I have been simplifying things in our house to achieve the desired effect - determining goals, determining steps and meeting them. No time like the present to just do it - like guitar. I've wanted to learn to play for years, kept saying one day.... Our church has new classes starting Wednesday nights every quarter, and this quarter guitar was offered. So I did it! I signed up, Christopher surprised me with a gorgeous accoustical guitar and off I went. It wasn't too bad. :) I'm so happy I finally jumped into something I've wanted to do for a long time.
Next goal on tap: writing. I've loved books since I was young, so why not put some of these ideas down on paper?
Another goal: design work. I love card making and scrapbooking, really paper crafts of all kinds. I made some decorated journals for a craft auction at work and was worried they wouldn't all sell. They did, and exceeded what I thought they would sell for at that (I whipped up 5 small and 5 large, and brought in $94 for the charity. Awesome!). I love having contributed something as well as using some more supplies in the house to reduce what is sitting in my dining room. I aim to declutter more as well as share my love with other people. Win win!
Work is steadily going well, and I've been enjoying Gossip Girl, season 1, borrowed from my fave barista at my fave drive thru espresso stand close to home. We are so fortunate to have really awesome coffee in Seattle - and the recent discovery of Coffee Mate creme brulee is just an added treat this week! Life is good!
