Dreams mixed with reality.

For many years I have worked in jobs that I have loathed. Jobs that have been soul destroying. About 2 years ago my wonderful husband purchased me my 1st DSLR. It was a Canon Rebel T3, it was love at 1st sight.
Chocolate brown in colour with the 18-55 kit lens, I was on top of the world. Taking a million pictures a day.
I then started to go to school to help with my growth as a person who takes pictures... I learned lots of cool stuff, including how to use aperture and shutter speed and ISO. I am on my 3rd class now, the Studio Lighting Class and I am totally pumped to learn new stuff.
I took many pictures of friends and their kids and babies, each better than the last. Hoping that I continue to grow and become an excellent photographer in time.
I am busy as a bee these days taking pictures for people and I hope it never stops.

Sick and grumpy

So the past few days I have been sick with achy limbs and headaches. I am such a pleasure to be around.... HONEST!! Really, I am not even allowed allocated time off to be sick. I still have washing and cooking and cleaning to do.. Who do I call to phone in sick?? OK rant over!

I accidentally shoplifted

So this week, I accidentally shoplifted potatoes at the value of $5.99 from Sobeys.
I should have went back as soon as I realized and paid the money shouldn't I??
This would have been the correct and moral thing to do.... But I didn't...
Husband came to the conclusion that Sobeys are overpriced and that they deserve it...
Case Closed huh?
I still think of it when I roast those potatoes in my oven. The potatoes kind of sound like they're singing - Thief thief thief .
BUT, I must admit feels nice to get something free every once in a while even if I will go to hell for being a terrible person. ;)

Back to School

Back to school.... How wonderful to even utter those words, to know that Monday-Friday they are learning something new....while I get a break from my oldest 2 children fighting.
It IS the most wonderful time of the year....for parents that is!

Sean said his 1st day was rubbish and that he would prefer to stay home to look after his little sea monkies.
Nicholas said his 1st day was rubbish.
Gracie loved her 1st day.... she cried as she went into the class, but is so excited every morning for Kindergarten!

Anyhow................

some pictures below of my 2 girls.... just because!!!!

Have a nice rest of the 'Back to school week" I know I WILL!!!
