I thought I should probably introduce myself a tiny bit. My name is Milly, I'm 30, and I live in the Bronx with one dog (a little beagle who is always hungry even after she has just eaten) and one boyfriend (
with his own etsy shop!). We are both big-time night owls. I have been known to cook dinner around midnight! I am lucky to make my living as a freelance camera assistant (film and tv), though I am trying to get away from all that and eventually make my living with my own business, doing what I really love (art and craft).
I say I am lucky, though sometimes working as a crew member feels like a curse. More on
that some other time...(and there is lots more!) But I am lucky because being freelance means I don't work every day, and I have plenty of time to devote to my
etsy shop (well, there are
two of them actually). It is sort of like working part-time... but usually working just a 3-day week means 40 hours. And a 5-day week usually means 65-75 hours. So it's a bit hard to describe. But some weeks I don't work at all. So it all sort of averages out, you know?
I might write about my day job from time to time... but only when I have a really good story to share! That's it for the moment, thanks for reading!
Almost as soon as I posted the photo of Hunter in the previous post, she climbed back in the basket. And I promise you, I didn't stage that bit of lace over her face.
Then she settled in for a little nap. And by the way, she has numerous dog beds in every room of the house (except the bathroom). But I guess she likes making up her own dog beds.
Is is just me, or does anyone else find this incredibly funny? My beagle Hunter has this habit of always crawling into baskets or containers full of soft things, i.e., the laundry basket while it's full of clothing or freshly laundered towels! Last night was particularly amusing because she crawled into this very small basket full of fabric scraps. Then she posed there for several minutes while I almost fell out of my chair laughing and snapping photos.
