Been thinking about the upcoming year.. What to do differently, what I will accomplish.. I think it's going to be a good year since this year wasn't the greatest.

Nothing much has been happening lately. I've been getting a few hours at work each week it's keeping me alive.

I've been knitting like a crazy old lady trying to get 3 projects done before Christmas. I'll post pix on my craft account when they are finished.

I've also been working on my photography skills and I'm going through my pictures that I've taken recently and posting them to my photography account . I really hope to get enough money for Christmas so I can buy a digital camera. I've been using my cell phone and Mikey's camera. His camera is ok, but it's a bit old and most of the photos come out grainy. So if anyone is feeling generous just note me that you'd like to donate to the "Risa needs a digi cam fund"

This Christmas will be the first that I haven't been in Lompoc. I'll miss the traditional festivities, making rhubarb pie with Grandma, sitting on the swing with Stephie, and I still have yet to meet my new cousin Brooklyn. I'm hoping I'll be able to afford a trip back there soon. On the bright side it'll be a full house for Christmas here all 6 of us will be home and we are doing a secret santa with a bunch of friends. Should be tons of fun!!

So to all have a wonderful Christmas or holiday season whatever you prefer.

Believe you can change because only you are holding yourself back from success!!!
