can’t believe it’s MARCH already. I’m frustrated that VA is having all of this warm weather because I still have CUTE SWEATERS that I need to wear!! Where has the winter gone?! So I may or may not have postponed my “Goals” post by a day or two because I was secretly getting some of my last minute goals accomplished! (If you come over and think the hem is crooked on our hallway curtains…you’re right… they are most definitely crooked but hey! I accomplished one more goal!!) So here is to a productive month of March!! There are some fun things happening this month… one being the SUGAR SHOOT! I have so much to do but
I’m so excited to hangout with these awesome photographers!!! Lets hope I can get some of these other goals accomplished in the midst of workshop planning! Oh and Ps. I’m really ok with not accomplishing EVERYTHING on my list…. I aim high every month and then just do the best I can. If you’re a blogger and have never blogged your goals before… give it a try! You’ll start getting MISC projects done simply because you’re intimidated by a blog post! It’s wonderful! Below are new goals and a February Recap! (Bolded TEAL goals have been accomplished! YESSSS)
