Hey y’all. I’m tired. I think when I get tired I revert to Norma Jean (my alter ego from Murder on the Rockies in Estes) and my southern side comes out. It’s tiring to both you and me but I’m still tired and I think I’ll deal with her (Norma Jean) tomorrow.
So…when did I write last? Let me start off by saying I’m moving on Sunday. Moving boxes in a U-Haul and then movers moving large crap on Tuesday. I just want to be in my new home. I want to be settled. It feels like so long since I’ve just been “home”. I’m tired and want to relax in front of the tv and not stress about what needs to be done. Can some one teach me how to do this…please?
On another note…my father died four weeks ago tomorrow. It was unexpected and caught me off guard. Realistically not totally off guard since he was 77 (which in dog years is super old) so it wasn’t like I wasn’t aware he was going to die at some point…I just didn’t see it happening on this Saturday morning. But it did. And there are things I’m thankful for and things I miss but in the big scheme of things, I think he went the way he wanted to and for that, I’m grateful.
Work. Work has been crazy busy. I keep thinking it will slow down but it hasn’t. Great but I have to remember to enjoy the ride. I tend to overbook myself with odd ball jobs so when really good opportunities come my way, I’m not available because I’m doing things to fill the gap. So, what’s the lesson to be learned here, boys and girls? No, it’s not don’t see how many grapes you can stuff into your mouth since you might choke. It’s Remember to Smell the Flowers. I think. Doesn’t that seem like it fits right there? I don’t know. Honestly I thought I always had to smell the flowers, which at times can hurt my back and often pisses off the bees.
Ok, side tracked and back to work. I am doing the Dirty Girl Mud Run on Saturday. We filmed part of their promotional video last week and the rest on Saturday in 40 degree weather in the mud. Yay cold.
I did a Coleman stand up paddleboard shoot last Thursday where we were paddleboarding at 7 AM in 36 degree water. Thankfully no one fell in (I’m post a couple pics below) but once we got on shore hypothermia set in and we couldn’t stop shaking. Yay cold. Notice a theme here?
I had a shoot for Garcinia Cambogia yesterday and I literally laughed out loud once we got done and my counterpart Meegan sent a text to the director saying we had been pronouncing Garcinia Cambogia wrong throughout the entire video. She saw it on Dr. Oz, so it must be true. Looks like a do over to me.
I’m filming a movie (La Maison) this weekened and I have a meet and greet for an awesome yoga company on Monday. So tired now, must sleep. x’s and o’s to all of you.
PS, some of the pictures below are from Mark Woolcott Photography which was a different shoot about two weeks ago. The others are from Brooks Freehill Photography.
Bunch more shoots, shoots galore, but I’m just too tired. I’ll write more once I’m in my new house with a glass of wine and a more focused approach.
Peace out,
