Yes I'm aware that it's not the new year yet, but I have thought about a couple of things that I would like to achieve in 2010. So I figured I should write them down before I forget.
1. Lose (ideally) 12k. I'm currently 74/75k. My bmi is 26(something). It should and needs to be under 25. The wii fit suggests I get to 22 bmi, which means 62k. So that means 12. So my goal is:
Lose 12K, 1k a month
2. Read 12 books
I managed to read 17 books this year, so I know it's possible.
List of books to (possibly) read.
- Harry Potter and the half blood prince
- Harry Potter and the deathly hallows
- To kill a mockingbird
- Battle axis trilogy
- Tomorrow series (I've already read book 1 & 2)
- Baby I did a bad thing (but haven't we all)
- Blood is the new black
3. Project 365
Take a photo each day and upload it on here.
I will add more when I think of more.

Crop!
Took the kids to the playground and took some very interesting shots.
Kayla was running to me and I took the following.





They make a great series. Some are out of focus, but that's only because the shutter speed and auto focus couldn't keep up with her running!
I love the look on her face in this one

she really was going "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" that's my little pirate.

Think Think Think
Ok so I already have a blog, but it's for my business MiCreations and well I figured it would be good to having another blog for all the random stuff that I have going on.
I doubt many if any will follow, but hey, who cares, these are just my random thoughts. What got me thinking about it was really 2 things.
1. On AP someone suggest the 365 day project. Where basically you take a photo each day of the year. I thought this was a fantastic idea. So I'm going to attempt to do it. I usually have my camera not far from my reach anyway. And since I'm going to be away on holidays when 1st Jan happens, what the heck. So we'll see if i can actually do it. I'm going to try. I'll have a mini goal of 30 days. That's achievable, and since they wont really be MiCreations (my webpage not blog this time) based, it doesn't really fit, if you know what I mean.
2. I'm listening to "Confessions of a Reformed Dieter" by AJ Rochester (ex bigger loser host), which I will add is a very good book (I have to say I'm loving audio books, why didn't I think to do it before?!), anyway things she mentioned in there make sense. If you make yourself accountable.... ok so i don't remember exactly what she said, but i know in my head what i mean :p
Also the other thing is I'm not on MM anymore. I use to like that place, but since I'm no longer a member and never will be (long story, and if you want to know I will explain), I need somewhere to put my random blab.
So yeah that's it in a nutshell... except I don't really think it makes sense, oh well. I will know what it means.
ha!
Now to have fun with photoshop to make this place more like me!

Well my girl is now 3. She celebrated her 3rd birthday on Monday.

I've been keeping busy with photographing her birthday, she just loved the attention.
Kayla you can do anything you want to be!

It's the silly season...
December really is the silly season. I have my daughters birthday (7th December), then I'm going on a road trip to Queensland for Christmas, then I have to organise my son's 1st birthday (3rd of January).
I've been busy taking Christmas photo's, but I've been having fun doing it. I've also being having fun fooling around in photoshop.



Remember there is only a small window of opportunity for you to request something before I take my Christmas leave.
Take Care!
