Where has all the motivation gone?

It has been too long since my last post! For those of you that have stopped by only to see nothing... I am very sorry :(

My life has been very busy. In May I took a trip to Reno to bowl in the Women's Nationals Tournament with my Mom and Dad and the boyfriend Joe. I didn't do very good but it was a very fun trip. I got to see Lake Tahoe and it was my very first time flying on an airplane at age 24. We stayed at the Silver Legacy Hotel and Casino and Joe and I won $450 at the black jack tables! Woohoo!

All the while the city had been working on the sewers in front of the house and today mid-December it is not done. It has been a long, painful, and annoying process!!! Most of the time from April to now we had not even been able to park on our street and we have no garage or alley access so it was a bit of a hassle.

Over the summer I did not get as much done as I had wanted. I slowly but surely worked on the basement but it is still not done :( . Although it is better. In September it was my birthday and Joe got me a drum set! I have been wanting to play drums since I was five years old, but my parents said no (they didn't want to deal with the noise). So when I got the drum set I had to make room for them. This gave me a push to get going in the studio. The drum set is now set up and I can still get to my studio so things are looking up. Although taking up another hobby is the last thing I need right now lol! The good thing is Joe is very supportive of my drumming and said he doesn't care how much noise I make as long as I am down there practicing.

In October I got really sick for almost 3 weeks. I had just gotten better by the time Halloween rolled around. It was a good thing I decided to buy my costume this year. I was She Ra Princess of Power and Joe went as Skeletor. This was a popular 80's cartoon for those who are lost :). We ended up making Joe's costume the night of our friends huge party and went home with best couple!!!

After Halloween and being sick was over I hardly had time to recover before it was Thanksgiving and now way to close to Christmas!!!! I will be posting some pictures from my adventures soon but in closing I would like to make a list of my goals for the coming year.

1. Get studio cleaned and organized once and for all..
2. Start the projects that I have been planning for so long.
3. Get my etsy store up and running.
4. Get more ebay done.
5. Post more regularly on blog.
6. Learn how to post on youtube.
7. Take more pictures of life.

I know those are for the most part pretty vague and seem super easy but sometimes I just feel so overwhelmed and think something is wrong with me and I ask myself where has all the motivation gone? I think that motivation is a funny thing because sometimes it sneaks up on you out of nowhere but sometime you have to go looking for it.
