List-It Tuesday, Jan 8th...What's New!

 We're ba-ack!
Aimee over at Artsyville is at it again...and we are "listing" into the new year.
First Topic: What's New!
1) I can no longer upload a photo directly with my little insert image tool, instead I have to insert every photo I may use into a separate Picasa file and upload it from there. It's broke.
2) It snowed...and it has been cold since and during the holidays.
3) I was given some of those teeny I-Pod speakers for the holidays and life will never be the same. I love listening to Internet radio stations from all over the world. So far Birdsong radio (from the UK) is my bird's fave. I love The Paris Cafe, though I have no idea what they are saying...I don't really care, I just imagine myself someplace sunlit, and french.
4)A former bead nut, over the holidays I revisited a long forgotten project and...gasp...finished it!
5) For 2013 I started a photo-a-day project through Flickr. I got this idea from friends who do this every year (especially friend Jes Lee, who takes great photos!) and I'm finding it to be fun, and challenging. If you are on Flickr, stop by and add me to your contacts. I'm MNWRITERGIRRL

That's what's new, now make your list, attach it to Aimee's blog and tell us, what's new with you!

I love the idea of listening to a French radio station. How cool. (Those iPod speakers are the best, right?)

BTW, I have to say, the journal pages you have posted over on the left of your page are stunners. Glad you ahve that doing that. (It may not be new, but I'm really noticing it tonight. :)

I do wish I could pick up internet or satellite radio in my car. Local stations -- no comment. Not a thing new in my world except I have to remember that it is 2013 not 2012. Oh, to be in England or France...

Love your new necklace! I will have to check out internet radio. And, it makes me happy that your bird has a favorite radio station! :-) Happy New Year!

I'm so glad you are jumping on the 365 wagon! It is a ton of fun and a great way to look back and see how you spent your days for a year. Good luck! ; )

sorry to hear about your uploading problems. A photo a day is a great idea - makes you pick up that camera (or phone) and go outside!
Enjoy! {:-Deb

Maery, I've already written 2012 many times at work. I also wish I could get done of these new radio stations I've found online, in my car. Not possible.I will have to be happy with what I have.

Zoma, Happy New Year to you too!
Yes, KC loves his tunes....he complains when my iPod isn't here...he looks for it when I'm gone.
I like Tune In Radio...it's free!

It really is fun Jes...though twice now I've gotten up in the morning and wondered what to take photos of : )

Lynn Fisher said...

Storybeader, yes I have no idea why suddenly I can't upload photos normally ...it's weird.
Yes, so far I'm loving the photo project!
