trying for once a week on each blog and I have been pretty good so far!
3| I am going to SKATE MORE - I think I get a fail for this one, when I am not doing Relay I am studying for my S7 I really need to figure out how to do this more!
4| I am going to TAKE MORE PICTURES - fail! Unless you count my iPhone shots which is about daily, I will post my month compilation of them later on!
5| I'm going to DO MORE around the house - I have been somewhat rocking this! I actually have been keeping things under control!
6| I'm going to MOVE MORE - ummm, yeah read that Series 7 comment above! Probably not enough!
7| FOCUS MORE - Chapter 4 on S7 done! Relay thriving I am gunna say win!

Off to comiccon this weekend!!! Yeah!!

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off. This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it! I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

Merry Craftmas!!

When I was little Mom had one of these to put out every Christmas. I remember her tossing it out having fixed its hot glue after every warm summer in the shed, she wasn't particularly attached to it but I was. Having collected enough baby food jars (finally) I put it together this weekend! Looks just like I remember it and now it is sitting in my closet awaiting its debut next weekend!
