It counts because I say it counts :P

On our trip home from Thanksgiving Weekend in Arizona we sat in line with thousands of others traveling this strip of freeway. While in the Indio Valley area I noticed how pretty the sun setting was and decided to try to snap a few photos of it. Of course none of them really came out in any 'great' photographic quality, but I have decided that since I took the photo I am going to count it towards my 2 dozen shots....because it helps make that long drive home all the better :P

Buy a jeep, four wheeler, boat, or jet ski.

Yes number 85 can now be scratched off the list. After hard thinking, playing and trying to pick what I would use the most right away I am now the proud owner of a Polaris Sportman 4x4. She's pretty, I can't wait to play on her and get out, way out in the country and take tons more pictures! I wont be keeping it here in California, its cheaper to keep it in Arizona and not pay the additional fee's California likes to charge and for now that means I don't need to get a trailer, but I have a feeling the kids will be begging like crazy for me to get another REALLY soon! :)

Another sunset and where am I headed?

Its been a while since I posted an update on my list here. It hasn't been forgotten by any means and in some ways I have been working towards some of the items here that are listed.

This past weekend Dennis drove me up to the White Mountains in Arizona. By Greer I freaked out a bit or maybe its more like I spazzed out a bit :P and Dennis pulled over for me to snap some photos of the sun setting. The moon looked fantastic in the Eastern sky, but unfortunately I dont really know how to capture the moon when it looks huge, or if that is even possible to do. But the sunset was just as pretty.

I have been putting away money each month and I am just about ready to cross off #12. When I have time to get to the gym, which hasn't been as frequent as Id like I think about doing number 13...does that count? :) Number 15 I get within 2 days of quite reguarly and then the kids are out with their father or something and I can't help myself and have to go to Panera Bread! :) Number 17 is now highlighted in red since I am actively working on. #43 I am hoping to tackle for Christmas gifts this year and even number 76 I have been working on without tears. The rest that are highlighted in red I am still working towards, I think I just have tackled so many recently and my life is so full right now I don't feel pressed to be hitting the list quite as hard as I was. But just give me time :) just give me time :)
