resolving

so what is a new year without some resolutions? i mean really. i love the start of a new year because it's totally a chance to start afresh & anew. even though january 1st is really no different than december 31st, it is in my head. it's like monday... only bigger.

so what am i resolving to do this year? what are some of my goals for 2k11? well... here are a few:

• i'm totally doing p365 this year. i got myself a decent camera & i'm gonna use it. i'm gonna get better at it & i'm gonna find something to take a picture of at least once a day.

• i want to unleash my inner fashionista. i've felt so inspired by lots of other bloggers out there who rock such cute styles, & i'm ready to dump the daily t-shirt & hoodie look. and try new things. headbands, bows, leggings... all things i LOVE on other people, but haven't dared try. this is my year.

• i want to ride the seattle to portland in july. this is a 205 mile bike ride from downtown seattle to downtown portland. i have a strong love affair with my bike, but it was horribly neglected last summer. i'm gonna make it up to her {yes, my bike is a her. her name is tess}.

• it's time to get back in shape. like, for reals. i'm at my pre-prego weight but the bod aint the same. it's time to take my work outs seriously & find ways to work out in-between stroller strides days. it's gotta happen.

• continue to blog lots. blogging is an amazing creative outlet for me when folding laundry & putting away dishes don't quite cut it. it's important to me & i'm sticking with it.
