June! You made it! Good to see you. May was… a running month. I got 65 miles in. Which is short of my goal of 75 – but not by much. And I can't complain about sixty-five-freaking-miles. So I won't. The big test of whether or not it was all worth it is THIS SUNDAY…

April flew. Like literally. I just watched my to-do list fold itself into a paper airplane and fly out the window. Aside from a few days of feeling terrible, it was a great month. Good for the blog, that's for sure. But the shop needs some work. Maybe new products? Maybe a sale? Maybe a…

This year is one quarter over. ALREADY. Paul and I have almost been married a year. ALREADY. Today is my parents' 30 year wedding anniversary. ALREADY. (Love you M&D) Time is flying at warp speed and it is looking like April will race through even faster. I am simultaneously overwhelmed and inspired. Which is better…

If I had an ELISE JOY team meeting scheduled for today I would say : "Good job this past quarter, team. We are right on schedule with product roll outs and are doing much better with expense management. I am happy to see that past workshops have all been turned into PDFs and I am…

Check plus for February. Lots of sewing, lots of running (46 miles – 15.5 outside), lots of projects. I got my 2011 book started, my 25@25 book finished and our bedroom decorated. And the blog design workshop is progressing. It's happening. For sure. And after much thought, I decided it will be for Typepad users…

And here we go. My plan came to me yesterday while on the treadmill. I now have a goal for the next year and I am calling it "26 Projects." (So far making the logo was the most fun part.) I am going to be tackling 26 medium to big craft projects before my 27th…

Every year for the past three years, I have made a list of things to accomplish before my next birthday. Last year, I created a list of 25. After 365 days, I completed just 14 on the list. Not bad, but not great. (I do not think I am going to make a 26@26 list…

See you, January. Overall, it was very productive month. The best part? I ran 51 miles. And 19 of those were ran outside which is something new and as it turns out, works much better for me. Though I am far from the rest of this year's goals, I think I'll get run 365 miles…

I saw this post at Oh Happy Day on Monday and loved it. Jordan made big dream statements and three years later is almost there. OH MAN, HOW COOL. Paul and I have been talking a lot about our own BIG LIST recently and I jotted our main items down. It will take a bit…

I've been thinking a lot the past couple days about doing some sort of daily/near daily personal album in 2011. Right now, it looks like Paul will be deployed for most of the second half of the year which means there will be a lot of just me time. And perhaps an over-share, but we…
