It's been a while since I did a journal entry or any sort of real update. I haven't really been doing any "real" photography for probably a year now. And as you may have noticed, I'm pretty absent from this site. Still, there are many comments and a lot of people buying prints! I feel pretty lucky to be getting this kind of support and feedback without barely showing my face or promoting myself. Then again, maybe my lack of desire to promote myself helps me more than it hurts me.

So, thank you. I'm still working on projects and ideas I was before, as well as some new stuff. It will probably be years before much of it surfaces. I'm easily distracted, and life develops in such strange ways.

Things have been going much better, though! This is the first time in a while I've been single for an extended period of time and its been really great for me. I needed it. After my last relationship (no one to blame, it takes two for better or worse) I was pretty depressed and unhealthy. Just not in good shape. Took me a few months to start to get better. I had put on weight again, and I was just miserable and lethargic with everything. Started taking better care of myself and over the months things got much better. You know...For at least 4-5 years, I've never been below 180lbs. In the winter here, it's easy to put on weight, and I'd often reach up past 200lbs, I even hit 235 once in 2009. I usually peak around march-april and then when it warms up, my energy level rises and I tend to cut about 20 pounds over the summer.

Anyway...I supplemented vitamin D3 this winter, a common deficiency where I live. That in addition to better diet in general, my energy level and mood stayed up most of the winter, save maybe a couple other girl issues here and there pissing me off haha...Anyway, right now I'm 170lbs, which is incredible for me at this time of year. It's hard to believe, how much vitality I feel. For it to be a healthy weight loss is the thing that I'm proud of I guess. Old school and Organic. That's how I like to keep it.

Love Yall,

Thomas
