Project 365 Update

I hate to say this, but it’s looking like I may already be giving up on project 365. I have not even made it through 2 complete months, ugh. I don’t think I’ve taken any photos at all this week, and I still have some photos from the few past weeks to edit and upload.

I’ve just been feeling like such a slacker these past few weeks, all I want to do is sleep. I think I should probably start taking multivitamins every day and see if that helps to make me feel like I have some energy, I bet that would help.

All things considered, I really don’t want to quit doing Project 365, I just need to regain my motivation and my focus, and then I think I’ll be able to continue it. So I’ve already missed more days this year than I ever meant to, that doesn’t matter, I’d still like to have as many photos as possible by the end of this year. I’m not quitting.

My Current Shopping Wishlist

Just a few things that I would love to be able to buy, and if I had the extra money I most likely would have purchased for myself by now!


Barnes & Noble – Nook Tablet

Canon Rebel T3i DSLR Camera

17″ HP Laptop *This particular one!*

27″ 3.1GHz Apple iMac computer I don’t know.. I’ve just always wanted to have an Apple computer since I learned that they were *standard* in the graphic design industry.

Do you find it sad that these are all electronics items? I also need clothing and shoes, but I’m not a high-fashion type of girl when it comes to that stuff, maybe I’ll do a separate shopping wishlist for those things!

Some Things I Think About

  • I think that if I didn’t bake so often.. then I wouldn’t have all these 30ish pounds to lose.
  • I think that I could give up on my creative hopes and dreams, and just work towards finding a “normal” job then I would quite possibly be making more money… but then I’m sure I would be completely miserable.
  • I think I could just choose any high paying career, go to school for it, and I would make lots of money. Maybe I’d even be good at what I do. But again, money will not buy happiness.
  • Sometimes I think that I must be flawed in some way, to be so strong willed and determined that I could make a living working from home; obviously that is not a goal of any ‘normal’ or ‘average’ people.
  • Sometimes I think that my marriage would work out better if I could just go work that 9-5 job and then come home, clean and cook, etc, without any complaints or desire for other people to help with things. Also, HECK NO, THAT’S NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN.
  • I think it’d be nice to have a part-time housekeeper, cook, or a nanny. Or maybe one person that does all of those. Maybe a duplicate of myself.
  • I think my husband should be more supportative of what I do with my time, and my goals for the future. Or anything that I choose to do.
  • I think no one should have to give up on their goals or dreams, or even have to seriously consider doing so.
  • Sometimes I think that MAN, I REALLY LIKE THESE BULLET LIST POSTS. Ha.

Ifs and What Nots

  • If I didn’t spend so much time on Bloglovin every day, I’d get a lot more blog stuff done!
  • I didn’t take time this week to schedule posts in advance, I can really tell the difference and I don’t like it.
  • I need to edit photos from this week and last week, and then post my ‘Friday Favorites’.. hopefully sometime later today I’ll get this done.
  • I need to edit above mentioned photos for my Project 365 also.
  • I sleep usually until 10:30am or later, I feel that this really needs to change. I want be the kind of person who wakes up super early in the morning to get the daily workout over with before everyone else in the house wakes up.
  • I feel like such a blog slacker this week, I’m suffering from major lack of motivation!!

I Can’t Believe He’s Almost 4

It seems like it was just last week that he was born, and now in a little over a month he’s going to be turning 4 years old. He’s already taller than some 5 year olds we know. He’ll be starting school in the Fall, I can’t believe he’s going to be old enough for that already.

I think all parents must feel this way about their children growing up, time truly does seem to pass by in the blink of an eye. I will make every effort I can to enjoy being around this little guy while he’s still young, while he doesn’t have homework, and while his parents are truly still his best friends.
