Laundry Day!

Woot woot! Buckle your seat belts ladies and gentlemen, we're about to discuss the most interesting topic in the world ... Laundry!

Here's a little fact for your dudes who might be staying home, or thinking of staying home with your children ... there's a shit ton of laundry! (Perdon my French) I'm totally used to doing laundry for myself, ever since my mom taught me before I went to college. But I'm easy. I have 7 shirts, 2 pairs of shorts, and 2 pairs of jeans. (Do I wear underwear? You'll never know.) But add 1 woman, and 2 girls to the mix and that's a lot of laundry!! We all know women have a lot of clothes and younger women have TONS of clothes!

Z takes over Blackwell Photography tasks while Dad does laundry

One of the facts of being a Stay at Home Dad means you have to take up certain roles in the household you normally wouldn't. Laundry is one of them. Washing dishes, cooking and keeping the house clean are all other chores you find yourself doing as your wife sits in a cubicle and punches out sales. Is it fun? Not always. But if you get a good system going, it doesn't take forever and you feel so much better once it's all day.

I takes a nap, being cute and providing motivation

I think I need an apron. ;) I plan on having dinner ready for Stacey when she gets home from work this evening, but for now both of the ladies are taking a nap (Yay for planning that one correctly today) so I'm going to go on the clock and knock out some work.

Cheers!

Where I Am - On The Web

The internet is one big bad tangeled web.  I've been contributing to that digital mess of mass information confusion highway since the late 90's.  Today, with my over zealous creative brain coming up with so many ideas and having so many different platforms to chose from, I've found myself on every other corner of the internet.  So, consider this a little map of my art on the world wide web.


www.blackwellphoto.com 
First, and foremost - the reason I always say I'm always on the internet.  Being a stay at home dad, I do most of our work via the web.  E-mails, video conferences, and social networking all make up my day as well as taking care of a 1 year old woman.  So Blackwell Photography's website is the #1 place to find me online.  It is the core of internet presence ... the reason I'm even here, blogging!

Blackwell Photography's webpage is an idea Stacey and I conceptualized one day in the park.  It's a combination of our work.  The Trinity of websites, as I like to call it.  Her portfolio can be found at stacey.blackwellphoto.com, where as mine can be found at marc.blackwellphoto.com.  Our wedding page is it's own seperate site located at weddings.blackwellphoto.com.  That leads to the other subpages, blog.blackwellphoto.com & photos.blackwellphoto.com, where you can view galleries and purchase downloads and/or prints.

Leading into the "social networking sites" in a minute, but still sticking to business.  You can find Blackwell Photography on Facebook by clicking that link.  Twitter, Yelp, Myspace, Tumblr, too.

My personal Facebook site is dedicated to blogs I post here, random status updates, and also a place to share news/blogs/photos/& stuff.B.  It's an overall gathering place for your MB fill.  If you're a Lucas Grabeel fan, or a Drew Seeley fan - you aint gettin' through to this one unless you're super cool.  Haha!

My Twitter page is more laxed and I like to have more followers.  The more the merrier - for some reason...  It's a little more raunchy and fun.  I still promote Blackwell Photography through it, but now with the new BP Twitter, it'll more be a home for letting you know I posted a picture of Zoe somewhere.

My Twitpic is a photo site dedicated to my every day blog kinda pictures. Photos of my hot wife and I going out on dates, to shots of me on a movie set.  Whateva.

My tumblr is a place to post iPhone pics.  Anyone with an iPhone needs 1 dedicated place to upload those pictures to for years.  It's the only way to create a good archive.  And after many attempts and many different photo sharing sites, I've grown to like tumblr for my iPhone viewing needs.

Of course, this blog at Blogger is an old journal of written madness.  It dates back to 2006, so I'll keep it around for a while even if I don't post to it on any regular schedule whatsoever.
