oh well for excuses as to why i haven’t written since Day One. i’ve been attempting to conquer my list. 27 things.
2. core fusion. i’ve switched to yoga, hip hop and running. i’m up to 4-5 times each week, and i’ve been working out consistantly for 4 solid months. and i’m not exaggerating. ok, so in the past i’ve lied to my doctor — you know the “how often do you work out” question, i usually fib a little and tell them more than usual. but this is all for real. Yay.
4. launch a new business. done and done. www.maybooksonline.com. i’m revamping the website, so please forgive it’s simplicity. i’ll have a new one by next week. what a fun new company, i’m simply having a blast with it!
7. hip hop. go powerhouse of dallas. gotta love Gino.
9. burning candles. found this great one at urban outfitters for $12. i’m addicted.
13. golf. i’ve been “practicing” my swing, err.. attempting to hit over 150 yards . . .and have been testing out various clubs at golf galaxy. looks like i’m a callaway big bertha kind of gal. i seem to love those.
11. website. she’s finally done! www.micamaydesign.com. prob. my favorite thing done off the list this year!
16. make-up. well, considering i had to buy All New makeup, brushes, curling iron, etc. because mine was stolen off the street at 5am . . . i think i’m doing okay here. it was a sad day.
18. paper dork. going to a paper seminar on may 16th at clampitt paper. it’s okay — they’re paper people. i’m SUCH a dork for this. but what can i say? it truly helps my business.
1. books. i’ve been cranking them out. i’ve even thrown in a few others in the mix, but they are pretty much “non books” so i won’t mention those. (for ex: shopaholic takes manhattan. see? a non-book. i told you.)
jan. Free Publicity. this was a quick but useful read about how to gain PR for your company.
feb. Eat. Pray. Love. i do like oprah, but i’m not a freak about her or anything. i really liked this book — it was a nice crossover between entertaining and inspiring. now i want to travel! oh wait . . . that’s ALWAYS been the case.
mar. Searching for God Knows What. this was much better than blue like jazz (in my humble opinion). it was a lot less bitter and i found myself nodding at several of his points. i loved his little blurb about communion . . . it’s pretty much how i view. anywhere there is wine and food (preferably cheese!) and friends, it’s a perfect time to give thanks and celebrate the goodness of God and His sacrifice for us.
april. Cold Tangerines. thanks rachel for the recommendation!! this was such a fun read. i feel like i was writing the book myself at several points and it made me smile a lot. Loved It.
