I know I haven't been spending as much time here as I have been, some of my comments may have seemed short or terse, but I have been pressed for time lately.

2008 has been a hectic time so far, we had a vehicle engine blow up on us, it seized, would have cost more to fix it than the whole vehicle was worth, which sucked, especially since it was our only vehicle.  This pushed some things back, it complicated a lot of things, and put a severe financial strain on us.

Add to that a microwave blowing up (literally, not just poofing), a broken tooth, severe health problems for a few of our kids (our animals, who are our children), and great new jobs, all within a month.

Needless to say I haven't had the free time to appropriately thank people for their comments, or comment on other peoples work that I normally would have.

Most of my free time isn't online these days, it wont always be this way, but it is for the moment until I adjust to a new work schedule.  I'll eventually get into the swing of things, I certainly hope everyone understands and that no one takes offense at what may appear to be lack of interest, or disrespect due to delayed response because that's certainly not the case!

We're looking forward to shooting with some local models soon, we have some things that popped up that will unfortunately postpone those shoots, but they'll happen.   They'll be awesome when they do.  Especially since we've scouted out some really neat local spots to make some art, and got some basic studio gear now, and always adding to that!

I still check here almost daily, if even just for a couple of minutes to make sure that if someone needs to contact me I can send them off a quick note to let them know I'm not avoiding them.  So, yeah.
