So, here we go.... Just got through all the "have to do's"... Now, we're on to getting ready for the move. I'm trying to start getting details worked out. I was told that we might not be switching the car I'm taking into our names before we go. (Can you imagine driving out of state with a car belonging to your husband's boss? That might...

Trying to keep my head on straight today. I have so much to do, and am running out of time. Todays "to do" list actually HAS TO get done today... and for some reason the stress of that is preventing me from doing it... (Is that why I'm here blogging instead of doing it?)

14: finish July's issue
15: 2nd shoot a wedding

I'm so excited. I yesterday I facebooked a woman who works as a Key West vacation planner. And she likes the idea and let me know how much is was to have my advertising where their place is, (and a lot of tourists pass through). It may not be much, but it's the beginning. I was just tickled to have my first positive experience with...

Today and yesterday I've been doing another seminar. This one is about how a (well known) started her business. The crazy part of it all, she's only been in business for about 6 years, and she's (as I mentioned) now a well known wedding photographer! (Not the one i'd hire... but then again, the one I'd hire, I'd have to have come in from Australia)....

I hope you can create the world to be as you want it to be. smile There is something cosmically peaceful about that ... and if/when I am ever in the Caribbean, you can be My Caribbean photographer.

Candid photography is growing tremendously these days - you've got a market for yourself, so exploit!

wyoh:
Well, I'm not really looking to do "candid' work... but we'll see hope it goes.

My last few days have been... interesting.

Of course, right now, the only part of it that really matters is last night. (The night before honey and I got into a huge "so where are you sleeping tonight so I can pick somewhere else" kind of fight. But that doesn't matter after yesterday...) I went to a photography seminar... and not just ANY photography seminar,...

ZOMG - I am so glad you are ok, too. Those little coincidences are BRACING.

HOORAY for meeting your mentor(s). It sounds like you all made a fantastic personal connection. That can make all the difference in creative work. May you develop purposeful and productive relationships with them. You have the talent - now you are getting the connections!

I'm going crazy trying to figure out where everything is... i can't find my flash or my reflector... I need to leave in about 45-60 minutes and I totally don't know know if I'm ready...

I'm...

First off, barium, it is a sailboat. She doesn't have her mast up yet. But she does have one, (and the rigging), and it's part of our to-do list to get the mast up after we sand and paint the deck. I also don't have many pictures yet, but will be posting a TON when we get down there!

The pictures that I have:...

I'm beside myself...

I made the deposit on the boat today. I'm very excited about the whole thing. It's becoming more and more real to me. It all seems like a daydream. And soon this Philadelphia life will fade into dreamlike memory as Key West has become...

Soon, I'll be back to scrubbing and painting decks...I'll be playing with 12v electronics and wiring... I'll be...

I've never been happy to sell a boat. Each time it's like ripping out my heart and tearing it to pieces...
