Online courses - 4 changes

I signed up for some on line classes. The first one is designing crochet softies. I may not be using the course materials for stuffed items but figure it will help with my hat business.

The second course I took was on product photography. Again I felt this will help with my little Etsy business. I especially need help since I broke my lens on my Canon Rebel SLR and have to rely on old little digital cameras at this time. Also, this time of year there are less days with good natural lighting so I must make the best of it.

Third  - online dance class. I am sad to say I won't be coming to the January -March classes as I can not afford the fees at this time. I will have to practice at home.

Fourth - I found a free online yoga site. I must re-introduce yoga practice into my life for fitness and general health.

That's a good, optimistic start to the new year isn't it?

Dance Class

Tonight I will be going to a 1 1/2 hour dance class. I'm not sure how aerobic this will be - it's a free class and it will most likely be more social than physical - but it'll definitely help get the body moving.

A Change in Direction

I'll leave my old posts with my commentaries on things that I was curious about as I change directions. I'm going to try an online diary type of blog documenting changes I will make. I'm not going to make a big deal about it or make it public as I curious as to how you'll find me and when.

I don't know if I can keep up the daily challenge, but I will try.

I am not one for making resolutions and the dates are really insignificant, it's just the right time for me to make changes in my life. I'd rather start them all now, than find out in a year from now that I was successful and then have to go through all the work to post the changes, successes, failures etc.

I prefer to be a person who talks about what I HAVE  done as opposed to what I WILL do - as I find many people are big on announcing their plans and then rarely follow through.

If you have already found me, I welcome you to comment and participate in this real time experiment.

Here we go!!
