week in the life 2010 {one}

let's get this straight:

full-time working mom + 2 preschoolers + 3 extra-curricular activities + kick-my-ass photography class =

a. mini mental-breakdown

b. begging for more hours in the day

c. cup runneth over with gratitude

d. all of the above

so - i can choose to see the glass half full or half empty. but let's be real, some days it's simply a little bit of both. the w.i.t.l. project is on my to-do list, but in all honestly it didn't even cross my mind til my dear friend (who is even BUSIER than me) asked me (if i had time) to join her & a few pals, confidants, & friends. is she psychic or what? with all the hustle & bustle (april - june is one of the busiest times of the year for me) i ALWAYS forget to slow down. this project has FORCED me to take apart each day (if only for one week) and do just that. that being said, i fully intend to finish, complete, achieve (whatever you wanna call it) THIS PROJECT - even if i have to completely lift ali. since i'm obviously strapped for time, i will simply post one meaningful pic (which i will obviously go into detail with later in the album) for each day. wish me luck!

THURSDAY 04/22the rest of the week is on it's way...

p.s. hey nette, i liked how you used this font on our blog - it looks like a typewriter, so it's now going to be my {new} thing ;)

p.s.s. when i had downtime, i used to be able to blog at work, but they have blocked ALL (yes! all!) blogs. damn them!

and so it begins.

after a 500+ person waiting list, a minor bump in the road when i rescheduled the first class, & a couple hundred (or so) dollars later and I AM IN!

karen russell's coveted photography class - here we go!

here's to 10 weeks of learning!

move over bruce lee...

my whole life my pa has always preached about what he believes is "important" in life - "the 3 M's": math, music, & martial arts. i had actually forgotten about it until i had kids of my own. as soon as they were born he'd remind me, "the 3 M's wena, the 3 M's!"

when g turned 5 i felt it was a decent age to go ahead & let him try the 3rd "M". r & i debated between jiu jitsu, judo & karate, but finally ended up choosing kung fu. the deciding factor for me? bruce lee, of course! we wanted to choose a martial art that was, in my opinion, "traditional". if he gets older & wants to learn all the "new school" styles, he'll have that option. but until that day comes, here's to my little white belt!

happy new EVERYTHING!
