gc365
Hey family, friends, followers, infrequent readers, and stumbled-upon-by-accident-ers! In honor of the fast-approaching end of the year I have done some thinking about what I wanted my resolution(s) to be for 2012. I have already gotten halfway through the Ease Into 5K program, registered for a 5K at the end of January, AND am trying to consistently maintain a food diary with MyFitnessPal, so I felt that any kind of health and fitness related goal would be a little redundant (although of course maintenance will be key in 2012). So I started thinking of other projects I would like to undertake and LO, unto me a new blog project was born! And I laid it in a tumblr, wrapped it in a fancy template, and called it gc365. My goal is to document my daily life through photos, one a day for at least a year. A lot of people have done this "project 365" and had albums on facebook, but posting to Tumblr directly from my iPhone (yeah, I'm super fancy, y'all) is really ridiculously easy and I am all about simplicity when it comes to sticking with something. SO. I'll still be posting here as regularly as I can manage, but feel free to follow along with me on my photo journey as well... and prepare yourself for gratuitous cute kiddo photography, probably via Instagram. What can I say, they rock a filtered photo.

adventures of bubba and the bug
(A beginning draft of a children's book I've been ruminating on...)
One day (probably a Wednesday), Bubba and the Bug set out on a grand adventure.
Now in most books about grand adventures, you begin with an "unlikely pair". But Bubba and the Bug are about as likely as they come because, you see, they are brother and sister.
Bug is the fearless leader of the two, a singer, dancer, painter, lover of pink and voice of many a stuffed bear.
She's mostly the fearless leader because Bubba is a baby.
Most grand adventures also involve a great deal of complicated traveling, but Bubba and the Bug had nap times to consider, so for this grand Wednesday, travel was limited to wherever Fancy Car might take them In Town.
The Bug surveyed the land from her Special Seat and announced to Bubba that the adventures of the day would begin with errands.
But both were disappointed about the decidedly non-adventure-y feeling of errand running.
(What should Bubba and the Bug do next? What do you think?)
