It’s time again for the OLW blog hop!
One Little Word (OLW) is a class being run by Ali Edwards at Big Picture Classes. My One Little Word for 2011 is Create. (Other posts on my OLW can be found here.)
During the month of May we had to think about what we had done and what we want to do. What goals do we have related to our word? May was my month to create and do some soul searching about what I want to do. I took 4 weeks off work as I seriously needed a break. I used this time to finish some online courses I’d signed up for but not completed. I participated in my first ever LOAD (Layout a Day). I also started looking into some possible business ideas. It was a rocky month emotionally but satisfying in that I got so many things completed and I think people are starting to realize how important this stuff is to me.
Below are my opening page and my documentation pages. I ended up with 15 goals… and actually culled it down from my original list.
I’m looking forward to what June has to offer.
Please hop on over and visit Jenn and check out her One Little Word. There are more fabulous people participating in this blog hop which commences at 8am PST (Pacific Standard Time). They are listed below if you would like to start from the beginning….

Wow, you’ve set lots of goals! Good luck on all your endeavors! Thanks for posting along with us!
I am impressed with all your goals and how neatly they are laid out. I really need to take advantage of Ali’s pages from May and organize my goals. Best of luck with everything!
Great work this month. Sometimes we all need to take a break and reflect. I hope your plans continue to come together.
Sam, I’ve been looking for you! You were the winner of my blog hop giveaway last month! Email me your address and I’ll send your craft goodies out to you. My email address is laew@aol.com
Love the look of your documentation pages!
Yeah for you and yeah for LOAD! I did it in February and this past month I only got through about half of my pages ~ but I am thrilled at the creative flow that happens from stepping into the mess! Don’t you think it forces your creative sparks to start flying?
I love your listing out you goals…you will see progress, it is always the best way for me to get the most done~

I am thrilled you are doing LOAD again ~ me too. We can be load sisters!
Great job with your goals! I haven’t tried LOAD yet, but I’m thinking about it. Maybe once I finish Finding Photo Freedom.
well done with all the goals – is that your handwriting? If it is can I just say it is beautiful. I love all of your goals and often think if only I could take a few days out complete all my tasks I’d be so much happier – lucky for making that decision and making it work for you xx
Wow you have a fun task list. I’m thinking about taking the Mother LOAD too and I wish I would have signed up for SJ’s Photo Freedom. Next time.
What a great list! You’ve acheived so much already, awesome to see you actually using some of the classes you signed up for – inspired me to do the same!
So cool that you are learning Photoshop Elements! I love digiscrapping and I’ve got a monthly free live class over over at my site http://mshanhun.com/category/workshops/ would love to see you there!
your may intro page is very clever.
i wish you well on your 15 goals…

Great job with so many creative goals! You must be one very busy lady. Keep up the good work… you’ll have so much to show for your efforts at the end of your ‘create’ year!
