365 days. wow.
Thank you, each and every one of you, who have supported me and encouraged me as I made my way through this project. You have no idea what it has meant to me.
and now?
I’m going to kick back, put up my feet and raise my glass to myself (at least until tomorrow).
Yes I am.
Take that project365. You brought it and I kicked your ass.
*ahem
(turn up your volume .. I love this song)
HAPPY NEW YEAR! May 2011 bring you love and laughter and your every heart’s desire.
xoxo

Thanks Alison!
Happy New Year to you too!
Jan, the video was fabulous! I loved seeing all your pictures again… made me get teary eyed… no kidding. So great to have “met” you this year. I love your photos and your wit and energy. Happy 2011.

Best comment ever :)
I feel likewise, and so glad you’re doing 52 weeks with me! woooot!
Happy New Year, hon :)
Janice I have really enjoyed your 365 project and look forward to the next one. Your photos and writing are something I have looked forward to each and every day.
Really? Thanks Ruth!
Oh MY GOODness!!! Fantastically fabulous! Well done sweet pea! I too got misty eyed watching your little slide show of the past 365 days! (Great song btw). I’m loving your sparkler cupcake =)

Thanks girl :)
Here’s to 2011!
52 weeks – piece of cake ;)
I just love that video!! I could watch it over and over (and I’m sure I will). I’m so glad I found your blog (I’m not sure how, but I did) and I look forward to Project52!!
Thanks hon!
I think it was Creativity Boot Camp?
Not sure, but I’m glad too. You’re a wonderful (and talented!) woman :)
Fantabdamnulous! I enjoyed each and every shot, J!!! I know it was a lot of work! But you should know that it brought eye pleasing joy with each shot, wistful sighs at the way you captured so much in a single frame, and for that I, and I guess we, thank you!!!
No, I thank you, my supportive friend.
Honestly.
xoxo
Bravo, darling. Bravo! :))
*taking a bow :)
Wow!!! Just Wow….Loved it.
and the song was Perfect..love you long time my Friend.
Love you right back, girlfriend.
Did you like your cameo appearances? ;)
Congrats on your 365 day project. That is quite an accomplishment. The video was great. Happy New Year to you.
And to you!
Jan … LOL … it’s about to get confusing around here ;)
wow. I’ve seen a few of these 365 videos recently.
but really, yours is amazing.
your images are so beautiful, i’m sitting here with tears streaming for how beautiful it is.
i love how your furbaby makes appearances every now and then
and still, my favorite photo of all time is the one of your daughter holding the frame.
and i loved seeing the photos from when I found you and began following your photo stream.
like old friends.
looking forward to Focus 52
but i’ve also decided to take the plunge and begin a 365.
so glad to have found you in 2010
cheers to 2011!

Crazy woman! But cool too. You can sum up your 365 week, through it in the pool, and be all nice and tidy :)
I don’t think I could make it through a whole year again, so soon. It’s a lot.
Glad I found you too, chick. You’ve been inspirational in so many ways.
I thank you xoxo
LOL at your tag.
ROFL! at least somebody noticed ;)
Janice –
Loved the video.. Congratulations on completing this BIG project!! You did an amazing job!!! Looking forward to many, many more photos!!! :-)
Thanks Jennifer!
You should join in with your brand new camera!
There’s no better way to learn :)
I am crying my eyes out here. I told you I was going to get emotional when this came to a close…
but your video did me in.
And while I know I have always told you which ones were my favorites, I also realized that there were a few I must have missed somehow…or had just forgotten about.
The one of you behind the iron fence? Beautiful. Made me think of a song called “Woman in Chains” by Tears for Fears. That song brings up so much emotion for me. If you listen to it, hear the lyrics…and remember any of my history, you’ll know why. That picture should be on the cover of the album. It’s perfect.
The other? I don’t remember if I saw it already, but I remember doing the “To Write Love On Her Arms” project with my husband and son and my taking pictures of it. You thanked me for it, told me “you needed to see that” that day…and then, as your pictures were going by…I saw one with “love” written in script on your arm.
And it made me cry just a little harder…because I felt like I actually might have inspired a tiny piece of your artistic world. If I didn’t…shhhhhh…don’t tell me. I like the way it felt. :)
I am excited for the new year, the new project…
I closed my Facebook account to ready myself for it emotionally. I don’t want to expend useless energy there any more. I want to put my heart and soul back on my blog…where it belongs and alongside the people who understand me best.
Thank you for this good, hard, cathartic cry.
I’m ready. Bring it on. xoxoxo
CP´s last post ..Further proof that no good deed goes unpunished
I was waiting for you to watch. Honestly, I really was. Because when I do things like this, I do it for certain people too, and one of those certain people is you :)
Love you muchly, chickadee. You always lift me up, build me up, make me feel that I can do so much more than I think I can. That is irreplaceable.
xoxoxo
PS – you DID inspire that post. It’s there in the comments ;)
Congratulations on kicking ass and taking names. Having done the same, I know what a liberating and empowering feeling it is. Looking forward to more photography and a little less pressure in 2011. Cheers!
empowering! Exactly!!!
Cheers to us Angie – glad to have you along for focus 52 :)
I love the video and the song! It was great to see a year through your lens!
Thanks Amber!
Congratulations! I’ve loved following along as you reach this amazing accomplishment.

I’m so happy we met up.
You know, the more I think about it, we should all go give Maegan big kisses. Boot Camp Forever, or something like that. LOL! ;)
So awesome, way to go!!!
Thanks girl. And I’m glad you’re in for the next 52 weeks! Yay!
I love love love the video of your 365 images. The pics just blow me away…you are amazingly talented. Wonderful song….who is that????? I need to buy it…….

That’s Natasha Bedingfield. Isn’t it a great song? Inspiring :)
And coming from you, that is an amazing compliment! This project helped in so many ways. I should really make a list! I learned so, so much. Time consuming but so totally worth it.
You should join us for focus52!
Actually, I sent you a flickr mail ;)
Thanks for the info. I’ve never heard of Natasha Bedingfield but am glad I do now. Yea, I should join the focus52 but am trying to find ways to spend less time on the computer instead of more. Places like Flickr has been so addictive for me the past four years, I’ve decided that this year I’ve got to find a way to not sit at the computer so much and spend more time outside taking pics. I’m just very apprehensive to jump into something new. But I’m sure it would be beneficial and sounds like fun.
Thanks for asking.
xoox Red~Star
Well if you change your mind, jump in anytime! :)
hey GF.
been thinking about you and your project and this awesome vid
just had to come back and see it again.
*sigh* just as breathtaking as i remembered it.
you. inspire. me.
thanks
xo
awww … thanks Maureen.
I hope everybody is as pumped this week as they were last.
We shall see :)
Congratulations for finishing such a beautiful project!!
