i am convinced. i know that writing down what needs to be done, frees up my mind to think about other things, rather than continuously repeating over and over in my head, the list of things that i need to do. why did i get out of the habit of list making? i love it. i love the feeling of getting it down on paper and letting go. i love checking things off the list and feeling a sense of accomplishment. HOWEVER, with my personality, i have to be careful with listmaking. i can easily fall into the trap of making my life all about the LIST. and become a slave to tasks, rather than living freely, and enjoying the moments. SO, i've decided to try to keep myself in check with the listmaking and hopefully experience the positives of it, and not get so into it, that my perspective gets warped. i really did accomplish a whole lot yesterday with my list.
tonight, tom and i are going on a sort of date. we're heading in to lincoln to see kirby, amber and addie, and we're planning to hit the antique mall too. plus, i have the new "marie claire idees" magazine, which i plan to savor on the drive. i can't read french, but the visuals in that magazine are over the top! i think i need to step away from the computer and regroup. our weekend is going to be kinda crazy-but lots of fun-tom is golfing tomorrow and then all of us girls are meeting up with the guys for dinner afterwards. we're going to a little hole in the wall bar/grill which has the best bar burgers! plus we have a birthday party and i have 3 photoshoots.
i did a shoot of michaela recently. love her big brown eyes and freckles! the light was beautiful and she's photogenic and i had so much fun doing these photos!
i love doing senior photos! thanks michaela and mylee!
time to get to work. i hope you have a great friday! God bless!
