Spending another night at the hospital with my mom. We're hoping for her discharge tomorrow. We don't want to leave CA to go back to NY until she's out of the hospital. Shooting for Tuesday or Wednesday now. While I was at the house, my cousins and my aunt came by to see the kids. It was a nice visit.
Soon when this has all slowed down, I'll be posting about photography again. This whole thing has just eaten up so much of my mind that it's hard to think about anything else. It's hard to even go out and shoot. I planned to do a lot of shoots while in Los Angeles (one of which was a "Hollywood at Night" shoot), but decide against it, because I feel guilty going out and doing something for myself when my mom is going through this.
I have to start focusing on building some more money doing portraits, and such...I have to start earning money to upgrade my equipment. My lenses need a major upgrade. I'm not necessarily unhappy with my Canon XSi body, but with every shot I take without some money coming in, the closer I get to the end of the life of my camera with no money to replace it should it die. I think the Canon XSi is rated at 50,000 actuations. Which means generally speaking, around shot 50,000 the shutter might start dying out. God knows how many I've taken.
