Getting Caught Up

I came back to my little one room cabin on the lake from my winter sojourn through the states and especially Arizona and started focusing on creating income immediately. I had sold a number of Ballroom classes while still in Arizona and created a new ladies dance workout routine (that came to me while running in the mornings through the desert) called Become a Dancing Queen. The women are all calling it the disco class and it has turned out extremely well with big classes. It really does release the endorphins as I said it would.

I also picked up a few bookkeeping clients and continued with my current ones. I have a dance video and have been asked to replace my friend and mentor Greg (who passed away suddenly see my blog saying goodbye to a friend) as camera for main stage at Mariposa this year (sooooo looking forward to Taj Mahal a big flashback to my 70's living in the Yorkville Village in Toronto. Now remembering going to see Neil Young at the Riverboat...hmm..the good ole days.

I have a ton of video to edit and upload to Youtube so I can download it back to my websites. I also am transferring some dvds of little videos I had done previously including some dance routines back to mini dv tape so I can upload and then download as well.

I spent most of the winter in my rv researching and writing my proposals on two documentaries I have been obsessed with and working on for 8 years. I now have three more I want to get down on paper. Just waiting for some production companies with far more experience than I to assist me with them. I cannot wait until I have a crew and can go back to just being a producer. In the meantime am keeping myself focused and diverted with patience on making some money.

I still have to change all the ads over on this site and blog and fix up my myspace page...

Anyway now that I covered the rent and visa bills for another month..will get it all done. I am really proud of the footage I shot in Oklahoma.....with the buffalo stampeding toward me!!....have my tickets for Boz Scaggs...and hoping one of these days I will actually have a datel.....later
