Inspired ~ 40 days of blogging

I’ve been inspired. I LOVE being inspired! My dear friend Tobi is in the middle of a 40 week yoga challenge. I’m so proud of her for doing something like this for herself, not just because she seems to be enjoying it, but because it’s encouraging me and potentially others, to do something.

I’m a committer. If I say I’ll do it, consider it already done. If I promise something, you bet your little bottom that promise will be fulfilled. If I say something is going to be done a certain way, consider it done 2 or 3 times better than I’ve promised (and sometimes early). It’s something about a promise that’s exciting to me because once you do something for someone that they sort of expected to be nice, but it ended up being something greater than they ever imagined….it makes them happy and I like that. 

Admittance is the first step! What I’m bad about is promising myself something and doing it or sticking to it. Especially when it comes to pampering myself or doing something fun or out of the ordinary just for me. It’s easier to make sure Madyson or Eric is happy, but alas no one can really be happy unless the Momma is happy! So I’m making some promises to myself:

#1 Today begins 40 days of blogging. I’ll post something once per day no matter what. It might be photography related and it might be personal, one never knows! I know blogging as a concept isn’t that difficult. For me it’s about the time committment. Thanks Tobi for this inspiration of doing something worthwhile for 40 days. This will help me develop my blogging habit again and I’m so excited! There will now be 5 different categories on this blog for your viewing pleasure…..Engagement, portraits, personal, inspired and weddings. The inspire section is the newbie and that will consist of things that inspire me to do something different, thing in a different way or just make me happy in general.

#2 Once per week for 2-3 hours I will go to something relaxing just for me (make sure I write about this or send me an email telling me what a bad girl I am!)

And to start this 40 days of blogging off right, we will end with a photo.

More of this cute little guy coming soon!
