More catching up

Posted by cybertoad on 03/05/2008 in images, misc, re-caps, travel |

So this is sadly becoming a once-a-month blog. Sorry, but it just crazy and I have no motivation to really write something up. But everything is going well, just busy and down-time is hard to find. Actually, I lie, I get down-time but then I spend it editing photos! LOL

So here are the events over the past month…

> Weight Watchers – I have been more active over on my diet blog and I am happy to say that I met and exceeded my 1st goal! I wanted to lose 10 lbs. by the end of February and I actually managed to take off 12 lbs! Yay me! Read more over at my diet blog.

Pastel Lounging > Photography – I am enjoying a creative resurgence with my photography and finding a few new projects that I am really enjoying. One is the TTV series. The pic to the right is one of my recent ones. I had a blast taking shots of some rusty classic cars during our trip to Fredericksburg a couple of weeks ago and made a new contraption that will make it easier to travel with for my upcoming trips. I am also slowly starting a series of miniature scenes… check out my set here. These little guys are less than ½” tall but so fun to shoot in various settings. The Valentine’s post I made featured one of the photos

> Fredericksburg – Speaking of which, the photo excursion out there was a blast. The TTV to the right is from the trip… I really enjoyed my car mates, my Flickr mates and got some shots that I am proud of. Click here to see my Flickr photo set.

> And speaking of travel, March is going to be so busy! It looks like I am heading to Bossier City, Louisiana for work for 2 days next week (driving) then I head to Las Vegas with Christine for the WPPI Conference. That will be my 1st time in Vegas and I am excited to have the opportunity to go! The week after I return I head to Tucson for a quick business trip and then a week after that is our trip to Washington, DC. Yay for traveling! Boo for tiresome business trips.

> Taking time for myself – something I have been trying to do, especially last week while Kenny was out of town for work. I tried to tidy things up around the house and this weekend I tried to get of the computer. I did have the Yale Street Art Market that took my whole Saturday but on Sunday we had a nice, casual brunch with friends, ran some errands and relaxed at home with a movie, which I actually paid attention to instead of watching it over my laptop screen!

And now we are at the beginning of March and my weekends are quickly getting full of activities (besides traveling). I have two weddings to shoot, corporate portaits and an engagement session to shoot! I’ll drop in here when I get a chance to come up for air! LOL!

In the meantime – I can be found much more easily over at Twitter and Flickr
