Milda is on Day 4 of her cleanse and I think I may start one next Monday. You know, one can never start these things on the weekend because with the lack of work, you prey on the fact that <em>you can't eat anything</em> and it drives you crazy. Definitely a better idea to start on a work day because at the very least, you have other things to occupy your mind.<br /><br /><div align="center"><strong>365.003 Ambient</strong></div><br /><a href="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2327/3530311911_8fecf81e32.jpg?v=0"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 498px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 500px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2327/3530311911_8fecf81e32.jpg?v=0" /></a><br /><div></div>Nudistahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18248042447834755280noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192182768356435986.post-22661696240438039062009-05-13T11:16:00.003-04:002009-05-13T11:21:48.736-04:00365 ProjectAfter seeing a few of my contacts in Flickr posting 365 pictures, I decided to take a look into it. The 365 Project involves taking a self-portrait everyday for the next 365. As long as the picture is taken by you and includes a part of your body, it qualifies.<br /><br />I think it's a great idea. Not only does it develop one's photography skills, but you also get to see yourself evolve over a year. Do you look the same at year's end or not?<br /><br /><div align="center"><strong>365.002 Captured</strong></div><br /><a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3587/3528377226_2eddfbdb15.jpg?v=0"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 500px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 375px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3587/3528377226_2eddfbdb15.jpg?v=0" /></a><br /><br /><div align="center"><strong>365.001 Contemplation</strong></div><div align="center"><strong></strong><br /> </div><a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3651/3526299106_e611e9e535.jpg?v=0"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 500px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 369px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3651/3526299106_e611e9e535.jpg?v=0" /></a><br /><br /><div></div>Nudistahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18248042447834755280noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192182768356435986.post-86095807382808541292009-04-23T12:38:00.003-04:002009-04-23T12:41:24.936-04:00New Banner and New Items for Sale<div>Did some reworking to my Etsy shop.

It seems to be doing well and I am proud of his hard work. He is a great business man.<br /><br />My job ended in February, which is better off since that job wasn't taking me anywhere, anyway. Very poorly run and managed, but either way... I'm glad it's over.<br /><br />I've been venturing on some new opportunities. I should receive 2 job offers either later this afternoon or by Monday. Some fairly distinct pros and cons of each position to weigh.<br /><br />Position A: <span style="font-style: italic;">Pros</span> - Great job title, a step up from where I have been recently, tons of responsibility, great staff, fun working environment, can bring puppy to work with me, a real chance to show my ability and skills. <span style="font-style: italic;">Cons</span> - no health insurance, possible low salary if I cannot negotiate higher, longer commute, room for raises but no room for advancement to a higher title.<br /><br />Position B: <span style="font-style: italic;">Pros</span> - fairly short commute, higher salary, full benefits, nice work environment, my own office, room for advancement and raises. <span style="font-style: italic;">Cons </span>- lower job title, possible lack of enough work, dealing with multiple managers instead of managing myself.<br /><br />So, as one can see, there is a lot to consider. We will see how it all pans out in the end.<br /><br />On the knitting scene, I've opened my <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6748536">Etsy shop for NudistaKNITS!</a> I had my first item sold with 12 hours of opening shop. I've recently finished up a ton of dishcloths.<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3432/3350887643_1220a71fe4.jpg?v=0"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 500px; height: 375px;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3432/3350887643_1220a71fe4.jpg?v=0" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3622/3351698318_0a09568c95.jpg?v=0"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 500px; height: 375px;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3622/3351698318_0a09568c95.jpg?v=0" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3606/3348773927_01bf6bf3c3.jpg?v=0"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 500px; height: 375px;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3606/3348773927_01bf6bf3c3.jpg?v=0" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3559/3349602224_c76004189d.jpg?v=0"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 500px; height: 375px;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3559/3349602224_c76004189d.jpg?v=0" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3583/3337541281_37786c837f.jpg?v=0"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 500px; height: 375px;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3583/3337541281_37786c837f.jpg?v=0" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3589/3337541221_16c92736ac.jpg?v=0"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 500px; height: 375px;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3589/3337541221_16c92736ac.jpg?v=0" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />Planning to update more this year.

This is much smoother to work on. I only have about 25% left to finish it up.

I print out some pics... shaggy layering... decide on some color... low lights 7ash.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>I walk into the salon and here I am sitting in the chair of the most conservative woman I've seen in a salon. Non-funky hair, plain style... judging by the cover, I am a little concerned she won't get my "style." I give her a quick run down as she nods her head. Off she goes to mix color.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Foil, foil, foil, process, rinse, shampoo, rinse, condition, rinse, dry. Wow! I think the color looks great and the cut she did is exactly how I wanted it. Would definitely recommend her.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Woot for new hair!</div><div> </div><div><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2405/2849211466_f85f39c9a7.jpg?v=0" border="0" /></div>Nudistahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18248042447834755280noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192182768356435986.post-92121031203858882172008-09-05T09:20:00.002-04:002008-09-05T09:23:28.908-04:00Monty<a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3141/2828862658_78d39bc104.jpg?v=0"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3141/2828862658_78d39bc104.jpg?v=0" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Starting up my latest Ravelry project...
