Getting in the Groove

I started this blog on August 2000.



Since we just passed the nine year mark, I’ve decided to try some new things for the blog. Mostly to keep myself regular and posting everyday and also a chance to try out some things I’ve wanted to for a while. So I made a little schedule for myself and as a reminder to myself I am going to post it here and do my best to keep to it.

I will still keep posting daily photos. I want to take more “non family” photos so I will attempt to do more of that. I will still have daily Nathaniel since we’re still in his first year and I promised I will take photos every day in his first year. I will make sure to have at least one photo of David every week. One photo of myself every week. And monthly (ideally more frequently) photos of me and the kids and Jake and the kids and all four of us. Let’s see how this goes.



Here’s a schedule for non-photo posts I want to make daily:

Mondays: I will post a video of something. Either a photoshop/digital tip or a non-digital technique etc.



Tuesdays: A new layout/mixed media art, etc.



Wednesdays: A digital download package. It will have anywhere from 7 to more digital elements in it.



Thursdays: My weekly tag.



Fridays: Books. I am starting to read more and will challenge myself to read a book a week (more coming on this) and on Fridays I will write about the book I read that week.



Saturdays: A photo tip. This will be a tip on photography. Technicals, how to improve, how to use your camera, etc. Just my compilation of this information.



Sundays: A new creative therapy catalyst.



My plan is to also post at least 3 longer journaling-type entries a week. When I look back upon my years of posting here, besides the photos, those are my favorite posts. Here’s to hoping I can make that happen.
