I know it's corny to some of you, but this, all of this is happening today...

Capricorn Horoscope
"It's your intention to be evenhanded while dealing with difficult political dynamics at work today. However, your patience is growing thin and your true feelings might overwhelm your strategic thinking. Even your best-laid plans can fall apart as circumstances change in unexpected ways. Work with your current intensity, but don't let it get the best of you. Although flexibility is your friend, there's no reason to overreact by changing your goals. Modify your approach and your method without altering your destination."

I didn't know this was on youtube!!

Red Elvises were friends of mine in high school. I was there the day they filmed the beach scenes for this video, you can see me in the dancing in the red coat at the 3:57 mark and clapping and screaming at the 5:20 mark. :)


Sitting at my desk crying about Bowie again.
Took the Zumba class at the gym at lunch today for only the second time in my life. I for a second I thought I was gonna die. But, it burns something like 400 calories, so it's worth it.
I have to go every Tuesday. I don't think the ankle can go back to kickboxing for a while no matter how much I like it or try to take it easy.

Rant about gaining back too much weight coming later today.

None of that matters right now because David Bowie died last night.

I have been big in Russia for weeks now. More views than any other country. So Random. I have no idea why...If anyone out there knows why, or I'm being spied on cause I'm about to be kidnapped and sold into some kind of sarcastic overweight girls sex ring, drop me a line and help a gal out huh? But thanks Russia! You guys rock!
 
Day 8 - Torn down but not out! Shiny new signs still hanging in the window. No more Carl's Jr. On Cahuenga and Ventura.

 
Day 7 - Beers at Gordon Biersch with one of my best friends

 Ok, so I didn't know the blogger app was not gonna publish my pictures for this challenge from the Blogger app. Bummer. That means I have to do this from a computer, and I may be a few hours to a full day behind, such as today. I will do my best to keep up, but if you want the most up to date posts on this challenge, follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/scassatta/

 
Day 6 - Delta Deep at The Canyon Club - I have discovered I need to use the cell phone camera in pro mode for best results.
We are here by the sheer kindness of strangers. We couldn't afford to go after the holiday hoopla and were going to skip it. A woman I have never met found me on the Facebook event and asked if I could use her tickets! !
Life is amazing!


This is a test.
Testing from blogger app because it would not post my photo challenge last night...

365 Photo Challenge 2016

So, I have always wanted to really rise to the occasion as a photographer and do a photo challenge. I've tried and failed at the week long ones on Facebook. I never even started or finished the 30 day one I meant to feature here. So why not jump into joining instagram for a 365 day challenge? I don't see any risk of failure here!

I have a goal to post my photos a lot faster because I get lazy and I am never going to be a professional that way, I have never used Instagram, so I get to learn something about it this way, and it's gonna make me take pictures and be creative on a daily basis. As long as I can keep it up. HaHa. 2015 was the first entire year EVER I was a gym member for all 12 months, I only fell off going in the last 2 weeks of December. So, miracles happen (Oh, but I do owe you the 2015 recap post and we are 5 days into the new year...which leads me to...) In classic Sydney fashion, I have only TAKEN pictures for the last 5 days, I have not uploaded them. HAHA!!! So, here are my first 5 of the new year and I will post (and cross post here on this blog) EVERYDAY for the rest of the year (no, really I will).

HAPPY NEW YEAR!! Day 1 - Numero Uno Pizza for my Birthday! 

Day 2 - Origami bird a quiet girl with pink hair gave me at the Missing Person concert at the Canyon Club

Day 3 - Cousins! - Camp Pendleton

 
Day 4 - Back at work after a 2 week break...my view when i tilt my head up in my desk chair


Day 5 - Addicted to Making a Murderer
