doing: watching past episodes of 30 Rock (thats where the quote is from... in 1984 i was 2.)
feeling: quite well! i've been having quite a few great day, in a row!! thats a bit out the norm for me lately!
the weather had been beautiful, my mood has been great and my family has been pleasant! all in all my life has been on the up!
last Friday and Saturday we photographed the Steppin Out Dance Studio! There were TONS of dancers and 2 long days, but it was SO worth it!! The kids were so much fun! and for our first time out photographing a dance studio it went very very well! now we just have to get all the memory mates put together and we're in business!
this week has been going fast! i could have sworn that today was wednesday.... but its not. this weekend we have 2 proms, a wedding and a 1st Communion! and it just keeps going from there! more weddings, appoinments and Tulip Time!
as for the work-front news.. of other sorts. we have a whole new set of issues with our window..... its really never ending. ssoo we are sorta kinda taking a look at a couple other options. hopefully something will work out for us, becasue i-we-are getting a little sick of coming to work and finding a whole slew of reasons to want to pull our hair out. and thats even before we get up to our actual studio!
well, time to get back. i get to show Linds how to put together some memory mates! she'll be thrilled!!
outtie!

We'll see how this works. My first post via mobile device!!
Today went fast! I looked at the clock once and it said 4:15! Super sweet! Friday was an awful day, just dreadful. Jeff and I wanted to quit and take up drinking... But we made it through. Plus drinking doesn't pay too well. Today didn't start out great, but it ended up okay! I got a few things done and a few more things ordered. We still have a super 'to do' list to take care of. But its endless so it'll never get done.
So now I'm home and I've yelled at both my kid and husband and spanked....well just Ethan! So now I'm incredibly ready to go to Jess' and drink and snack and NOT be around boys for awhile!!!
Outtie!! :)

"don't 'honey' me!!"
doing: watching 90210 and waiting for my next appointment
feeling: pretty good!
its been a crazy couple weeks, and it doesn't look like it'll be slowing down anytime soon! today is the only exception. today i have 2 orders this afternoon but other than that... NOTHING!! it's a beautiful thing when your schedule has two tiny things on it and nothing else!!
last week.... oohh last week i had a couple kids in for Kids Contest. and then i had 3 days of Baby Ducks!! super cute! super messy! and super stinky,..... sad to say but it's nice to have them gone. the pictures are super cute though! all the kids had a great time! and there was no crying and no eating of ducks....! (that almost happened last year, swear!) to finish off the week we had the Father/Daughter Dance. there were 400 daughters signed up (thats A LOT!) suprisinly things went VERY smoothly! we were done with pictures in record time and even had time to sort through some things and make sure we had everything in order!
this week.... its been slightly crazy but today is a lull day. we've had senior reps in and kiddies in for Kids Contest! its been great! and tiring all at the same time!!
at home. Ethan is wonderful. he's a typical 2.5 year old boy! hes naughty one minute and the sweetest little boy the next! i can't believe how much he remembers!! he's basically able to recite Chica Chica Boom Boom,... and does so regularly! i love it! he's too smart for his own good... and also for us!
Matthew is also a typical 26 year old boy. he wants things he can't have, he wants to play with his friends 24/7 and then wants to come home to me at midnight and bug ME to play with him! i love the boy but he drives me nutty!! however, things have been going well for us. we are seeing a bit of a light at the end of our debt tunnel. the only downside to our lives is the house that i want more than anything in the world! it hurts how much i want it. hurts.......
anyhow. thats about all from me. there is just so much going on in my life.. so many random things with all sorts of people that its just crazy!
on a great note, my little brothers will be home this weekend!! Ben's coming home tonight and Greg tomorrow!! YEAY for holidays! i love my brothers!!
can we ssaayy ROCK BAND-A-THON!?

" did you see did you see did.. you.. see?"
doing: designing. i'm working on tapping out my brain on designs this week! and its working!
feeling: C-O-L-D!!
listening to: baby ducks chatting up a storm
hey! baby ducks are here this week!!! starting today, with family, begins our Easter Special! tomorrow i have 2 appointments and then Saturday i have 3! not terrible, but it could have been better. I'm still hoping that a few more people call! baby ducks are TOO cute to not be photographed!!!
well my computer is running super slow and i'm colder than a polar bear. i think its because i dont have any socks on, my feet ususally regulate how cold the rest of my body is. i should start packing socks in my purse for days like this!
just a little update on the studio situation. my boss had a chit chat with the owners and it went.... well it went. they showed very little acknoweldgement that they even did anything wrong considering the window. boss told them we were unhappy with their actions and they said "oh, we don't have a copy of the release so we didn't know the window was yours...." stupid.
theres a whole lot wrong with that statement and it doesn't make me happy at how ignorant they are acting! like they've never delt with actual people before! COME ON!
so boss made some comments and threw out some ideas. basically asking for compensation for them being stupid, but still trying his hardest to work soemthing out with them so we can co-habitate! in my option he's bending over backwards for them and it should be the other way around. they should be coming up with reasons and ways to work with us!!
we do have an entire half of the window back, and now all my extra stuff is up in our camera room (thanks to them moving it.. i wasn't about to!) they added one more thing into our side of the window... but funny thing, the bench that sits outside is COMPLETLEY on our side of the window! that dang bench always seems to move its self...... funny how that works.
so, i'm still pulling hard to find somewhere to move. i think a pros and cons list is going to be in the works soon. boss' biggest issue is paying rent. we've had this place for 6 years and the rent hasn't changed a considerable amount. so now when we are ready to move somewhere the rent is going to almost double, and thats hard to imagine! i'm still going to try though. i really dont think this situation is going to work for us at all... even for another year.
finally. its April. where did time go?! however.. its SNOWING today.. and that just shouldn't be! April showers bring May flowers.... and all that.
i'm going to be working on our newsletter here soon! i'm trying to think of things to put in it, so any ideas send them my way!! also, if you want to be on the newsletter list just let me know and i'll get your email added!! :) its our first actual newsletter. the last two have just been about Kids Contest and Ducks! oohh meet Jeff and Tracy! how fun and lame! ...... i'm doing it.!
well, off to create some more... i think. or album work. thats always fun too!!
have a good one!
