2010 - Resolutions and Learning to Breathe

With all the hub bub of the holidays, traveling, Lila’s birthday, moving, preparing to open an Etsy store, it seems I haven’t had a second to breathe.  And yes, it’s true, I am still writing out my holiday cards!  ha ha But at this point, what’s the rush, right?!?  I have to remind myself sometimes that all of the things I ‘need’ to get done can sometimes wait until tomorrow, hence the holiday cards.  It will be unexpected mail now and that’s always fun to get. :))

I’m not sure about you but I’ve always written a resolution list on the first day of the year.  I’ve been doing it for years now and the goal is to try to at least look into or start most of the things on the list.  Also, it’s a reminder to the things in life that I either dream about or have always wanted to do / try.  This year was no different, I got out my pen and paper and wrote. 

The first thing on the list will be even more fun now with the amazing Christmas gift from my husband, my new Nikon D5000, hmm, maybe he is reading my blog after all..I guess this blogging thing is paying off!  Although I didn’t see Robert Pattinson under the tree, hmmm, maybe next year.  ha ha 

Dear Santa Blog Post

So my first listed resolution is to take a photography class.  I was lucky to find a great class in a couple weeks time, I’m all registered and the class is Jan. 30!  I can’t wait. 

My second listed resolution is to open my Etsy store by this March with my spring collection, here are just a few names of the jewelry pieces I’m working on.  I hope to release a sneak peak before then.

1. The French Tourist

2. Park Bench Dreaming

3. Marine Layer

4. The Vintage Mango (Sarah, this one’s for you!!!! :)))

What are some of your resolutions?  Did you make a list?  I’d love to hear about what you are doing differently so far this year. 

Have a great weekend!!
