Wow…. 2011 is G.O.N.E. How did that happen?!? Time speeds up as you get older, I’m convinsed! I’ll be doing a 2011 review soon, but let’s talk goals today, shall we?

Create new system for back ups Eh…. not yet. 24. Submit to blogs & magazines Submitted once, got rejected :-/ 25. Make chalkboard … managed to loose my chalkboard paint… so this hasn’t happened 🙁 26. Hang drum shades…. never found any 🙁 December was a hard-working month. We did so much, and yet, I feel like there is still SO much left to do. I bought new flooring, ripped up all the old carpet, and then Jeremy & I installed the new stuff on Monday & Tuesday following Christmas. I’d been wanting a new door, but figured we could hold off on buying one till I found the perfect 2nd hand one at the ReStore. Welp… after the flooring went down… the old door wouldn’t fit, and it was metal, so we couldn’t cut it down. Off to find a new door we went last Thursday! We found one at the Cornelius ReStore, but it was unfinished wood and of course I wanted a white one. So off to the other 2 ReStore’s in Charlotte. Nothing. So we went to Lowes, where I’d resolved to spend more than I wanted on a new door. BUT THEY DIDN’T HAVE ANY!!!! Not a single interior, french door was to be found. So… we went back to the ReStore in Cornelius and bought the first one we found! $50 well spent! It was actually a brand new door that had never been installed anywhere, as it had no door knob hole or holes from hinges. I’m going to do a whole office post, but here’s a snippit 🙂 OK…. January Goals…. 1. Work on office (I won’t even go into specifics :-/ ) 2. Create some organization so that I don’t just stack papers on my desk. 3. Do some practice shooting with Jeremy! 4. Attend FerShops in Charleston! 5. Finish editing Heather & Graham’s wedding 6. Finish editing Anna Beth’s newborn pics 7. Blog lots 🙂 Yearly Goal: I want to blog every Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday…. Here’s off to a good start!
