I have a swap on PIF to get some VG, then I can start playing with my small group of DIY stuff.

Yeah, last night I finally tried to lay down at 4:30, then alarm went off at 5:30 ...

DIY, sounds like fun. I still hope it Turns out better then our attempt.

Yeah, I've been averaging between 5:00 and 6:00 on a good night and 7:00 on a bad (or should I say morning) Luckily the hubby gets up with the kids in the morning at about 7:45am, but not only am I not in a deep sleep yet, my mommy instincts kick in and I lie in bed half listening and half sleeping to make sure they make it out of the house with everything they need. So I don't really get to sleep, sleep until 8:30 and I normally end up getting a call from a customer or something by 10:00 - 10:30.

I figure I'll sleep enough when I am dead!

I can nap once DD goes off to school, but then I know I'll be up again that night, so it's a vicious cycle .....
But I have to admit .... I love laying in bed mid-morning when it's quiet, not really to sleep, but it's warm and comfy, and I do my planning then. LOL

I've never been one to nap! If I am tired enough to need a nap at the point I am usually too over tired to nap. I can however run on two hours sleep a night like I've slept an entire night for a few weeks running and I know I needed sleep when I wake up and it is 2:00 in the afternoon! Then the cycle starts over.

Ok ..... XL CE2 is just a bit too long for the TBs, the top of the cup hits right at the top of the cap. I bet it would work in an XL.
Reg CE2 would probably work in a reg tank .... I could rig one for pics if you want me to.

Pics are always welcomed.

By the way, when are you going to do pics of your GLV, Tank and Trippy for an awesome banner?

Yeah i never nap either. I'm lucky if i get 6 hours of sleep a night. If i end up falling asleep during the day i am then up all night and it becomes quite a pain in the .... to try to get back on a normal sleeping schedule lol.

I'll see if I can get the CE2 done tomorrow .... I already have some cut up.
I was waiting to get the picture when we have some sunlight ..... the color on the body really shows in the sun. I was gonna take them on the deck, just pay my backdrop down and see what I can get. I am not very good at taking pictures, but sometimes they come out great.

Well I'm lucky I work out the house. I have all my customers believing it is better for me to work on their websites late at night (which it actually is) so none of them expect me up with the sunrise, but it never fails that by 10am one of them need something that can't wait! Then I have to answer the phone pretending they just didn't wake me from only 2-3 hours of sleep.

And what is a normal sleep schedule??? :p

Well keep in mind, once we scale the photos down to fit the ECF requirements for a panner, they will all be very small so if the picture is not the best, it won't be noticeable. The smaller a photo gets the less flaws you will see.

And are you telling me you are waiting until it stops raining in Washington to take these photos? That is what waiting for Sunlight means doesn't it? If that is the case we can be waiting a long time LOL!
