First Day of Project Thirty!

Well today is the day!! We're celebrating the first day of Project Thirty! I can't wait to take this journey with you. I think we're going to have a lot of fun with this; especially as school begins and we all start to get stressed out, it'll be nice to take a break from our busy days and do something fun^_^ I've decided to put all of the entries on a separate page so that it can remain there in case you miss a few days. You can click the link on the left side bar. Hope you're excited!


Happy Journaling. Melisa

4 Simple Goals


The lovely Elsie, of A Beautiful Mess, has challenged her readers to take on four simple goals to achieve by the end of the year. I've decided to participate because I love new challenges:) Here's my list:
1. Be healthier. I want to eat more fresh fruit and veggies. This also includes working out on a regular basis. This is not a tactic to lose weight or be on any sort of diet, I simply want to feel good about myself. I really love being healthy. It can be hard work, but it's always worth it in the end.
2. Take more photos of my daily life. I usually only take photos for special occasions and such, but I really want to capture beautiful moments in the everyday. Especially since I now have such a fabulous little camera!
3. Create a lovely Fall line. I really want to bring something new and exciting into the Pie N' the Sky shop this Autumn. I want it to be unlike anything I've ever done before:)
4. Spend more time with loved ones. I really want to make it a point to reach out to the people I love. I tend to be a little more introverted, in that I'd rather be in my room creating then out and about, but I'd like to work on spending more time with my friends and family on a regular basis.
These are my goals. What are yours?? I'd love for you to share^_^
