One On 1 Blog Hop - February Update

Collage1
Well this blog hop snuck up on me so I am a little less than prepared but these are some of my photos for the month.  


With the word FOCUS these are some of the things I am trying very hard to keep in my sights this year:



  • Scrapbooking - I've completed 2 months of the Twelve course and already I am behind, but I am okay with this - I am loving the inspiration this course is bringing me and the new friendships I am forging.

  • Growing veggies - the summer patch hasn't been brilliant but I am learning and planning on the winter crops  - must make the patch 'Spencer' proof (my pooch who loves to eat tomatoes)!

  • I downloaded the Project 365 app to my phone and I am trying very hard to take a photo a day - it is helping with my Project Life album - which I must photograph and show you sometime soon.

  • Whilst Duken may not be for me (great book), I am concentrating on a living a healthy life.

  • Little pots of goodness for the kids and I every day - encouraging healthy habits!

  • My computer at work shows me focusing on the job I need to do - I run a business for someone and I need to remain focused for this to be a success.

  • Water - I have to drink 2 litres every day!


I haven't achieved all of these tasks through February but I've had a very good go at them.  


March brings newness, clean slates and a determined FOCUSed mind.


Time to hop along to visit Devon for an update on her OLW journey.  Thanks for visiting this month and I hope to be able to show you some completed pages next month.

Cynthia said...

Nikki I love your post! Your photos are great and your focus is definitely clear. I am behind on Twelve too but glad to see you are not putting too much pressure on yourself about it. Thank you for sharing.

Catherine said...

Nikki, thanks for sharing your thoughtful words with us. It is a journey, is it not? : )

Great job. Love the pics. Fun scrapbook layout. :) I can't wait to grow veggies this summer. Your veggies look fabulous!

Cheri said...

You are probably doing better than you think Nikki! I'm also doing the BPC Trifecta - MMEW, OWL, and Twelve - and it is a lot to take on, with a lot of areas of life seeking improvement and involvement all at once. Hang in there! Together we are going to have a beautifully focused year!

Rebekah said...

What a beautiful layout from your Twelve class! Nice OLW documentation too! TFS with us.

Nikki, thanks for sharing. Sometimes our words are completely with us, even if we aren't documenting them in photos. I look forward to seeing what else you share as you continue this journey.

I really like your photo collage. Focus is certainly speaking in your life. I like the 1958 photo, too.

Jen Ritchie said...

Lisa said...

I think your pics are great and I love that you're ok with where you are. Keep on keepin' on :)

Kaylea said...
