Five on Friday: Reasons I didn’t blog all week

Oh my gosh. What a crazy week!! It’s tax season, so of course I’m in Texas more than Nashville. This week was a weird one, in that I was only in Texas for a week before needing to be back in Nashville. So my time in Texas was pretty focused and FULL. The sheer fact is:  I just didn’t have time or energy or mental capacity to blog all week… here are 5 reasons why.

1. Dentist. I had a dentist appointment on Tuesday of this week. And for the first time in a long time, it negated my entire day. Lately I’ve been able to go to the dentist, come back and still work a full afternoon. This time? I got back and went straight to bed for the rest of the day. Then got up with a migraine headache. Just sitting up was an accomplishment.

2. Photoshoot. I did a photoshoot on Saturday, then had the post-shoot editing. When I do this, I focus on this pretty intently. I sure hope they like the photos. They may not be as “fancy” as I have done in other shoots, but I still love the shot. The family is beautiful and their baby girl the epitome of adorable. And its a military family. Which makes it super special all it own.

3. Allergies. I was doing SO WELL, then the allergies hit. Again. As a result, I’ve felt miserable for the last several days. Nothing kills your creativity like feeling like crap!

4. Muster planning. Time I would usually use for writing has been used to instead handle emails and planning of our Aggie Muster. Which is fast approaching. And I’m slowly freaking out.

5. Other design work. I designed a whole website this week and a flyer for a friend. I have plenty more design work to do, but baby steps. There’s a LOT on my plate the next few weeks. I’m going to have to pick and choose what I do and what can wait. BREATHE!
