GOOD-NESS!
I mean, it's the beginning of February and WHAT A YEAR!
On a personal note: my year has been this:
A busted pipe behind the refrigerator in my home that proceeded to flood the house on Christmas eve, while we were gone. Came home to the entire downstairs 3 inches under water. it's February and the house is in the same condition as it was a week after the flood. We've lived with no floors, total chaos and no refrigerator. We've been through five adjusters and although insurance is slow and frustrating, we're trying to stay positive.
Then...I went to Imaging USA, saw amazing people and friends, learned amazing things and had the best time ever....but also, flat tire, so two tires the day we left to go, and then two new tires in Memphis on the way home. sigh.
Came home with covid.
Started recovering from covid and was shut in due to an ice storm.
Ice storm went away and on the day before my birthday, a person from Vietnam hacked all my social media accounts and stole money. YEP. So I'm still working with meta, but as of now, I do have my instagram back. I'm running two instagram accounts and will get back to keeping them a bit separate as one is for fine art and one is for portraits.
In the meantime, I also made a new facebook page. Flyhippie Photos is still up, but so far, I can't get to it since i can't get into my personal account. BUT, a new personal account let me make a Flyhippie Art facebook page! If/when I get my facebook stuff recovered and squared away, I will keep two pages just like instagram. One for portraits and one for fine art.
So. All of that is running in the background of Flyhippie, HOWEVER:
Wanna know what's happening GREAT and in the forefront?
Well, I have a new intern that (bless her heart) started working here as I was fighting home and meta and insurance and bank and paypal and all the things. She's been so patient and I can't wait to really sink into everything she can offer here!
ALSO
23 in 23 is going strong! 23 wins in 2023!
I want to photograph all of the wins! From joined a gym, to painted, to ran a marathon to bought a bike to got divorced to got braces to sat up, to walked to ALL OF THE THINGS. Wins are so vast that i want to photograph 23 of them!!!
I also want to have a party celebrating the wins! I know I discussed this in a previous blog, but it's so much fun that I wanted to discuss it again!
ALSO
it's about time to think about spring portraits, mothers day and fathers day portraits. We will be announcing a lot of things soon, so please make sure you're on the email list! If you miss it, it's never fun!
