Time Out!
It’s been nearly two months since I had a normal schedule. I am so far behind on updating websites, it’s embarrassing. I still had thousands of photos to sort through and edit when we left for the Pennyrile Fall Photo weekend which, of course added hundreds more to the total.
My brain feels like that scrambled egg in the anti-drug commercials.
I simply wasn’t feeling creative or inspired enough to come up with good shots. At the end of two days of shooting, I had more than 500 pictures and none of them really pleased me. Participation involved submitting four shots whether I liked them or not, so I did, but I wasn’t surprised when none of them even placed. If I found them boring, I didn’t expect the judge to feel any different.
The good thing is that I now get to stay home and start catching up. For the next two weeks, I do not plan to leave Madisonville at all. In fact, I don’t plan to even leave the house most days. I do love road trips, but 5 weeks of travel is enough even for me.
The trip to Baltimore to pick up my grandson, Brad, and his family from the airport is probably what finally killed my enthusiasm. Going up wasn’t too bad, except for being tired to begin with, and the people at the airport were great., However, coming back it rained, the truck broke down, and things just kept on getting worse. I took very few photos. Later on, I’ll do a post on the trip and add those. At the moment, I think they are on the laptop. I’m just too tired to pull it out and transfer them over. Right now, I need to get back to work on updates to my church website.
