This last week, we've been to the ER, I've had two jobs, and my husband has had several nights now where he wasn't off work until 6:30pm, and 9:15pm. It's been very very busy.
Anyway, I had the opportunity to shoot some publicity photos for a show that a company named CYT is producing. It's called Honk. I'm not really familiar with the show, but it's the story of the Ugly Duckling. It looks darling of course.
I also did a photo shoot for a young womans senior photos. She's graduating from college this spring with her Bachelors in Psychology. She hasn't even turned 22! Way to go! That's pretty incredible.
Today was quite long as well. I went shopping with a friend over the hill. She offered to drive me and my son, my only stipulation was that I get home around noon. I needed for my son to get a good long nap. Unfortunately, we didn't leave the mall until around 2. When we got into Los Gatos, we saw the traffic completely stop on highway 17. We knew we couldn't sit in traffic! My son was hollering at the top of his little boy lungs (which are impressively capable of LOUD noises) and her youngest daughter (6 months old) had that shrill baby cry. They were both irate, and exhausted. So after many attempts at getting a hold of someone who could give us any sort of direction to any other way home, my husband called! He let us know how to get over the hill without taking the highway. Unfortunately there is only one way, and it's a long and at times harrowing drive.
I have quite bad car anxiety. If someone else is driving on any sort of (even just barely and remotely) dangerous terrain, I begin to fall apart at the seams. I completely unravel. It's really quite a scene. And unfortunately for whoever is driving, it becomes quite problematic. I become a complete nuisance. Anyway, she let me drive. It ended up taking us forever due to the car being off it's axle and very sharp turns. We made it back to her house which is around 20 minutes from mine at around 4.
My husband picked my son and I up, and we went home. Got home around 5 and at that point my husband was getting ready for a meeting over the hill and my son and I were just trying to catch up on dinner. My evening ended with me desperately searching for babysitting, only to be in vain and my in-laws stopped by. Got to do the senior photos I needed to do and my son got to see some of his grandparents. All in all, a good day. No blood, and plenty of laughs. Hopefully I'll actually be able to sleep tonight... I actually BARELY slept last night!
