Bugger bugger bugger bugger bugger!!!
I hit the wrong key and just deleted 3 paragraphs! Long smancy painted nails and one hand that isn't quite a co-ordinated as it normally is = bad typing. I will try and recreate.
Lady P, where in the lower 48 will you all be moving to next year?
All going relatively well here. Aside from small motor skills and a little less strength still, the wrist and arm are nearly back to pre klutz move. Before the horrible heat wave of the last couple weeks, Generic Dude and I've been getting back to hiking as usual. I've even been able to lug around some camera gear and take some okay shots here and there. I am REALLY looking forward to my girls being here so I can work on some smexy smexy ideas I've got brewing in my brain. A gallery has even tentatively agreed to show the results if I come up with anything I really like. Think, old 20's and 30's pinup ish, B&W, with a hint of kink. I'm not a fan of, in your face, porn type stuff. But not unrealistic glamour type shots either. So we will see.
Also, in that same vein, Generic Dude is helping me set up a more permanent studio space on our lower level. It's just too time consuming to try and work on some things here, when I have to set up everything I need, every single time. Down there I can have all my gear more easily accessible. And, for one project involving a scanner, a desk with a separate computer......all dedicated to the photography biz. I have several hundred great old family photos, some dating back to the early 1900's, 20's and 30's. A few dozen of which my grandfather took while he was in a circus in California. They are really awesome shots and very marketable if I can get them scanned and printable. I just have to actually DO it. Having a dedicated office with desk, studio with all my gear, etc......is really going to be nice and a lot more productive.
The job I started at the end of January is really going well. At the time they only had one position open, as receptionist. I really wanted to get on with this company even though that was not the position I wanted, but I took it to get my foot in the door. Well, last week I was offered the position I wanted, given a pay increase and one very sweet bonus. It will be a few weeks at least, before I start, but I am very happy about the whole thing. The bonus allowed me to get most of my winter supply of hay, as well as putting a bunch of meat in the deep freeze. And one piece of photography gear I'd been wanting, a new speed light.
I won't boor anyone with the less than wonderful stuff. We all have our troubles of various sorts.
