looking forward



painting from here



instead of resolutions i thought i would instead make a list of things i am looking forward to in 2014.  i have been thoughtful about this list but certain as the year progresses more will be added but for now here it is:

 

reinventing my mornings (i love to sleep in which means i am often rushing out the door so a good start would
be to get up much earlier than i currently do!)

 

taking a photoshop class to create layout and mood boards, retouch photos,

add type and drawings to images... to make my blog posts feel special

 

practising patience, always

 

attending spin classes

 

reading more... books not magazines 

 

mastering the art of icing

 

taking the photos off the computer and into albums (perhaps during those

reinvented mornings?)

 

starting a veggie garden in the summer

 

shopping for new patio furniture once the construction is finally complete

 

being in the kitchen more as stefan's sous chef (i really enjoyed rolling up

tiny meatballs and making gnocchi with him)

 

saving my pennies for a new kitchen countertop... like this one (especially since 
i will be sous chefing more often)

 

learning to blow dry my hair the way they do at the salon

 

laughing, alot

 

getting better about photography... especially to capture action since i have a boy

who often refuses to pose for photos

 

travelling, anywhere

 

hosting dinner parties

 
i love making lists, especially crossing things off as they are completed! 

what's on your list?
