I have been busy planning the second annual Halloween Candy Buy Back for Omaha Emergency Dental. This year’s event is scheduled for 3:30 to 6 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 1 at Omaha Emergency Dental’s office on 84th & Center streets.
We will be buying candy back from trick-or-treaters for $1 a pound, up to 5 pounds of candy. We’ll also give everyone a free toothbrush.
I’ve created logos for several businesses over the years, and they’re being used on letterhead, business cards, Web sites and other marketing pieces. But this fall, I achieved a first: a logo I created was also used on a building sign.
Bouda Life Coaching (BLC) hired me to create the logo for Your Weight Loss For Life, their newest business venture. The weight loss plan offers the usual counseling on nutrition, health and exercise, and combines it with life coaching by JoAnn Bouda and medical coaching by her husband, David W. Bouda, M.D.
Today is International Freelancers Day. I’m taking some time today to look back at what has worked for my business, and things I need to do in the future to continue my success.
Catena Creations marked its third anniversary last week. I hit an important milestone this month: I’d been in business long enough that I had to renew my domain name/Web site address for anther three years.
Three of my photographs have been selected to illustrate the first edition of The Practical Beekeeper: Beekeeping Naturally. The book is available in hardcover and paperback, and is now on sale at Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble.
The beekeeper is Michael Bush, who has gained an international reputation as an organic beekeeper. The book is simply a printed compilation of the information he’s posted over the years on the Bush Bees beekeeping Web site.
On July 1, I had the privilege of donning a bee suit and joining Michael at his farm south of Greenwood to photograph the bees. It wasn’t that hot — yet.
Last week my son and I drove down to Haworth Park in Bellevue to check out the Missouri River flooding. It was overwhelming and sad.
Photos from our trip across the river are on my SmugMug gallery.
