I finally got around to going to one of those wine and paint places today. I dragged along Michelle and we were determined to have a great time.
Success!! :) What a blast this was! I was worried that my painting would look awful, but I think it turned out great. Michelle’s looked awesome too! The neatest thing about this class was that everyone was creating a similar painting, but each one looked different. They all had a bit of the person’s personality in it which really gave each piece a unique characteristic.
I love this! I can’t wait to do another one! :)

Lunch is served!
Avocado & Greek Yogurt Tuna Salad wrap w/ lettuce and feta cheese, side of grapes
I was amazed with how yummy this turned out. Sure, it doesn’t taste like mayonnaise…but it’s still good!
I also decided to start a plank challenge today. Every day starting today, I’m going to work on the plank in hopes of improving and getting stronger over time. It starts by holding the plank position for 10 seconds and increases little by little. Here I go building muscles and getting lean!

One thing I love about cooking with fresh fruits and veggies is how colorful everything is. It’s hard to stop taking pictures so I can actually cook the stuff.

Spent a little time outside in the cold taking photos of flowers. Didn’t stay too long though…cause it was cold! :)

Today was awesome. My favorite poet, Anis Mojgani, hosted an Open Studio at Serenbe. He had been nominated to attend a month long artist residency at Serenbe and today he opened up his studio to folks to come check out what he’s been working on. It was a like a little sneak peak into his creative mind. Simply. Amazing. We talked with him for a little bit and purchased another copy of his new book. He was kind enough to sign it and take a picture with me. :)
What an amazing experience. He is so down to earth, yet magical and inspiring. He also mentioned that he was hoping to do a reading towards the end of February…which I will do whatever I can to make sure we attend!

This showed up today. :) Will actually had these sent to the hotel in North Charleston while we were there this weekend, to say thank you. Unfortunately, I had already checked out of the hotel before they arrived. It’s so cute!

Errand day.
On a fun note though, I’m excited to start making my own candles. I’ve been researching it a bit and today I’m going to check out a few places and see what I can acquire locally.

I’m stuck.
Stuck in an unmotivated rut.
Days have passed…and nothing has been accomplished…
It’s nice that there are no emergencies or major stressful events at the moment, but why am I wasting my days doing nothing? There are clearly things that I need to do, even things that I want to do, but instead I lie around wasting time doing…nothing.
And the worst part is, I know I’m doing this…and don’t change.

I took the red eye back home last night.
Unfortunately, I made plans with a friend to meet for lunch…but took a “nap” before I needed to leave. Instead of sleeping for 1 hour…I slept for 4! I felt so bad that I stood her up! Luckily, I was able to see her later at her house.
I also made sure to stop by ‘Cue and see everyone. I missed those guys!
