Just thinking about that last post and it looks like I ended on some topics that were stuck in my system for the past week, so I'm going to reroute on this one.
I got a little extra time off last week and it gave me plenty of time and even a chance to begin another story, but to be honest, first drafts are so difficult to do. Of all the time I sat down to get it started, I only got two pages written and I added another page yesterday. I just have to get my brain going the right direction and then the ideas flow, but sometimes it takes time.
Just as I was thinking this whole ordeal with people confusing me with Elsa, it came back at me. I was walking past an elementary school when the children were coming out and some little kid broke out into "Let It Go" when I approached. At least I'm not seeing phone cameras pointed my direction anymore, but I still get an occasional look, but I've had those my whole life. Sigh. That's what happens with people like me....We get stared at. I'm used to it.
I lost my camera that I do my typical nature photos with, but that has been found! I may just bombard this site with more photos! I also got a new phone with a better camera on it and it's taking time to get used to, but that's the fun of it. I've been playing around with it every since and discovered the different photo settings on it, so there may be more coming from there also. I was excited to find that it has a sunset and sunrise setting. I'm excited to try them and see if they are any good (our evenings and mornings can be absolutely stunning). I'm a little disappointed about our autumn as the colors coming out have been coming at unpredictable times this year--the summer wanted to linger clear into October. It is usually peak time around my birthday in the mountains, but when we went up this year, some of the trees were already gone and the others hadn't even started yet. The whole year has been crazy like that.
My coworkers have been begging me to do my "Let Them Go" song for them and I tried sending a copy to them, but they want to hear it at work. They're still telling me that I have to do it live. In fact, one of my coworkers is--I hope she's jesting--asking me to do a whole private concert for her with the request that I play my flute also. That would be interesting. To be honest, a private concert would scare me more that a full blown one. Don't like the small crowds. I have a more difficult time dealing with the extra adrenaline in that situation. Oh, and this happens to be that same coworker who's convinced I'm living a double life as a performer.
Gee...I wonder where she got that idea from? Guess I've been too spontaneous.
