I’m coming down with something. Headache, sore throat, runny nose, feel like shit.
On top of that my foot has been numb, painful, pins and needles since Friday.
I just laid down to try and nap but I am crying and having a pity party because I have three days of warehouse work in front of me. I have to work or my phone will be shut off Friday.
Also 7yo has two baseball games this week. They’re so late, like 6:30. And I get up at 3am for work. 😩
After a long bout of unemployment, I now work a job that is very difficult to get hours for.
I've always wanted to work for myself, but thought I didn't have the skills, talent or interest in anything like that.
For some reason, I never thought of or considered photography.
I was talking to my grown daughter and suddenly it occurred to me. I could easily do what a woman in my old town used to do. She took affordable pictures for people in the community. She would set up different backdrops at different community events and at every holiday.
I love taking pictures and it's something that my new community could use. And I think it would be fun. My daughter is also excited about the idea. Just a way to make a little extra money.
Although, I don't know where to start. I have a lot of research to do. Not just the logistics of being self-employed and taxes, etc. But the right equipment to start out with. I need to also build some kind of portfolio.
Should we take some photography classes?
I certainly have time. Will have to save a while to get equipment.
Any advice or online resources for information is appreciated.
