Days 3 - 10 plus more

(Day 3- A picture my brother made my hubby and me. Isn't he amazing?!) 

  I am putting a hold on my Etsy shop. I am planning on working, organizing, and scheduling time and having a "re-launch" sometime closer to the summer. There will still be a few things up for people to purchase and even some new items, but there will be much more to look forward to as the summer draws closer. I am hoping to net-work better and get my blog and myself out there more. Ideas are welcomed!
 (Day 4 - Teddy, my Dad gave me this bear the day I was born.)

(Day 5 -I made this necklace. The hubs bought me the heart pendant in SLO
and the chain came from his great grandma.)

 (Day 6 - My amazing hubby, Jeremy)

 As the new year started, Jeremy and I decided that we needed to do things differently this year. Three of our main goals as a couple, 1. Eat better and exercise more. 2. Take more pictures. and 3. Go more places and do more things! 
 Everyone says they want to eat better and exercise, but we really are doing it! We are not big on veggies and fruits. We have entered some into our diet and I am keep a "food journal". I can already tell the difference by just adding these foods. Now we just need to work on a daily exercising schedule. 
 The reason we decided to do the 365 (in this case 366) project is so we can take more pictures and hopefully this will encourage us to get out and do more. We are such home-bodies and lazy bums. It is all changing!  

 (Day 7- This is a doll found at my father and mother-in-law's house. 
It is pretty scary, but much scarier because of the bag on its head.)

 (Day 8 - Jewelry making! I already sold the key necklace and the heart bracelet to my awesome neighbor!) 

 (Day 9 - I am CPR certified!) 

(Day 10 - Me)

 Something else that I have made my personal goal, as I stated earlier, is to blog more and to get out in the blog world more. I was doing so well when my schedule was a little calmer during the summertime. However, I now work full time again and do about a million other things for everyone else. I am trying to work on setting aside some "me" time, which is when I plan on doing crafts and blogging and sometimes pampering myself in other ways. It is so important to take time away from the busy-ness and be alone and that is what I am trying to do. I'm such a do-er for others that I all too often forget about myself. I'm sure there are many that can relate!
