2012 Resolutions

Six short months ago, we welcomed 2012 with high hopes.  How about a little resolution check-in now that half the year has passed?  My resolutions were:

1.  Practice my banjo for 100 hours.  Here is the little timer I use to keep track of my practice total (and my fingerpicks and the supersweet pink wristband I wear because believe it or not, I'm allergic to my banjo):  


I'm almost a quarter of the way to my goal... not the worst, but not quite what I had hoped.  Oh well, I'll just change my goal.  My new resolution is to practice my banjo 50 hours this year. 


2.  Organize all of my photos into albums.  To be honest, this was also a 2011 resolution.  But take a look at this:


All of my photos are in albums!!!  They're even in chronological order!  This is basically a miracle.

3.  Buy nothing from Amazon.com.  This was an easy one.  It's way easier to avoid taking action than it is to take action.  I don't hate Amazon-- I just like our local places better.

There you have it!  Now I have six more months to practice 25 hours, tie up a few loose photo ends (like sending the extras to people-- maybe you!), and keep avoiding Amazon.  No sweat.

Go you! I'm also working on a photos-in-chronological-order project. It's a little trickier than I thought.

Keep on pluckin'!
