I need to step back a little
« on: March 11, 2013, 07:31:02 PM »
I've been a bit under the weather lately. :( An acute bout with a Sinus Infection, plus a bout with High Blood Pressure. :( Not to mention a little episode that I am going to have some tests on to find out what the heck is going on. :( My Chiropractor thinks I may have had a slight stroke. My right side is quite a bit weaker, I'm unsteady on my feet and my Rock Solid, Steady hands have gotten so that I can't hold my camera steady. :( So photography has been out for several weeks. :(

So, for a few weeks I need to back away from the Mod job in the photo area until I can figure out what is going on. It's just to hard for me to concentrate and get things done; plus my computer is still messing up. :( I'm not quitting, I just need the time off to recuperate.

Relax and concentrate on taking care of you!! 
It is better to be consistently incorrect than inconsistently correct...

My level of sarcasm depends on your level of stupidity...

Sarcasm makes smart people laugh and stupid people mad.

Thank you everyone! :) I'll get through this one way or another. :) I'm just a bit weak, a bit depressed, a lot scared and really bummed ot because I can't shoot my bows or take any photos that aren't blurry as hell due to the shake and unsteadiness of my hands; but I will get better!
