The Thirtieth Random Discussion for (TPB)M (and may they R.I.P.)

you know....I really don't think I want to be involved in the wedding business anymore. It's SO hard to not get soured on it.

I really like these.

Thank you all. I'm afraid I posted and slept, late nights and early mornings don't seem to be tolerated by my body the way they use to. Must be that maturing thing.

LISA I like the GIF.

LISA/T.D. the Sunny and Kona shots show how beautiful those two are. Lovely set. Sorry for the nasty weather which equals mud and wet dogs.

I KNEW IT!!! (Maybe if I start coloring all of my text pink, people will notice me better...)

Nice new shadow too, though we need to wear it is pretty bright.

Sounds like it may be time to fire them.

On another note...I've heard if you charge more the clients are usually LESS that way. They trust that if you can command a higher price that you know what you are doing.

I'm ONLY doing this because they are my aunt's stepson....

I remember.

Ugh.

I hope they can give you some good WOM and get your name out there locally.

Time to kill them with kindness....or just kill them if they keep being naughty. :p

I got a text about an hour ago from Bobbert that said "It's a boy!!!!!"

I didn't know they were close to the due date already...

Robert and Mari had the 3d ultrasound this morning.

Nice job Lisa. I love the Kona tongue though.

FUNNEL CLOUD?!? (our weather statement)

... Strong thunderstorms expected this morning and early afternoon...

Scattered thunder storms are expected over the northwest portion of
Oregon and southwest Washington this morning and early afternoon
as a cold front moves across the area. These storms are moving
very fast and you can expect brief heavy rain with the storms. Some
of these thunderstorms could be produce gusty winds up to 50 mph.
There is also a possibility of rotation with these storms and a
funnel cloud is not out of the question.

After the initial cold front moves through some thunderstorms may
develop later this afternoon as colder air moves in aloft.

SEnd it south, we need the rain.

Becky - great balloon setup photos, hopefully you can make it back and they are able to fly this afternoon.

Lisa - Tell them if they want that much control it will cost them $X amount because of all of the time that you will have to spend double checking with them, and that some things will not be photographed because you will have to spend the time looking for them instead of doing the job that you were hired to do (or tell them that you quit, which I know is not an option, but may relieve some stress)

The Doodlebunz family are up in the air on the way to Chicago, on their way back home

Tiff - how are you feeling today?

Gaaaaa, Lisa, sure wish you weren't stuck between a rock and a hard place on this one. But remember it is only one and not a standard one, don't let it sour you on those where you are hired and can make the calls.

I read that last line as "May you have underwear today"
after momentary surprise, I thought, awww how sweet.
