Beach Beauties
So, today has been a good day, other than a little headache a sore eye. It’s sore because my son poked me a few days ago and I thought I would pass out from the pain. You would have thought someone stabbed me in the eye with a sharp edged knife dipped in rubbing alcohol, get the idea?? Seriously though, I couldn’t even open it and forced myself to bed as I was not able to do anything else. I had to eat a snack with my eyes closed before heading off to bed, that must have looked so funny to my dh. I’m better today thankfully, its still a bit bothersome, kinda a bit blurry but no more pain, so i’m not complaining, just praying that it heals completely soon.
Then my sweet hubby picked up a large book shelf and painted it all nice dark chocolate, almost an eggplant colour and he says he’s going to put spools on it and make it a working shelf for me. i just received a box full of black bags for my packaging and had no where to put them and the tissue and ribbons and boxes and gifts that I have for my clients, and now I have a spot!! Woo hoo, thank you Hubby, love you baby!
While my hubby did that lil project for me I found an image from last year that I love that I never edited, so I did and I LOVE it, I think it will become my next canvas. So here it is..

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. I have a 1 yr old birthday boy to shoot on Monday, and i’m really looking forward to that, mom and I had a great conversation on the phone and I can’t wait to meet them.

Ok, for anyone who doesn’t know, “pp” stands for picture processing. I don’t actually like pp. LOL.
