HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Well, hello there 2010!  It's a beautiful cool and sunny day down here in my neck of the woods.  DH and I slept in pretty late today (close to NOON) - and it was great :)  then we got up and headed to our HEB to get groceries for HC tonight.  we watched Zoolander while putting away the groceries and had lunch.

DH is making the entire meal including a cake (for me and Ryan's bday) and he's been gracious enough to let me hole up in my happy scrappy place :o)

So today is the first day of the year and that means the first day of my Project 365 - taking a picture every day of this year.  I've posted my P365 pics on my shuttercal and i'll likely post it here to if there's every more than 1 pic i want to capture for the day.

So what was today's pic?  My refillable water bottle that I got at Wal-Mart a few months ago.

My goal this year is definitely to get into better shape, eat better, exercise more and hopefully lose about 30 lbs.  What are some other things I want to do?

spiritually
-read through the entire bible this year
-pray for my HC members 5 times a week
-complete the Transforming Life Bible Study that starts at our church on 1/11...and have perfect attendence.  13 weeks - I can do it, right!

physically
-get up earlier and have a good breakfast daily
-exercise 4-5 times a week
-eat smaller lunches and have a snack 2x a day
-lose 30 lbs
-"to not look like a 'before' pic everday" - The Creative Junkie

creatively
-P365
-52 Layouts
-12 mini albums
-365 cards
-blog 3x a week

well...those are a few of the things i'm going to try to do this year.  ahhh.  New Year's Day...when all seems possible :o)

anyhoo - here are some cards I made today.  this was from Barbara's challenge.  Here is my card using a scrap piece of ribbon lying around in:

Here's the challenge to use a yellow and purple color combo:

Looks like a cut out too big of a ribbon slot - oops :oP

Okay - time for me to tidy up a bit before our HC peeps get here.  Hope you all have a lovely 2010!!
