Well, 2011 is over, and even with it's very rough start, it turned out to be a pretty good year. Live Limelight was launched and is growing and doing well. I became an uncle to the sweetest little girl! My photography improved greatly. I have grown my social circles and improved current relationships. Not to mention I have continued my path of constantly learning.
Overall, I am pleased with my success on my 2011 list. Not everything got done, but that just leaves room for improvement this year. ;)
Here is my 2012 list of goals:
1. Continue weight gain. Add another 10 lbs to total 110 lbs.
2. Have at least 4 over night trips outside of Charlotte
3. Get stephencoombsstudios.com launched
4. Continue 'out of hospital' streak
5. Grow LiveLimelight.com - get ads sold, double viewers, create and maintain G+ page
6. Improve daily exercise routine
7. Restart and keep up with illdieanotherday.blogspot.com (purchase domain for it?)
8. Increase use of Google+
9. Prepare and print at least 1 coffee table photo book
10. Plan, and follow through on at least non-music photo shoot
11. Do a 365 instagram project with new iPhone.
12. Create a WordPress theme
Signing off for now, I will be back more regularly.
Here's to a very happy and fantastic 2012 for everyone!

Photo Friday
It's Friday! Normally this would be a great thing, with me heading out to take in some live music and do my photo thing. That is not the case this week.
The headache continues. Another day of dark, quiet, and meds. On top of it all today, I an completely drained. So, that made for a day of sleep.
I'm disappointed in myself for not getting out or making a Live Limelight event happen this week. (But hey, there is still this weekend. I'm not going to push it, not for my health's sake. )
My sister did send me a couple recent pics of my niece today! Wow, she's cute and getting big. Soon I'll be going over there with camera and lights to do some family portraits with them. That should be a great time.
Well, considering it is photo Friday, here is a recent photo I've taken of my niece.

Anyways, early night and (hopefully) a great headache-free day tomorrow.
Healthwise: Blah. Headache and drained all day. Good side, breathing is good and my feet, even tho they are swollen, they are not as swollen as the last few days.

Oh What a Headache
Today, what a day. I started early and was enjoying breakfast, coffee and web work. I was looking into how to setup a new local web environment so I can move forward on some web development ideas. That is when my headache first started.
It was mind enough that I was just going to ignore it and keep going. I got up, grabbed a snack, started looking into the Live Limelight gathering and outing for tonight and started to get excited. The headache got worse. Tylenol and keep going. I sat back away from the computer and watched some tv. The headache decided to take over.
I emailed the Live Limelight crew telling them I wouldn't be able to go anywhere tonight. Meds, lights out, sounds off, even debated muzzling Vapour (but he decided to curl up with me and nap - smart cat), wrapped up and napped away the evening.
Woke up, yep, headache still here. Mild fever and an upset stomach now added to my night.
Prepped everything for morning, hot tea to help settle my belly and my nightly meds with added tylenol and tums and I'm ready to end this day.
Looking forward to a much better day tomorrow.
Healthwise: Shitty day. Mild fever of 100F tonight. Hopefully a better day tomorrow. At least breathing was good.

Post Productive Day - A Not So Productive Day
Well, today was mostly just a dull blah day. I got up to a good pot of coffee brewing, and did my new exercise routine for the first time... Then I took a pain killer. Yep over did it a little, and will have to be a bit more careful tomorrow. Other than that, today has been kinda bland. After a very productive day yesterday, I ended up doing very little today. A little computer work, and then pretty much a day of random thoughts, relaxing, social media websites and television.
I looked over a few things that I wanted to accomplish, and well, I decided to do them all later. Actually, I don't think it was a conscious decision, more of I just didn't get around to doing any of it and I will eventually do it later. I did download the latest version of MAMP to install, but did not install it yet. I tested printing to my 5x8 card stock for my home cookbook, and all of that worked out well. Once I get a few more recipes typed up, I'll be starting to print and put them in my cook book binder.
Looking forward to getting together with the rest of the Live Limelight crew tomorrow and having a discussion on how we are going to proceed and possibly take in a show late tomorrow night.
Too bed early, and hopefully a good night of sleep and peaceful dreams before tomorrow.
Healthwise: Breathing was good today, but my feet have swollen up again and haven't really been down to normal size in about a week now. The feet are swollen enough that making putting on my sneakers a nuisance and that makes me wanting to go out less. But hopefully that will improve as time goes on. Overall, I would have to say today was an blah health day.

I'm back.
Wow, it's been way too long since I've last updated here. An awful lot has happened since the middle of May last year until today. In a nutshell, my cousin married a wonderful woman. I hurt my side/ribs. I have seen some amazing concerts including my favorite band: Rush. I ended up in hospital and physical rehab for three months. I've recovered a lot since my coming home in March. Still getting there, and almost back to where I was last year. My sister had a baby and she bought a house. I've started a website for live local music review called Live Limelight. Oh, I am doing a lot more photography - mostly live bands in night clubs, and I'm loving it!
Healthwise: Today I'm doing ok, the heat was manageable and the air quality was not terrible. I'm trying to get proper sleep these days, it has been erratic.
