Wal-Mart~~Oh, the joy!!

Well yesterday was another busy day for me....sorting, numbering and loading a wedding proof book took up most of the day. It was all worth it though. It turned out pretty good, I think. The customer is happy, which is my goal. A wedding is A LOT of work....it's not just the day of the wedding.....it's preparing for the day, the day, uploading, editing, weeding out the not so good and the duplicates, ordering, the previews and the album, receiving the previews and the album, sorting, getting previews in the proper order, numbering the order sheet for each preview (anywhere from 125-300 previews), loading the preview album, etc....However, photographing a wedding is very rewarding for me. I love it. I only do a handful in any given year, but that is the way I like it....too many and I would probably burn out. My next one is in October, so I've got some time to recover!!

Well, I did my bi-monthly grocery shopping today....yeah?? I don't know, it may have just been me, but I think every child in Oxford under the age of 3 was at Wal-Mart. I think they were all feeding off each other, and I actually started hearing a beat forming with all of the crying--screaming!!! Not to mention it was mainly sopranos! :~} I guess the fact that I really let it get to me is because it has been a while since my girls were that age. I just have never noticed it before or maybe I've been tuning it out, but I do know that going with a mild headache, quickly escalated into a migraine. Oh the joy of a Wal-Mart trip.

I hope everyone is looking forward to the weekend as much as I am. The plan is to hit the yard sales and possibly antique/thrift stores....fun!! In other words, it's going to be lazy one for me.....that's the plan anyway!!

I'll leave you with the quote of the day.....

"If opportunity doesn't knock....Build a door"
