Thing #5: Flikr

I got lost in all the photos. I went from exploring, to viewing travel images, self portraits, to "how" to on document photography and photoshop! A great resource for learning and thinking outside the box in photography!

Thing #4 ... Register Your Blog

I spoke to Vaughn Brohom at the end of June. She confirmed that my blog is set up! She was also very helpful in giving me assistance for my daughter; who is looking to become a teacher in the Houston area. As it turns out Andrea has been hired as a first grade teacher in the Spring Branch School District. I am not sure the name of the school however her training began yesterday! Thank you Vaughn!

Thing #3 cont'd . . . Adding my Avatar

This took a few hours and letting go for a day ~ more cut, paste, delete, trial and error. I kept at it and it feels very satisfying now that it is done! Phew - the most challenging "Thing" accomplished!!!

Thing #3 . . . Creating a Blog

I did it! ~ after much trial and error!

Thing # 2 . . . 7 & 1/2 Habits

The easiest habit for me to follow is #1 begin with an end in mind. When I set out to learn something I have a good understanding of what I will accomplish, how it will help me and how I will feel when I've achieved it. The hardest habit for me to follow is #4 have confidence as a competent learner. Attitude is everything. Often times I feel intimidated and therefore procrastinate. However, I usually find that once I get started, it is much easier than I initially anticipated. I just have to keep playing!
