Random Pornography thoughts.

I just changed the title bar of my blog, and thought i'd share with you the typo that I quickly fixed.
I had the image place at the top with the following text written on it "Random Thoughts I Happen to Come with"! Phew close call!

...back in the Game

Hey,
Weather was pretty atrocious today, but I took a few pictures indoors, just wanted to get the camera back in hand again.
I also visited Gord in hospital, surprisingly he met me as i was walking in, he was up and about and ready to go home. He went through some pretty horrible back surgery on monday, so I hope it all works out well for him.
He's in a lot of pain though, and is off to recuperate , so I wish him a speedy recovery...

So here the two pic I look today, yeah not much of a selection I know, but i'm easing back in slowly!





I was also playing with some old photos taken, tried to make digital look like film, what ya think?

Marathon Training

Well good morning to you,

Tina pointed out to me the other day that I should start blogging about my marathon training, so here I am ready to document it.
It will actually be quite nice to look back and see how I have hopefully progressed.
So I am sticking to my training plan pretty well at the moment, it's certainly not been easy, but I am extremely determined to "keep 'er lit". Yesterday I did the most miles I have ever done, ok so it's a far cry off the 26 miles, but 7 isn't to shabby, is it? It was hard work, as I was running on a steady incline, and I possibly left a bit too early after lunch (close to a wee barf) but I'm happy with how its going. Sponsorship has also been going great so far as well, so I'd like to thank anyone that has sponsored me (if you are reading this that is) justgiving
No training planed today, a nice wee rest day, which is great as I'm getting the old knee twinges, this surely isn't good for me, but I actually feel pretty good health wise at the moment. I'm starving all the time, and I feel brighter, perhaps that's the lack of vino consumption ;)

So in other news, I just got a new camera bag, it lays everything out really well, and keeps things tidy, I also got a lens cleaner pen. So I've cleaned all my lens' and bodies, and packed them away nicely, I am now itching to get out and use it all again. It's been far too long since my last photoshoot, which I am very disappointed about. Work, training, sickness all getting in the way!
I have now reduced my hours in work slightly, so there will be no excuse come a few weeks when it all goes live!

So lots of things ahead for Kaz in 2009, positive attitude is definitely activated!

what will 2009 hold for us?

Hi there,

I thought I'd drop a blog in to mark the start of the new year. Haven't decided if I'm going to start it all up again, I guess I'll just see how it goes.
so here we are at 2009, if I sit back and think about last year, I wonder what I have acheived.... I've had gradual changes that I'm sure have been for the better. I got a new job, because I was very much determined to move on, it meant a lot to me to get it and I was successful, so I'm happy about that.
towards the end of 2008, everything got a bit busy and hectic. I was constantly rushing about, rushing to work, rushing home, and rushing my dinner. I need much more chilled time to do stuff for myself. I have had no time for photography, no time to get the love back into it.
sooo, it's only me that can change this aspect of my life, I have requested to work one day less a week. I'm not sure if it wise financially, but I do know it's wise for my sanity, I need to get kaz back, and start enjoying my life again, I actually do need time to breath, that sounds so cheesey, but it's how I feel right now.
I believe I can do so much with that extra day, get back into film photography, perhaps paint and read more, spend time alone, collecting my thoughts, and just generally listening to myself more.
I'm feeling quite positive about this year. I registered for the Belfast marathon yesterday, so I'm excited about getting stuck into training for that.
let's see what 2009 holds, shall we?
