Because My Photographer Quit Without Even A Two Week Notice...


In November the Murph got a new job and we packed up two homes and three cats and moved down to the Tampa/St. Petersburg, Florida area to begin our new lives. I was very excited and love it down here and everything so don't get me wrong.  I guess I didn't realize that with his new job keeping him busy, the Murph wouldn't have time to do his old job anymore.

 Old job = being my Chief Fashion Photographer/Athletic Supporter/Nutrition Consultant.

With no photographer, I am having trouble doing my Fashion Friday blog posts or any other fashion related blog posts that may require a picture of me in some fashionable or not so fashionable outfit. I've made some sad but serious attempts at selfies, but the photos turned out like this....















and these... not much better photos....









How can a person who generally has trouble with picture taking be coordinated enough to take selfies?

The Murph did agree to take this photo, but I never managed to do a fashion post on it.  It was a cute dress though. I wore this one to see Wynton Marsalis in Sarasota play a fun Christmas jazz concert.



Please excuse the photo bombing cat! He is seriously attached to me in a weird way. I always believed he was taken from his mom at too early an age. Bless his heart!

Dress: Mark & James by Badgley Mischka;
Shoes: Nine West

These days most of my pictures are of the cats so if you love cats you're in luck! If you love fashion, well, I'm sorry but until I can come up with a better plan, there just might be a bunch of cat pictures on my blog again.

Also, with no Athletic Supporter, my triathlon endeavors are nonexistent, but I have hopes for the spring and summer. If I can still swim and ride a bike without training wheels that is.

With no Nutrition Consultant, I've been sneaking to McDonalds to get sausage biscuits and hash browns several mornings and I'm lucky to get in one green smoothie per week. Not good for the detoxing, but I do get an occasional salad passed on from the Murph when he doesn't want to eat his lunches.

I'm still thinking I should become a vegan, but I've tried that before. It was the toughest 2 hours of my life!

Don't worry about me though. I'm tough! I'll figure it all out and be back to normal in no time. Hopefully, I will be better than normal because my normal could use some improvement. (or so I've been told)

In the meantime, here's some cute kitty pictures and some random home interior pictures because those I can manage to take all by myself.

Enjoy....


Stop taking pictures and give us the food!

Reminds me of Cadence and Phantom only they wouldn't be rubbing on each other like this.

Cool Jazz Paintings.

  1. Oh my! You do need help. I'd apply for the fashion photog position but there's that distance issue..
    But on a cheerful note, I see the painting survived the Big Move..

    1. I wish we did live close because then we could take pictures for each other for our blogs although you do a great job on your on. You've figured out the system. And yes, the painting survived the Big Move! It rode in the SUV with me and the cats so I could keep it safe.

  2. I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own
    blog and was wondering what all is required to get setup? I'm assuming having a blog
    like yours would cost a pretty penny? I'm not very internet savvy so I'm not 100% certain.
    Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

    Here is my blog photographer in Hazyview
