02.11.2012

Wow, what a rough few weeks this has been. Work has me so mentally/physically/emotionally drained that when I have a day off, I'm just so wiped out.
Right now I'm working through the huge pile of laundry that has been accumulating for over a week. The house is in decent shape, at least. Even the husband has been so wiped from his job, that we both seem to be in a funk.
I came home from work the other night and fell asleep on the couch by 7:30 pm. I'm surprised I have it in me to even feed myself.


In times like these, I like to really try and grab a hold of what remaining pleasures that I can. Simple things to keep my mood balanced. I was overly joyed yesterday when I opened the mailbox to see that my copy of Breaking Dawn was waiting for me. I pre-ordered this so long ago that I had actually forgotten about it. Playing with a Rebel T2i in my spare time- what little there is of that. I'm excited that The Walking Dead will be back on tomorrow night and also anticipating the episode of Grimm that I have yet to watch from Friday night.

I looked into DBA information the other day, it's all too confusing for me. I really want to start up a solid business in the future and focus on photography. It is tough though, going from a guaranteed paycheck to a not so certain degree of how much I would be bringing in on a weekly basis. If I can bring in more than what I do now, then great! If not.... then what?! We aren't in a position to test that right now. SOoooo, the only option would be work my butt off in my spare time to try and build that customer base. An actual DBA or the like would just solidify myself so I could be taken more seriously.
Ohhh, we'll see.

The talk of vacation is up and around. I know the husband will want to go somewhere warm and exotic. I couldn't care less. I rather go somewhere inexpensive and normal. Canada has been thrown around. I rather go to a retreat type environment than someplace that will keep us busy. Before that there was talk of a cruise, but it seems that accident with the sinking cruise ship some weeks back has brought that to a grinding stop. I want no part of the possibility of a Titanic reenactment.

So, that's what is new. Can't say there is much excitement around here. Trying to stay sane.
