2012 Begins

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!

Health Status: After 2 1/2 weeks of excitement I'm having a very rough breathing start to today.

It's Tuesday - Really

Today is Tuesday. Seriously. Had some good conversations with a couple of my Canadian friends online today. Went out with Wuggie for dinner and fun tonight. Good times.

Found out that Dad goes in for surgery at 8am (NST) or about 6:30am, my time. I feel horrible that I didn't get around to call him tonight, but once I got around to calling, it was really late his time. With him having to get up so early, I did not want to risk waking him.

Chatted with my sister, she is stressing over this more than she tried to let on a week ago. I'm very concerned. I'm used to being the sick one, having to be waiting and hoping for the best while not able to do anything really SUCKS! This makes me realize how much my family and close friends have gone through with me.

I tried to get to sleep earlier, but I can't sleep. I am going to stay up and call dad before he leaves for the hospital, about 4:15 am my time.

Health-wise: Congested this morning, but it cleared up by lunchtime after I finished breakfast and a pot of coffee. Left leg is feeling better since I've stopped wearing the cowboy boots and their heels.

Optimistic Outlook

Almost every day of this year has felt like things are going my way.  Things just seem to be falling into place and I am feeling a lot better than not.

I just ran back over my archive of horoscopes for this year, and the vast majority of them have been very positive.  Overall it looks like this is definitely going to be MY year!

I'm very happy with the way I have been feeling, and how I have been accomplishing my goals.  I feel much more comfortable with my photography and how it is improving.

I just seem to be 'happy' most of the time now.

Health-wise:  Today was a very good day, just a sore and achey back tonight.
