Well hello, 2010. So nice to see you. This past year was full of changes for me, both personal and professional. I think that the coming year will be even better and I’m so excited at the potential it holds! Of course, that potential won’t be realized all by itself, and I’ve set some goals for myself that will help things move along more smoothly and keep me on track.
First up: more blogging! I can commit to one post per week, BARE MINIMUM. Hopefully more, but I know I can write at least one. I’m making that official, so feel free to call me out on it if you don’t here from me for more than a week! I know I don’t have a huge audience (hi, Mom!) but I owe it to all of you who do me the honor of stopping by once in a while to give you something new to entertain you!
Secondly: take more pictures! Um, hello Alexis, you’re a photographer, are you not? Isn’t that kind of, like, your job or something to take pictures? Yes, that’s true, but like many photographers, I’m guilty of shelving the camera in between jobs and not doing nearly enough personal photography projects and just shooting for fun. The quickest way to start producing stale images for my amaaazing clients is to ignore my own creative development, so I think it’s super important to have fun, keep learning, and experiment with my camera.
And my third public resolution: more running! I’ve been lazy lately. Really lazy. As with my blogging resolution, I’m committing to a number that I know is totally manageable: 10 miles per week. Will I run more than that? Some weeks, most definitely. But lately I’ve been going for weeks without running a mile, and I really miss it. I find that exercise is really important in keeping me on an even keel – too long between going to the gym or running, and I get crabby. Really crabby (Will is sitting beside me nodding vigorously. I’d take his word for it). I owe it to myself, to him, and everyone else around me to stay happy and healthy – so 10 miles a week it is!
So that’s all for my main resolutions. Sure, there’s lots of other little things I want to accomplish (as well as some big plans), but those are really all the ones you need to know about, you little snoops 
I hope you all had a safe New Year’s Eve that was exciting as you wanted it to be. In keeping with my apparent tradition (which I swear will be broken next year – I’m not too fond of it) I got hit hard with a bad cold and went to bed at 9:30pm. Oh, were you looking for the life of the par-tay? She’s right here, passed out from the Nyquil.
Tigger wishes all of you the very best in the coming year. Making resolutions is so tiring.
