been a while...

life has been, full. Not sure where to begin or what all to share. First I feel like I should share that right now my life is not much of a garden and well neither is my garden. I would have to say both my garden and my life are a bit of a mess. I want to get back on track. I want life to be simple and easy. I'm just not sure how to get back there or if I can get there. I know that life is extra busy at the moment. So hopefully when things settle down here in about a month I can get back on track.

As for the good things in my life, because I really do want to focus on the good...

For the most part I'm running. The last week or two I haven't gotten to run as much as I would like but I had worked up to just under four miles which is the farthest I have run. I enjoy it and it's one of the few things I do for myself. The other thing I do just for myself is photography.

I have always loved photography and have dabbled in it since a younin' but other than a few books I haven't really studied or really applied myself. Lately I read blogs galore and have learned a lot of basics and maybe a few not so basics. It's been fun but I still find myself struggling. For a while their I was taking myself too seriously and getting all bent out of shape and Douglas reminded me that if I'm not doing it for fun then why am I doing it? Just focus on doing it for fun and that's what I plan on doing.
