Rainbows and Rangers

I now remember why I never completed a full 365-day photo challenge.

It’s HARD.

Unless you carry your camera with you 24/7 and or set out a deliberate time each day to shoot photos, it just ain’t gonna happen. (It’s also probably why I mainly shoot on my iPhone and Instagram now.)

Both things I captured this week were at a decent distance. The first, a rainbow I saw on the way to dinner Tuesday night.

A few resolutions for 2009

I’ve been thinking through things I want to get done this next year.

I’m hoping to keep things simple this year. I hope this year is less about me and more about others. I hope to simplify in areas where I can. I hope to love more and I hope to give more.

Here are a few other specifics I’m wanting to do this year.

  • Restarting – and completing the Flickr 365 challenge. One photo of me per day for an entire year.
  • Publishing my first book – St. Peter’s Brewery.
  • Read through the entire Bible again this year. (I plan to use YouVersion on my Blackberry to help me get it done.
  • Read at least 20 books this year.
  • Spend more quality time with my Life.
  • Ask her less annoying questions of my Life.

A few things I’d also like to shoot for but I haven’t moved into the “goal” category quite yet…

  • Finish paying off our consumer debt
  • Plant a garden
  • Recycle more
  • Consume less
  • Give 10% of my income away

What are your goals for the new year?
