I read the first two harry potter books more times than I think I've read any other books. Of course, that was when I was in elementary school. So as I began the book I hardly remembered it. I am remembering more as I get further in, re imagining all my mental images. I'm glad I'm not in school so I wont have to dodge homework to read it. It feels like it has been a long time since i've read a book i can really sink into. It is very refreshing. I've been wanting to experience the series again for a while, reflections to come.

I went on two photo adventures this week, having this place to decorate with images has brought my camera back off the shelf, which is nice. It reminds me how little I actually know about photography. I shot in Manual on both adventures, and have very little to show for it, hopefully that will be motivation to learn more. I'll share what is worth looking at.

Focus. Not one of my top skills. Jumping randomly from task to thought to project to chore and back again in a different order is more my style (if you couldn't tell from this post). However that does not lead to being very skilled at any one thing. January is coming to an end, and with it the new years productivity boost. Today it was 60 degrees out, its time to think about planting flowers again, and tend to the plants that lived through the winter. 

I want to plant more creativity in my life this year, I just can't decide which kind to plant. Sewing, photography, image making, typography. Or live with my consumerism, and scroll scroll scroll.

I'll keep my goals a secret. I'll tell you when I'm done.
