August 4th – 10th

Columbus

After mom and dad headed back to Florida, I was busy working on a project for my friend Rick. He is launching a new company (kinda like a talent agency of sorts) in the coming weeks and he had this huge photo shoot. His wife is my best friend AND responsible for me living in Columbus (she hired me back in 1996 at our former job).

Anyway, he asked me do craft services, which is something I absolutely LOVE doing, but it’s a huge undertaking. In the TV/Film world, ‘craft services’ is Latin for “catering”.

I spent several days planning the menu and then shopping at various stores to keep within the budget. I had a blast!

The photo shoot turned into a 20 hour day! But it was so much fun! I was doing something I loved, with people I loved. It was so awesome to be spending a SATURDAY not only WITH my friends, but also HELPING my friends. It’s something that I rarely have a chance to do.

In the days after, I was able to catch up on a few things around the house.

I also got to go visit some other long time friends, Eric & Stacia. I had dinner with them and their adorable boys. I worked with Eric for 5 years at my former job and Stacia is a client of mine.

It has been a busy, busy, busy week – but oh how wonderful! I wish I could have more weeks like this – spent with friends!
