I think my husband and I may have watched too many episodes of American Pickers. We're in a mood to collect unusual things, and decorate our home with them.

Last weekend, we went to the mall and happen to see this store that was selling really odd things. I had to check it out being they had carved elephant figures for sale... and I love anything that has to do with elephants.
To make a long story short, we ended up going back to the store after we purchased a few small items, to try and talk the store owner down on one of the things he was selling. Luckily, he was going out of business and was willing to part with a particular item that I was strangely drawn to.
We'll be going back again soon to grab a few more things that we decided we want to get. We're doing some partial redecorating to the house, and it seems we've picked unusual decor to do it with.

Getting a second pc hooked up in my pc room. That way I can transfer some programs to the other one, and then share a network between the two. Hopefully tomorrow I can really focus on adding the programs.
The next couple months I want to focus on getting things ready for the big shoot: Scouting out locations, getting costumes ready... etc. Going to be pretty exciting once it all really starts to come together.

Doing another shoot soon, trying to plan this one out to be more creative. Made some rough draft sketches today, and then attempted to create my own mini top hat. It came out good. Towards the end I got impatient. Messes and sloppyness were made. My fingers were so caked with glue that I stuck to everything.

Did some organizing. Now waiting for my hubby to get home.

Editing my butt off. Trying to catch up with stuff. My ass hurts from sitting at this pc so much lately in my spare time.
There's so many little projects I want to do, and I think this is the year to get them done. I wrote down a few shoot ideas while editing this batch of pics. I'm blaming the music I've been listening to that's been giving me these crazy ideas. My time is so wrapped up in work though, that I'm afraid to start any new projects. New projects = long hours of editing. Hours I'm not so sure I'm guaranteed. And when I get too backed up with editing, then I just say screw it and not do anything at all.
And that's not good.
So my goal this year is to be more theatrically creative. Portraits will be acceptable, but on a more creative level. I'm so ready for a change in my signature.

Happy New Year!!
