MOVING!

Okay, so yesterday was a fun filled day of packing and cleaning. I woke up at 5:30 and just started planning out my day. Oh...wait I haven't told you. I decided Tuesday evening to move to Las Vegas (not certain for how long) to help out some friends and of course to make a little more money. For those of you that don't know...after the Presidential election of '08 and 15+ years in the business, I decided to hang up my excel spreadsheets and cancel all my political google news alerts. (Although i still seem to be getting my news alerts on Gov. Richardson? hmmm)

Anyhow, when I did this I concentrated a solid 4 months working out 2-3 times a day for about 4-5 hours. Then February hit and I realized my savings was being depleated. Anyhow, with a little side project and then a two month stint in Los Angeles I returned to Grapevine, TX and decided to find a job in photography. I did but in case any of you were thinking of changing your career please note that retail doesn't pay that well. Needless to say, I miss shopping. I miss traveling (even though traveling 3 weeks out of a month is a bit much at least i was going somewhere).

Yes, i did it. I'm back in the business. I'm moving to Vegas for a project that could quite possibly be long term. It's kind of exciting to be getting back but I know i'm going to miss that life a regular citizen.

So thus my workout yesterday and this morning was packing, walking up and down the stairs and sweating loading up the car for an 18 hour drive in the middle of the night and all day tomorrow. Trust me when I say I got a workout. I also through in some crunches and leg lifts and a session with my personal foam roller at home.

Well, i'm off. I leave tonight around 2:00 am hoping to reach Las Vegas at 7:00 pm Vegas time. (i'm giving myself a little flex time - I may need to pull over for some zzzzs).

I will be driving to Amarrillo, Albuquerque, Flagstaff and then Las Vegas. I wish I had time to plan this out. I would have liked to spend a day in Sedona. But oh well...maybe another day.

Until tomorrow evening...TOOTLES
