Hmm...I'm a little reluctant to say anything because there have been many times that I have decided to do something and I have great intentions but it takes me like 2-3 years to actually follow through. Let's say this blog for example, I decided I wanted to do it, gosh, 2 years ago and I just started it this past summer. See, I'm bad.
But this time, I really want to do this!!! I really want to get a start on something and make it so that when my kids start school I can still stay busy and work for myself, make/have my own schedule. Have summers off when I want, off for the holidays...plan a schedule for myself, do things when I want to do them...plan my own life, not let some corporate business run my life or the state, whoever I work for. I want to do it myself!!
Now, I'm not going to set some crazy time line for myself that I know will stress me out to do it. I am not going to set myself up for failure or for overwhelming myself with too much to do...a little at a time. That's how I am going to do it. Not put too much on myself. I have to remember what my life is like, how crazy my life can be. I need to be able to take some time off when I need to.
Ok, so here it is, I am going to start blogging my creativity. I am going to blog everything I create...or at least most of what I create. I did awful this Christmas, I took no pictures. NONE! And I created A LOT!! Be ashamed (saying this to myself!)
Let's see, I painted about 20 ornaments, made yo yo's for many things-shirts, headbands, I even created a really pretty picture out of my Popaw's neckties for my cousin Laura and another cousin's son...I even helped decorate my cousin, Deanna's, house for a Christmas party...I did a ton of work!! AND DOCUMENTED NONE OF IT!! Gosh, I could beat myself.
You see, I got this really nice professional Cannon camera so that I could take good pictures of the things that I created so that I could display my creativity! And have I done it yet? NO!!!
I need to clean my house, get organized for the new year and make a new start for myself. Start trying to document my creativity so that when my kids are ready for school and I am ready for my own business, when I can actually do it. I feel like if I don't exactly call it my business right now, I can pick and choose my jobs so that I don't bombard myself with too many projects. I hate to give people the wrong impression of what I am doing right now. Because right now, I am a mom... two year old twins who I stay home with, plus a 5 year old in kindergarten who I have to keep a schedule for and if I don't, well, let's just say, I need to!...and that, is what is most important to me right now!
Hopefully, I keep things sort of rolling, get myself out there and advertise a little here and there, maybe, just maybe, I'll make a name for myself!!! Gosh, I would love to spend the rest of my life being a wife, mom, and artist!!!
So, there's my new years resolution...nothing huge, right? Just a blog...just documenting my skills!!! and my life along the way!! I need to become more techy anyway, and this just might be the way to do it! Learn to blog!! and post pictures!!
Later everyone! Happy New Year!!!
