Spring Green
I love the color of spring green. It doesn't last long unfortunately. Not much content, I know, but these little moments are still worth photographing even if they lack longevity... just like the spring green.

Center and Kickstarter
Blogger has been down for a few days but thankfully we're back in action.
Center and KICKSTARTER have teamed up to support those artists involved in Centers Review Santa Fe fund their projects. Getting to Santa Fe in order to put your work in front of some of the biggest names in the Industry is an expensive but important step in one's career.
The review is juried and I invite you to go to their web page and read more about the process. It's an honor to be chosen to attend the three day event. The wonderful people at Center invited me to post my project on kickstarter and I'm happy to say I just launched it moments ago.

Welcome back, Me.
Where in the hell have I been?
I feel like I have been suffering from writer's block in all forms.
I can't finish a blog post, feeling like I have nothing to say.
I haven't picked up my camera in a few weeks.
I had a very bad interview for a job I really wanted. It was a bad interview on my part and on the part of the woman who interviewed me, asking awkward and inexperienced questions. ( One question in particular questioned why I haven't been working. This sent me in a tailspin of slight depression, grappling with how staying at home with one's children is unacceptable to mention in a first interview and yet is so undervalued...ugh, so much more to talk about on that front.)
Other things that have been happening:
We finally felt ready to adopt a new dog, so we did.
I've been dealing with trying to figure out how to pay for a trip to Review Santa Fe and buy ink for my printer to reprint my portfolio... payment due May 22.
Our basement has been flooded for the last week. I have dumped our large shop vac some gazillion times. (Yay 105 year old house.)
Because our basement is wet, wet, wet, our laundry is a mile high and we now have boxes drying all over our house.
There are so many other things that have taken my attention away from being productive but I will tell you about those when I can wrap my head around them.
Oh right, and on top of everything I still have three little boys that are wearing me out. They are wonderful, of course, but exhausting.
Stick around, there is more fun in your future. (Until then, five more days of rain in the forecast.)

The tooth fairy
It's been a crazy week and I've been an extraordinarily bad blogger but I am hoping to post some new work soon.
On Friday, I noticed a small pimple above my youngest son's tooth. A year and a half ago he fell, while running and playing, hitting his tooth and almost knocking it out. We went back and forth to the dentist's office for a few months following the injury, trying to save the tooth. I was told to check regularly for what would appear to be a pimple on the gum above his tooth. This would signal that the nerve had died and an infection was present. Apparently this process can take some time, if it is going to happen at all. Well the day finally came last Friday and I knew then our fate was sealed. I can honestly say I thought way too much about how losing his tooth would affect his appearance. I'm embarrassed to say it, it's trite and clearly superficial but the boy is so darn cute and I know we will wait roughly five years for the adult tooth to arrive.
Without further ado... I give to you, the extraction.
