The quest to make PL easy

OK so sometimes I bite off more that I can chew....Not always but sometimes.  AND at first with starting Project Life http://www.beckyhiggins.com/products/  I felt Oh Crap How can I keep this going?  I read blogs and do challenges to help me better my photo taking with the help of Becky and many other wonderful amazing and talented people.  I write notes to help me decide the direction I want to go. January was fun. EASY and really when I look back at previous traditional scrapbooks January, February and March are really not represented well.  There is just not that much happening like it July, August, September, October, November and December with all the birthdays, holidays and such.  NOW, January looks like we do something...and we do - LIFE.  As I think of the wonderful family and friends I have, I am excited to include them in my project to show how blessed I am.  This first day of February I set as my real start date of health...even though I took a picture of myself on 1-11-11 and weighed myself and measured too......all to finish up what happens to me on 11-11-11 - I also sat down and wrote down each day what I want to take a picture of.  AND I really only have 5 days of February that don't have a specific thing.  This is where my photo challenges will come in....on Becky's site she put up a challenge of having us take pictures of what we do....work, play and stuff   of each family member....I think that will be fun...and I can Highlight the people I love in the month of LOVE.  I am also a part of   Kelly Willette's Joy of Love class on line.  We are working with our cameras to learn more about them.  Something I should have done years ago when I first got my camera....Becky linked me to this originally so the challenge is the same....What they do....I can't wait to take that picture of each of my loved ones and what they do......I will post them when I take them.
