Miscellaneous Monday…NEW stuff i gotta share

Happy Monday!

Well, I found out that it’s kinda fun to bring snow indoors and play around with it. :o)…We finally got some NEW white stuff where I live.  It arrived on Christmas Eve!  Beautiful!

What else is NEW?  Well, I’ve been thinking a lot about being ultra aware of things lately.  I started using a NEW budget tracking software system that my sister recommended.  I have always been really careful with our money.  I thought I was pretty ‘aware’ of where our funds went.  But with this system, I’m ULTRA-aware and I think that’s a good thing.  The system is called YNAB (You Need A Budget).

I’m also tracking my eating and exercising more…thus I’m being ULTRA-aware of what goes into my bod also.  It sure takes time, but I think awareness is key to successfully reaching goals.  Tracking is essential!  FYI…there are TONS of food journaling apps etc.

And lastly…I got a NEW “AppleTV” gadget.  I think I’ll like it a lot…I’ll let you know my review in a future post.   I don’t watch a lot of TV, but when I do, my biggest pet peeve is having to watch commercials.  Therefore I have to shell out big money just to have a DVR with our cable system and now the AppleTV…basically for the same reason.  :o)

Have a great Monday!  Do or Learn or BUY something NEW!

I took this photo on my phone on JUNE 17th!  It was rainy in the valley and snowy in the mountains that day!  Around here we say, ‘If you don’t like the weather, just wait 5 minutes and it’ll change!’

This view was from a ‘Parade of Homes’ house my sister and I were touring through…they had a lovely view of the mountains, but they were covered in fog and clouds that day.   Have a great Friday!  Do or Learn something NEW!

NEW edits of old photos

Happy Tuesday!  I’ve been editing a few old photos lately.  This photo of my son was taken with a standard point and shoot camera quite a few years ago. {The shadow is my favorite part of this photo} Thank goodness for digital photography! What did we ever do without it?!?   Now to decide if I just keep them on my computer…print them, order a photo book, or what!  Any ideas?  They are all pretty random old photos. Hmmmm… let me know what you think.

Thursday’s Thought

“No matter how many plans you make or how much in control you are, life is always winging it.”  ―  Carroll Bryant

The Carroll Bryant quote above reminded me of my morning!  I was NOT in control and my plans did NOT go as I thought they would…I was winging it!  However the result was that I had the opportunity to snap these two photos this morning.  Sometimes “winging it”  turns out to be ok.  Happy Thursday!
