Beginning a Week

Posted Mon Mar 8, 2010 in

OK, the week is beginning. I’ve been in my workroom for about an hour, drinking for first cups of the day, working through my lists, and preparing myself for the day and the week. My time card for last week is complete and submitted. I’m about to head off to the shower and then cook some breakfast.

Yesterday we got a number of parcels packed and ready to ship. I’m clearing out a lot of stuff, but it takes time. I go through my things, pick out what I think will sell (on eBay), then make an image. I still have a backlog of images in my pending directory. I’ll work through them over the next couple of weeks.

The cash generated will go towards things I’m interested in and using or toward paying down a couple of bills that are the last of our financial obligations.

I’m seriously considering selling off my Nikon equipment. I find myself using the Canon Powershot G9 more than the big camera. The D100 is decent, but the postage-stamp size screen is too small for my old eyes. I’m not using the camera and glass, and that’s a lot of cash sitting there collecting dust. I’m not OK with that. So, I’m thinking about selling the equipment.

If by some chance I decided to start serious photographic work again, I could always buy back in. The technology is still changing and I wouldn’t know what I should be using without some research. So, I’m thinking… about selling what I have.

Now I need to get off to the shower. I didn’t do my exercises this morning, but am pretty stiff from the range workout yesterday. I think I’ll postpone my workout until tomorrow morning.
