second part Distracted

Well, I went outside. I walked around for five minutes. I went back into the house. The humidity is horrible. I would rather do chores that fight that humidity.

Distracted

I decided to get dressed and go outside with my camera. I went around the corner and there is my pile of dishes reminding me that I should do my chores before I go play. I ignore the dishes and go upstairs to get dressed. My bed needs made, the clean clothes need put away, and the dirty clothes need to be washed. IGNORE THE CHORES~GO PLAY! How often do you get fog like this? Well there is more fog on the inside of the house than on the outside, if ya know what I mean.

Tuesday that feels like Monday

Today, I started to make a list of the three things I need to accomplish today. Kitchen, Office, and Photo organize project. Then I added livingroom, budget, Beth Moore dvd, and color my hair. Now that I have my list, I really just want to play and edit pictures from a lighting test shoot yesterday.

I have wanted to take pictures at this bridge for a long time. We probably spent an hour just shooting here. I love it even more now.

While I was waiting on the two pictures to load, I looked out the window. The southern humidity is moving in. There is an awesome fog outside which means I need to get out of my pajamas and go play outside with my camera. It's not every day you get a fog like this. Maybe it is more about being up this early. See how easily I am distracted.

Friday Morning Fun

This morning, I woke up with only five hours of sleep. Yesterday was an awesome accomplishment. I started around 8 a.m. and cleaned until after midnight. My body was screaming, but my house is great. There were lots of things that needed organized. With starting an Etsy site, there was an extra layer of organizing to be done. Three levels of listing; the items that are listed, the items that are photographed and need listed, and items needing photographed. So a great deal was accomplished. I am waiting on two loads of laundry to finish before heading off to Oxford. Feeling accomplished, I may have energy for a yard sale tomorrow. We shall see!

Hormones amplify life

Today is Thursday! WOW! Quite a revelation! Actually it is just a statement. So many things coming together at once. Thinking of doing a yardsale this weekend, sister is coming in for a very short visit, Fourth of July, and a Wedding Anniversary Party shoot on Tuesday. My house is a wreck. SO TODAY IS CLEAN DAY! I have my upstairs bath done, the bedroom straightened, and headed to the loft and photo storage room next. I will change and wash sheets tomorrow. Fresh linen always brightens the world. Off to work if I plan to get anything done.

Hi everyone!

I actually have three people who look at my blog. That's okay, because I do this for me. I do some much on facebook now. The picture loading and setup on facebook is more conduciveto my way of doing things.

I have neglected my blog more than I care to admit. I find so much joy in my photography and it takes up quite a bit of my time. I have not sold hardly anything lately, so that discourages me from sharing it with the world. Just when I think no one gets anything from my photos, someone will post on facebook how much they love seeing my pictures.

There has been a great deal going on since my last post, but it is all mundane things EXCEPT for my new-used lens. I am doing a wedding in October for some friends. They bought me a $1700.00 lens so that I could take good pictures at the wedding. Now I am trying to practice and get used to the lens. It is so hot out, and when it is not hot, I am having a hot flash. I believe strongly in my home being a nudist colony, at least from the waist up. If I wear tube tops, I seem to be okay, but anytime I have clothing over my shoulders, look out.

I will write more later.

Hello from beyond allergy zone

Hey! I am back from Florida. Every year, I make the trek to Central Florida to avoid allergies at home. I literally get to a place where I cannot breathe. The first week down there, I was in such emotional turmoil. The only way I can describe it was as if my emotions were a big bouncy ball and someone had thrown them against the wall. I was bouncing, frantically looking for a landing place. It was crazy. The second week, I calmed down quite a bit and was able to narrow down some ideas on my state of mind. The third week, I settled down for the long visit. I thought I might give my husband time to miss me a bit and enjoy life without someone always hanging on him.

Once again, my sister has a graduating high school senior, except this year she has two. One of her boys skipped a grade and he also is going to be officially ed u ma cay ted!!!

I arrived in time for Easter festivities at my sister's house. Egg hunts, dinner, and pictures with 20 guests. What fun!

Then a week later, PROM!!! I had pre-scheduled to have a photoshoot with a nephew and his girl as they were going to prom. I was allowed into the prom as a photographer. Awesome time and the pics are great!

I was able to attend a Golf Tournament as a photographer and take pictures until it was over.

I managed to get in a few more sunsets than my other trips.

There is an exhibit opening in Moscow, Idaho featuring my photos of the Farmers Market. There is an article in the paper about me and the exhibit.

After getting home, I am trying to tie up the loose ends and catch up on all the photos I took.

All of the photos can be seen at my website~ http://photoblessing.zenfolio.com.
