Sometime you just don't know 'til your there.

I have followed a lot of these 365 day projects. I read over and over that making that first project was one of the hardest parts. I did not heed this warning. I really thought it was going to be very easy to start this ball a rollin'.

Yes, I said it. Easy.

So, this is my second attempt with a second theme and I'm on day seven. So far this blog is all I've made.

I guess, technically that makes it my first project! Although I am sure it will endure metamorphosis before the end of the year, its at least ready to be seen!

I hadn't realized how completely out of touch I was with technology and how much there is going on that I don't know about. So far, its been humbling!

Bonus! Today's Skull-a-day was freakin awesome.


And let the blogging commence..

So, here we are. I figure I will toss out a disclaimer; I am practically computer illiterate. Please bare with me.


And now that we have the legal outta the way, Its good to be here. I am feeling pleasantly surprised at my new found desire to network and connect with more then my immediate family and friends. I am also surprised at how hard it is to find other blogs, I had no idea how much there was to this whole "blogging" thing. I am sure I will get it.. I am going to make an effort to find awesome and awe inspiring blogs to follow and share. I added a few today. Check out :Mellows Log Cabin, he's got some great old music on there and for free no less!

Today is the day!


        The day that I create my blog to accompany my passion for all things Pin-Up and Rockabilly. For the next 365 days I will share something I've created, captured or found.

         My love affair with Rockabilly began at the age of 6 with the movie Cry Baby, an obvious choice for a children's movie! I am sure we bought a copy of the movie only after I wore out the one from our little local Video store. 

          My love of Pin-Up art has been deeply ingrained in me by my mother, for as long as I can remember she has displayed a collection of Vagas Girls on her wall. These women always represented the epitome of strength, class and elegance in my mind. I now have two beautiful daughters of my own and I hope to raise them to the understanding that beauty has everything to do with these qualities. I also hope that by completely immersing myself in this beauty it will have an everlasting impression on my life.
