Let's get on with it

2014.  A new year, and with it, a new outlook on life.  Yes, I know I've made the 'resolution' before to do more things, but this year, things feel different.  And I think I know why.

I'm a nomad.  I've moved at least once a year, every year, for the last 9 years.  Often, 2-3 times year.  I left for college and never looked back, way back in  '05.  I constantly have been trying to better myself and my living situation, never 'settling' for what was in front of me.  But now?  I think I have it figured out.

I'm married, have a great career, and my wife and I just bought our first home together.  I'm locked in now, mortgage and everything.  So I'm here, I'm planting roots, and I'm going to grow.  So I've embarked on a year long adventure in a few key areas.  One of which, imaginary reader, is this blog.  I'm hoping to keep at least a weekly update of things and goings on about all the projects I'm working on.

This week?  The Sketch-a-day challenge.  Brittany has been inspiring me as of late to work on my 'art.'  I've never been much of an artist, but I have been known to doodle from time to time.  And you know what?  I miss it.  So she challenged me, as she usually does in her wonderful way, to be better than I was.  So for the next 100 days, we're having a "competition" to see who can improve their art the most.  Follow us on our Deviant Art page Mikey-vs-Britterz and watch as our art either improves, or doesn't.  But I am determined to follow through with it. 

Same goes for this blog, and with luck, Youtube as well.  Yes, I intend to get back into Video making.  What will I video?  That remains to be seen, but I am hard at work building my home office into a multi-media studio where I hope to spend time bettering myself, my writing, and my art.

So, let's get on with it.
