Um, so yeah, it has just occured to me that I have not posted a single update this year! I could blame it on moving, which in this case is actually mostly to blame. Or one could say: "Hey Lizzy, since you've taking up 'not sleeping', doesn't that leave you with 27 hours a day to write?" My answer could be 'yes', but in this case it's not, because let's face it: we all know a day lasts 56 hours when you can't sleep.

Anyhoo, a recap of what the dealio has been:
1. I moved, and still have plenty of boxes to unpack
2. I unpacked some boxes
3. Spent some quality time with friends ("back home") and family
4. More boxes await unpacking
5. Have started my part of the KICK ASS costume my sister and I are making for this years Elf Fantasty Fair
6. Tried to stay zen between 5 cats who don't always see eye-to-eye
7. Looking for work (my least favorite thing; I'd rather clean the litterboxes with my toothbrush).
8. Moved some boxes so it looks like there are less
9. Realised I posted nothing yet this year (and that some pics from previous posts have gone missing...)
10. Posted first update this year.
What I have also started doing as of the 1st of this month, is a fun thing called "Photo a day". Each day of the month you have a topic, you take a pic of that, or something related to that and post in on your FB, Twitter, Instagram, Blog or whevertheheckyouwant. It's hella cool, especially if you can get some friends to join in on it.
I've found that it really helps (me) to have a (small) goal for that day, I look at things differently and more important: in a more positive way. It's also fun to see how others interpret and capture the 'word of the day' :)
And between providing my sister with the proverbial "fresh one", taking long bubble baths with my wonderful boyfriend, and tending to my 'Pixel People' on my Iphone (don't play it, it's ridiculously addictive!!), I have also been busy getting to know and taking pictures of my new 'hood':
So, with all that said and done, it's time for me to embark on my next adventure: Cooking dinner. I bid thee farewell and tune in next time for another action-packed episode!
