more on 365 photos

I had hoped to post every day or every other day on my 365 day photo adventure but I realize now that is not going to happen! Dylan has been sick so I have been happy to just get the photos done! So I am hoping to post once a week! I will now admitt that some of the photos were a quick desperate attempt at getting a photo done with all that has been going on! Like taking a photo of a painting I did! LOL So here are day 7-13.

Missed a day already!

well I have missed one day of photos already but only due to illness. I was sick enough that I did not eat and barely drank anything all day so I guess it was a good enough reason! but here are my photos for the 3rd and the 5th! I have yet to take the photo for the 6th~! guess I need to get moving!

365 days of photos

that is my goal for the year! I doubt I will be able to do each and everyday but if I aim for each day then maybe I will do at least half the year. Here is my photos for Jan. 1st and Jan. 2nd. but I will admit to cheating slightly already! the first photo was Done dec. 31st at approx 1130 pm at my nieces wedding! So I decided it is close enough.

My New Years Resolution

My New Years resolution is to scrap more, to find more time for me!!! Being a grandmother and then suddenly raising the 3 year old grandson has been quite the trial so far and I really need to find Sue time for my own sanity! So that is what I plan to do! With that I also hope to do more blogging and visit some forums I have missed dearly!!! Jan. 1st reveals a new challenge over at Paper Secrets!!! The challenge this month is a sketch with and added item! This is my layout for the sketch! Please be sure and check out the challenge on the Paper Secrets Blog !
