Keeping My Resolutions Using the Windows 8X Phone by #HTC with #Troop8X

Getting into the swing of the new year is always hard for me. I'm not the person that has everything ready to go on New Year's Day and I hate the pressure of keeping up with the Joneses.

So, mentally I've decided to start my new year later and focus on accomplishing my goals on my own time. So far, so good.

We're well into the first month of the new year and I'm off to a good start now.

Back in December I was invited to join #Troop8X to try out the new Windows 8X phone by HTC and I have been using it to keep myself on track.

I'm having a great time with it. Not only am I using Windows apps to assist in planning, I'm also using my camera to take great pictures.

My current projects are cooking new meals and redecorating my home. I have a lot of delicious dishes and decorating ideas to share from my Windows 8X camera.

Check out a few of the photos I've snapped so far for inspiration:

I'm looking forward to getting more inspiration and taking more photos. Stay posted as I post each project I complete (it's never too late).
How are you keeping up with your New Year's resolutions, recipes, and design projects? Are you pinning, tweeting, or sending them to Facebook or Instagram? Share your links below. I'd love to see them.

By the way, Happy New Year!

WOw, that camera takes some NICE, clear pictures! It really looks like it's a separate PAS. Digging the wall sconce.

Thanks, Char B! The photos do come out nice. Needless to say, I bought the wall sconces. =)
