New Year!! New Studio!! New Start!! New Sign!! New Me?…

So the other day I pulled into the YMCA parking lot, after not setting foot into the place since August…that’s right August…I really don’t want to talk about it…I dont’ want to talk about the fact that I spent 50.00 per month and didn’t go not ever once in the last 5 month…ugh…crazy..just plain crazy and stupid..So here I am pulling into the parking lot..just got find a spot….ok maybe in this row…or in this row…oh gosh here is one..waaaaay in the overflow parking lot…Hmmmm guess I am not the only one who is back on the exercise wagon.. Why do we do this every year? Why do we start out making newness, promises and all those crazy promises…so here I go, I am gonna get back at it again. Since I moved my studio outside the home, I have struggled with the balance of  living the healthy active lifestyle that I need to keep wieght off of my body, and with running a full time demanding, successful photography studio…. So this year after moving into a brand new dream studio, that I have huge new exiting plans for, I plan to just do the best I can. No extreme weightloss programs that I usually fail cuz I put too much stress on it, no programs that I pay for and don’t make work..none of that. I am  just going to make an effort of eating better choices most of the time and to get my exercise in on a regular weekly basis. I might take a class, or go on a diet thrught out the year here and there, but no crazy promises. It just does not work for me.

So on to the New Studio News! So 2011…it was one of those years that was very bitter than sweet…The news of having to move out of my old studio was a bit traumatic, but then at the same time/or almost the same week, I had the anticpation of a brandnew larger than ever space awaiting completion. The completion took much longet than originally comunicated, but in the end it was worth the wait. It is the most amazing space I could dream of. The camera room alone is over 800 sq feet. I have a huge room for projection and a huge office and production space. Although with any new space, there is much to do..to decorate, and to …well just do… So many things are on the horizon for our little..(eh-hem) big space. So I just can’t wait to get them all going…but this is where my learned patience and perseverance has paid off over the last few years…Perseverance…that is the most diffucult yet wonderful thing I have ever learned in my life… There is one thing that always wins over everything..is perseverance!!! It is a powerful thing…So on that note…

!There was an official newletter sent out this week. We have so many exiting things in store for you this year. With such a gorgeous new space, who wouldn’t?.. We will be running lots of fun specials, lots of new products to decorate your walls with and now we have in house ordering.
