Day 357- It's 40 degrees out. Naturally.

Friday, April 09, 2010

It's 40 degrees out. It was 85 the other day. Probably why I am sick again. I just got over the flu ad now I'm with a head cold. lol. R has been very sick with it, I assumed it was only time until he passed the demon on to me. The cold weather and rain at work probably did me in.

Tomorrow we have to go across state and pack/clean. We will have to drive back then depending if anyone is helping us, and so on.
We have a lot to do there. Ants have come back out too, which they did not take care of well..

By the way, we have spiders coming out of the tub drain..ideas on remedies for that please...I work at a marina in a park district so I am pretty accustomed to gross things with 8 legs and fins and so on, but I really dont like them being in my house.

Have I mentioned I dislike this weather...a lot? Winter/Fall is the worst time of year..death, rot, and freezing cold. I have to be careful at work- if people tip boats and so on I have to call emergency services and all that...frostbite and hypothermia...yippee.

So I'm a little under the weather, I didn't do my photo theme the way I had planned. Maybe some other day. But I did take 3 pics, all natural and no retouch.

I'm growing my hair out. It is at that awkward stage right now. I want to put some something in it, but I have to wait until we are financially stable again. I posted on craigslist to do portrait work at a phenominally cheap rate, but I really have NOT have ANYONE reply. I think it is SOOOO sooo weird. Even offering a CD with packages, with releases, with cheap rates...it's a rough crowd. My photography is up to par, too, and substancially more awesome than friggin' walmart, sears, jcpennys, or other poopy studio.

I am probably doing photos for a friend of mine soon of her family, don't know when yet. Also a fashion shoot for a trade I did, and then probably will grab some photos for another friend of her and her kid and whatever else she'd like. I like to do hers, we're good friends so I don't even think about charging that kind of stuff. It's what I would be expecting if my friends were photographers or something, so I try to be how I'd like others to be to me.

Life shouldn't be complicated when it comes to some things.

I am sort of stressing out still. Things are working out slowly...it's just the interim that is frustrating. I reenrolled in classes today since the school wrenched the diploma back out of my hands. I'm doing a portfolio class, a exhibition art course, and philosophy in technology and ethics or something like that. It's all online, which is a perk, at least.

I can't wait to get all moved in. I dont work too often until next month, so I want to take the time to get really organized and neat here, get everything straight and all that. Moving is a big pain in the butt. We did get a dishwasher, though.

Until tomorrow..must sleep now.
