Someone made an actual legit comment on an old post this afternoon and it came through to me. Which brought me back to the blog to read...which made me wistful. Which brought me here.

It's going to be a year for personal growth and development. It's going to be a year of transformation and change. It's going to be a good year.
This year already, I have signed up for a DietBet, started eating better, kept running-even in the snow, committed myself to systematic giving, and now--Boot Camp.

So...one day, when I get around to it, you may get some rather old, rather mundane posts about being out of practice. But likely not. It's one of myriad reasons I gave myself some grace with this resolution business.

I went through all the links on my sidebar, and have realized that less than 50% of them are still active blogs. Makes me sad. I have more than a couple hundred blogs in my feed-reader at any one time, and it makes me quite sad when any of them give up the ghost.

She's a budding photographer that is doing Project 365 again. She asked on Twitter the other day who was interested in joining her.
I am no photographer, as anyone who's ever seen my photos on this blog can verify. So I decided to do a text-based project of my own.
