Weekend reflections and continued work

Spent a nice couple of days at the in-laws this weekend and Liam came away with so many toys they could barely fit in my Jetta. Which is actually saying a lot since it's known for it's "junk in the trunk" aspect!

Got to watch the the Stars win and Cowboys get spanked. Good thing I don't "get into" sports as much as I used to, or the Cowboys game would have completely ruined my day! Oh well, they get paid for it, I don't.

Being out at the in-laws house on the lake reminded me that I ultimately want to get out of the "burbs" and away from it all. My job would definitely allow for that to happen, as I work from home, but Sherri is a bit different. She makes her daily commute to her corporate job and we just haven't figured out how to let her do something else just yet. Someday...

I've been, slowly but surely, regenerating my photography portfolio to put it up on my new zenfolio site (http://conceptofproof.zenfolio.com) and hopefully business will pick back up once that is finished. With some hard work and a little luck, it will be completed by the new year.

I have also come to the conclusion that the middle of a recession makes for a very hard time to start a business. Legitimizing this photography business of mine is proving quite difficult. Though, at least I still have a "day job" to pay the bills while I try to get this thing off the ground. I have high hopes for it and if I can managed to turn a profit during a time when people don't have the extra funds to buy art to hang on their walls, I should be good.

As I said, continued work. We'll see...
