A Resolution Update

It's been six months since I've made my resolutions for the new year. In case you care how those are turning out, I'll be using this post to update you on how those are turning out. If you're not all that interested, there's something for you at the end of the blog post.

Lose 10-15 lbs. I lost 5 lbs for my engagement shoot, and then I mastered the art of pies.

Read The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Um... kind of. And when I say "kind of," I mean that I got an audiobook to have someone else read it to me while I'm on the treadmill every three weeks.

Learn how to sew. I'm working on it. The sewing machine that I inherited is thirty years old and it started to fall apart on me as soon as I took out the bobbin and accidentally unraveled it. It wasn't until I bought a book on sewing when I learned that I wasn't really supposed to do that.

Write more often. I haven't been. Sorry about that.

Work more often with computer art tools. I have been! I just don't have proof. Sorry about that.

Try to Deal with fear of zombies. I'm still terrified of zombies. I have until December. If I don't succeed, then I can at least tell people I tried and to leave me alone. You know, like mature five-year-olds do when they eat the cheese off their broccoli and told their parents they tried eating their veggies, but they just didn't like them.

Develop one idea for a project. Yep. It's called "wedding invitations." Complete with wine. Best idea I've had all year.

Thank you for your patience, those who were and weren't really interested in the above. Whether you kind of read the update or simply scrolled to the bottom, this is for you. You know, to sum everything up.
