Ever have that unsettling feeling in the pit of your stomach, but are completely unsure what it is? I hate that icky feeling and it's kind of been with me for the past week or so. No idea where it came from, but I sure hope it disappears and FAST lol! I haven't had the desire to do anything, like at all... haven't baked, haven't cooked, haven't been playing Super Mario, not knitting, not sewing, barely even watching TV. I feel like a big ball of mush.
Like always, I am behind with work, and honestly haven't had this much to do in a long time. I have 3 sessions to edit, repackaging/uploading to do for ScrapArtist, AND trying to get my own shop set up STILL (how pathetic is it that I haven't even logged onto the store to set anything up lol!!!) It doesn't help that I procrastinate, put things off, and then get stressed out meeting deadlines which makes me not work more (hence me taking a few minutes here to blog right?). Whoever said that being self employed is the way to go, might have gotten their wires crossed a bit. Lately I have been telling Joe that I wish I had a "regular" job, a job that I clock in at, do my time, then come home and don't have to think about "work". He says he wishes he could do what I do and get to stay home most of the time... grass is always greener right?
Bleh, OK, Im so not that girl who complains, so Im pulling myself up by my boot straps and getting my mind together... here I go, I can do it :)
In other news, I treated myself to a goody today...
It's a small wireless trigger kit and I love it! I was getting a little tired of not being in ANY pictures, ever lol! This way I dont have to ask anyone to shoot, run the risk of a kid breaking any of my gear, or bother with setting up the stupid timer and running over like an idiot to get into position. Its a brilliant little toy. As soon as me and the kids came home, Makena went outside and played with it for a bit. She was so cute snapping away, thought it was ingenious that she could pose and then fire when she felt ready. These were some of the first shots she got:
Then she was so kind to let me partake in some shots... not too many though, she was very quick to come over real fast if she saw I was trying to do one on my own lol!
and my 2 favorites of the day...
She wouldn't give me control of the remote, but I love this shot "she" got! Unfortunately, Blake wouldn't have any part of the pictures! I swear that boy is going to grow up and hate ME because I dont have any pictures of him! Every time I even ask to take a picture of him, he rolls his eyes and says flat out NO. Little bugger...
Anyways, looking at these pictures now puts a smile on my face and on my heart, so Im hoping that I can get a good night sleep and start the week over tomorrow! Am going to try and get back here to post another "cheat" cupcake recipe and this one is a yummy one, not just something to whip up and not enjoy fully! Here is a little peak:
The best fake out lemon cupcakes... yum :) Will be back soon enough!
I'd love to know more about the wireless trigger kit you got. I've never heard of such a thing. Where did you get it?
