Recently, my health really sucks. It seems like I’m always getting something, wether it’s a stomach virus or a tooth ache. Which wouldn’t seem out of the ordinary, I do work with sick children all day. But I’ve been doing that for the past 5 years and I haven’t been this sick before. I’m chalking it up to stress. I have been stressed lately....moving and financial trouble. All that worrying has probably just opened the door for whatever feels like skipping on through. What really sucks though is my tooth. My dentist thinks I might have to have a root canal on a tooth that I just had a crown put on last summer!! Less than a year ago. And to top it off I keep having all of this bloody mucous from a sinus infection and I might have an abscess on the roof of my mouth. *grumbles* It’s not pleasant.
But I have since moved and I have since made out an excellent budget, so I’m on the upside of things. I have also planned a trip in June which I am VERY excited about it, even if it is for a weekend. So hopefully my body will get the memo that things are fine now and it can stop being so susceptible to EVER little germ.
On another note, I am thinking about making business cards and handing them out for real. I sort of toyed around with this idea last year, but with school and the holidays and money troubles it sort of took a seat in the back. But now I’m sort of thinking about it again. It would be for commissioned drawings and photography. The only thing that worries me...And I am NOT trying to sound all full of myself...but I’m worried about getting TOO many orders right at the beginning. I need some sort of system or waiting list or time limit....heck I need a price list!!!! I am the worlds worst at pricing things. I really need to research this...I’m always like “Well, what do you think it’s worth?” I always ALWAYS undercharge and I’m constantly getting yelled at..*laughs* So anyway, a little update on what’s going on with yours truly! *curtsies and skips away to the pile of charts*

^___^ Ohhh this is a very exciting entry in your blog!!! Some of us know what's been going on with your life but that doesn't make your thoughts on it any less interesting. I for one always like to read about it because it gives me keen insight. Your health has been just horrible since you and I started going out. That had best not be yet another determining stress factor in your life. HAHAHA! ^_- Well, all jokes aside, I think that you have a great idea with the business cards. I really think that the work, though, should determine the prices you charge. Not every sketch will be very easy. Charge for how many hours go into it. ETC. Photography there are many factors that have to do with it. How far you travel...how complicated the shot is...how many they want...ETC. In either case, I'm here for ya guapita! I'm ALWAYS here for you...There's just one thing to do and it's to keep on keeping on.
