The second longest day

Tomorrow will be the LONGEST day of the year. I'm excited! Yea I know I'm a freak. But I have so much to do, I'm trying to psych myself into doing it. I know how I am. Once I sit on this couch and punch the red button for the idiot box, I'm gone. BUT I have plans. I took out the flank steak, defrosting it so I can marinade it in my secret sauce (ok teriyaki sauce, but it's real easy to make). I don't have to work tomorrow so I will cook. I'm really getting into it.

First day back at work

At the hospital that is. Babies babies more babies. Wasn't too bad of a day. I try to photograph more than half of the new babies. Today there were 9 born yesterday and I had 5 scheduled for photographs. But alas one cancelled. And if I can't photograph half, I like to photograph at least one more than the photographer the day before. Well she took four photos yesterday. So I was even. More rollovers than she left, she left me one, I had three (that's when a mom doesn't want a photo done today we "roll it over" for the next day. We don't like too many of these since the next day brings more babies so don't want to overwork the photographer.) But not too bad.
Not much else to report. Heard the owls today. They were much closer. And it was still two hours before sundown. I thought I saw one but they fly so fast. I love owls.

I did finish up about 50 photos I had taken of these girls. The one is the daughter of a nurse at work. She is awesome. Both are. The daughter is a natural, loves being in front of the camera. I felt bad she had to wait for her photos while I was out of town. I am supposed to photograph the whole family sometime next month. That should be fun.

I do have to get these photos all organized. I have negatives and slides I want to scan. Shit I need to throw away. All of which I need to organize into some sort of categories. Even on this computer they are in disarray. I used to be so organized. So anal actually. Obsessive about it. I had lists upon lists of everything I owned. Everything was in its 'place'. Now the only room that's clean is the kitchen. But I'm working on it.

I realize that all the photos I took while in Florida were of the sunset. It was beautiful every day. Of course the day I didn't take my camera it was the best. Go figure. So I will adjust and post. My grandmother asked me what I was going to do with all those sunsets. Who knows!
