I love my horoscope...

Your romantic energy is perfect for the day that lies ahead. See if you can find a good way to show your sweetie how you feel -- or, if there's no sweetie in your life, to meet the right person.

...humm, hurry up 4pm.

I've made a decision about my camera...I'm keeping it for #1, someone asked via email that if I was going to sell it they would be interested (even after I dropped it), however it's in perfect condition and was in the bag when I did drop it. I'm going to rid of two of my lenses though because I think this is what my problem is. I'm constantly switching lenses and that I know it contributing to the dust in my sensor. I have a 70-300mm f/4-5.6G AF, 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G AF and a 50mm f/1.8D (not selling this one she's my baby). I use these pretty much on the regular however I want the VR lenses instead. I have decided on the 85mm f/1.8D (this replaces the 70-300 & 18-55) and the 105 mm macro lens. I'm going to eventually sell my old lenses on Amazon or if anyone is interested let me know.

...I'm starting to think this camera is high maintenance.

I have always done things differently. While most people go along with the flow I change gears. Mother's Day I don't actually celebrate because I am a mother 365 days of the year. My son and I had a good day yesterday even though he had two asthma attacks and a mild fever. We cleaned out his toy box, did some homework and reading together. I'm simple and try not to ask for too much just that my son loves me as much as I love him and he listens. S is the best thing that has ever happened to me, he's the one that can make me smile at anytime, he makes me feel my 4 hours of sleep per night are not in vain and I know that he unconditionally loves me. I did not spend Mother's Day with my son, I actually spent it with R, I wanted to just have a day to myself and relax, R took me to lunch at Gregorios's and I just spent the day doing nothing, exactly what I wanted to do. We ended up filtering through the wine rack and R's house and as I was polishing off my 2005 Petit Verdot, I happened to notice a 1995 Pinot Noir, that had way to much sediment in the bottle and so we had to rid of it. We also opened a 1997 I think it was a Cabernet Sauvignon, that was fiercely delicious.

I've been toying with getting my camera professionally cleaned. I have this speck of dust which I believe is living it's life on the sensor. I don't like messing with my camera to much taking in account what I paid for it. After looking at several of my recent photos she needs love. In two years I've dropped it twice and broke one lens...yeah I should be shamed but it happened. So needless to say she will be out of commission for about a week but it's going to be completely worth it. I'm going to investigate a few other avenues before my final decision. I'm totally bummed but in two years I haven't really cleaned her much either. R brought to my attention that Nikon has a new D60, it's smaller and larger megapixels, my first thought was ... I so need this, but I would feel really bad if I got rid of my D50. It would be a nice upgrade though...

This week has been one difficult to sum up. I just know one thing, I'm drained mentally and physically. I've had insomnia two nights this week, three bad dreams, worrying about my grandfather's health and a myriad of other things. Sometimes I don't know how I wake up every single day and still keep doing this. I need a vacation and I'm not talking a two, three day get-a-way. I mean a real full fledged vacation with itinerary and all. I seriously am considering next year for a vacation like never before.

Work was really odd this week, it started off bad and ended even worse. Then company is in out busy season and let me tell you, this is my first ever busy season with them and by the end of today I wanted to shoot myself in the abdomen around 4:30, never mind I get off a 4pm. I'm one for committing when I say I'll have something done, I'll stay however long to ensure that it's done...except when it's Friday's. However I made the exception to stay and make sure the month was closed and everything was reconciled for April. This weekend I don't want to do anything but relax and do some more relaxing. I feel bad because I haven't seen my pregnant best friend, since she's been pregnant and I need to make sure I do so next weekend.  I haven't visited my grandparents. I have oodles of paperwork to catch up on and I need to reconcile my own personal calendar to see what the hell is going on this month.

I need more time, somehow someway more time. Happy Mother's Day the following blogging moms to Irene, Chelle, Ana, Vixx, Mary and Krystyn.
