Resolution Recap

My New Years Resolution/Goals/Wishes & Dreams/One Little Word{Reclaim}
Well we haven't done this for a few weeks, so I thought it might be about time...

Reclaim some order in my life ~well, my calendar has important dates for March in it, my laundry is done, house is picked up, my studio is picked up,  got new internet service -cancelled the old, I cleaned off 2 shelves in my bedroom closet this week {-pitched stuff right in the trash!} Feeling pretty good about this one.
Conquer my Project List ~Nope, notta, nothing!! BUT I have been feeling the spring cleaning urge coming on...
The messy space that is my attic & library ~Went up there last week, to find suitcases. And Maddy cleaned out the stuff that goes to the barn, so I'm feeling like I can start on this soon.  I've been putting this off partly cuz I really just don't want to do it, and partly becuz there is no heat in the attic and it's been freezing!!
Health and fitness ~Doing okay. Walked twice this week. Been a bit sick, so not sure I should over do it right now.
Practice looking for inspiration in new places ~Yeah, been working on that.  Bought a photography book, and some magazines this past couple of weeks. I've also been reading/enjoying the weekly newsletter from Ali Edwards, and checking out some new blogs.
Desire to create ~Actually put some stuff together to make a mini vacation album. Made Maddy 3 new shirts.
Project Life ~ugh! I'm a bit behind on some journaling, but plan to get that handled this weekend{goal is for pics will be up Mon.}
Regular Scrapbooking ~Plan to put together the mini vacation album Tuesday of this week, I hope!{pics will follow}
Blogging 3-5 times per week ~Think I'm doing pretty good with that one
Classes ~ Having a rough time with my One Little Word class, right now, but hoping to get back on track with that soon. The Camera Club had a night where co-organizer, Mark, taught us some stuff about our cameras, he did a good job, just not sure I'm teachable.
Work on taking better pics, learn how to use my camera ~working on it! Been trying to take it off of auto. And really working on Composition.
Sense of adventure ~THAT'S A BIG YEP!!! Maddy and I just got back from a trip to the UP to visit with my dad.
Control over financial situation ~ set up bill pay on line for the month of March, got 2 bill pay apps for my iPhone, I balanced my checkbook, and cleaned out my bill folder.  I did set a budget for trip, and stayed on it.
Time management skills ~ uh, doing ok. haven't been late, or missed any apts. or deadlines. Had all my stuff packed and ready for trip early.  House was even picked up, although that pesky stupid ass Christmas tree is STILL up, BUT in my defense, I was planning to take it down before leaving on trip, then we had to leae early becuz of the big storm...

So that's, that!!! Not doing too shabby, for me especially!!!
