Premeditated failure & another break

I failed at both of my challenges that I took on for this month. But I failed in the manner that I'm OK with. I decided to stop them to maintain a focus on my family and spending our last few days of summer/start of fall together uninterrupted.

So I'm a quitter.

I'm going to take another step back from my blog for a bit here. This is to just soak up as much time with my little family right now while the weather is still nice as I can. There will be walks and time at the parks, cook outs and bonfires, play dates and date nights, and I'll love them all. There is also another project that I would like to work on and that will take a bit of focus.

I will be back, don't worry. Check you in October.

A glutton for punishment

or another way to pass the days of September: I'm doing not 1, but 2, challenges this month.

First up, the 750 Words Challenge. I figured this will be a great place to brain dump at the end of the day or first thing in the morning and it might just help me to focus on my plans for the short term and the long term now that our family plans have been figured out.

Second, Miss B. at The Blah, Blah, Blahg is hosting another session of Souvenir Foto School. I used to be really into photography (film), even taking a class in high school, but I just thought this would be fun. I don't have a fancy camera, just our standard point and shoot, but I'm excited to see what I can capture.

Wish me luck.
