LeighMo's bit of heaven (or hell)

This is my life. Seriously.

Been up to lately

First and foremost, this: New Website. I plan on buying a domain once I'm not broke, but as far as free hosting accounts go, its pretty good. No ads, tons of storage, and they don't mind if you host for free and link to another account. I may just upgrade, they've been pretty good to me so far. So hopefully can get the freelance thing up and running real quick like :0)

Also, have been sighting seeing a lot on the weekends. My camera is still broke (no viewfinder), but I'm getting better at eyeballing and adjusting. How did people take pictures before they had instant feedback?






















I have a gallery at deviantart ( http://philleighmo.deviantart.com/ ) with more pictures. I am turning into a regular shutterbug, taking the infernal thing with me everywhere and looking for strange angles, tucked away surprises, and for that 'one in a million' shot that may otherwise go unnoticed. I am supposed to get my camera fixed under warranty, but it may be faster, easier, and cheaper to just buy an lcd screen and have Nate switch it out for me (again, having a tech geek as a boyfriend has its advantages ;0) I would LOVE to get a Nikkon or Cannon, but there are other things toward which $900 would be better used....like rent, or food, or flying back to see my kids.

They are doing well, my babies. Every day they sound happy, ask me what I'm doing and what I've seen. They are moving soon, out to the country where they will have a big yard, more bedrooms. I am grateful that their Dad has stepped up to the plate so much; I honestly did not expect him to be such a good full time father. He is enjoying it also, he sounds happy and his girlfriend and her daughter will be moving back in with him when he and the kids move. He's been pretty good about having the kids call my parents and taking them to visit my mother and sister, and my father.
I want to get something in motion where they can come out here and visit with us at some point this summer; they don't start school in Michigan until after Labor Day so I have a little more time than I would otherwise.

And that is what has been keeping me busy and relatively quiet in the blogging realm :0)
