Weekly Wishes


Hey everyone.  I have been meaning to participate in weekly wishes for a while now.  If I'm being honest I feel like I have been participating, in my head.  I read everyones weekly wishes and start thinking of the things I would like to accomplish but the posting never quite gets done.  So here, this is my first official week participating and I am super pumped to be doing this with all you guys.

One // Start rebranding my etsy shop.  I have had a new name floating around in my head, something that fits better, and I'm ready to make the switch.  I am wanting to really make the push, take the plunge, and get after it as far as my shop is concerned.  So far I have done minimal advertising and I have been lucky enough to start making some sales, but this is the year that I really go for it.  I want to get into the nitty gritty of it and work towards making it bigger and better.

Two // Go running three times this week.  I have the biggest love/hate relationship with running.  I hate starting out.  It's always rough and it gives me a headache and I think know that I am just strides away from collapsing on the concrete, just like that.  But then, after I somehow toughing it out for a few weeks, it starts to get easier.  Then it starts to be invigorating.  And fun. Then I start coming up with big dreams for running in a race and running becomes the time that I think of all these "wonderful" blog post ideas, etc.   But yeah, I want to get back to that, so week 1, here I come.

Three // Take my camera out and shoot.  I love photography and I am constantly ooh-ing and ahh-ing over all the gorgeous photos that pop up in blog land.  I took a photography class in college and that really got me going but I haven't kept up with it like I want to.  I always make excuses about my city not being pretty enough, or not having someone to take portraits of (if only I would ask!), blah blah, you know how it goes.   But this week I want to make some time to just drive around with no set plan and see what I find.

Four // Start a new book.  I hit my 30 by 30 list hard the beginning of this month and I knocked 3 books off of my list in a week and a half!  After that last book, I lost my momentum and didn't start another. So that's my final goal, start a new book.
