I'll be honest, starting this years album was difficult. I was of course running behind on my 2013 album when we lost Eddie. And with that, I seemed to lose interest and I don't know, scrapping something that's so heart breaking felt wrong. So I kept putting it off. But enough is enough .... I've started. And I'm glad I did. So here they are; the first few pages of my 2014 album. I'm hoping to catch up in the next few weeks, but I'm not stressing over it. I have my photos all saved and I've been writing notes each evening; but I think sharing them here on my blog, might just help keep me motivated.
Our title page has our words for 2014 ... I know that Ali Edwards says choose one little word, well, I can't ... I want more :) ... so with that, we picked three. Simon chose the word Efficiency for his word and even has it as our screen saver. We chose FOCUS together, as that's what we want to do from now on, Focus on us and what we want in our lives, and what we want to do. ACCEPT came from me. I need to stop worrying what others think of me, and accept who I am and stop hiding; if people don't like it, that's not something I can change. I must stop worrying about it. I also need to accept others more, and let them get on with their lives.
So here we go;
Title page; with our words for 2014 ... Focus, Efficiency and Accept |
