Settling In

I have officially made it through week 1 of Spring quarter--and I feel good. Classes are managable and interesting. Teaching is going really well so far! This weekend we have 2 engagement photo shoots/love story video sessions. . .it is Spring and I feel forward motion.

The one frustration of the week is our computer. As we transition to high definition video, we need a computer that can handle it. Our computer is a dell, which is reliable but frustrating to upgrade. I have spent more time on the phone with them than I'd like, and I've spent more money than I should, upgrading, returning, buying, returning, and ordering online. But we will soon have a new processor and graphics card, and our computer should be running well for much cheaper than a new computer.

I also have a new photo-camera baby in my hands. Well, it is a rental of the camera I intend to buy very soon. It is amazing--the photos are incredible, it is easy to operate, etc. BUT it doesn't go with the software I have on my computer. It does work on Sasha's soon to be upgraded desktop, but I love laying in bed, cozy and warm, to edit photos. SO that may be another investment.

So, things are looking up. The daffodils are in full bloom. It is supposed to be in the 50s, 60s all weekend, and I think classes are going fine. Not a bad way to go through spring :)
