Back to Ttown and back to job hunting. egh. it’s really disappointing. Over qualified for bs work and around here there are no openings for the legit. I’m just chugging along, doing arts and crafts and makings some cash with ebay photo shoots.  I just hope something comes along real soon, because the move can’t happen until late July.  I’m going to sip tea and take care of things around the house. Have a swell Monday!!

    Wow – what a creative area! The photos are amazing & really capture the whole vibe. I’m just the little-st bit jealous :)

    That last picture is beautifully eerie.
