Wow, I haven’t added anything new around here in quite some time. Life has been busy these past few months. Some really good, and some really bad things have happened, but that is life after all.

I will be making this website a priority for the new year, at least to keep active on it, not that it needs to be updated every hour, but I would like to keep it current with things. No more month long intervals where I update nothing. Stay tuned!

I’m finally in my new place and I love it! It will be two weeks tomorrow and still happy with everything, the location, the neighborhood, the house. I will be moving things around allot with the construction that I’m planning. I’m going to open up a wall here, redo some flooring there, you know, normal home owner stuff. My list of things to do is ever growing, but I’m just going to take my time and keep checking things off.

You can take a peek at some of the before photos here.

The house hunt has finally ended. Dealing with foreclosure banks is a damn hassle. They complain that they have this huge inventory of houses on their hands, and then all they want to do is sell to “cash” buyers. If they were as interested in getting qualified people into the homes they have as they are getting rid of them, things would have been so much smoother.

But I digress… I have a few more items to get finalized, but should be closing at the end of the month. I can’t wait! The home needs some work but I was looking for a mild fixer-upper. Once I get the keys I will get some photos online.

Found this website today and I have to say it’s pretty cool. Just a bunch of musical and random clips from YouTube all in the key of B Flat. I played around with it for a few minutes and it sounded pretty good. Very ambient sounding, but all in all, it’s damn clever.

So it’s obvious, well since I’m the only one who looks at this website, to me anyway, that I haven’t updated anything for a bit. I’ve actually been super busy recently, and lazy to boot. I’ve been swamped with work so I haven’t been doing much personal work and have been trying to spend time away from my computer to enjoy the real world. Here are a few of the things that have kept me busy:

• My Ideal Franchise
• BikeCaffe
• Life In Neutral
• House Hunting (and waiting on banks to make decisions)

While things are keeping me busy, I’m pretty satisfied with how everything is turning out. As always, I’m planning on getting more up here, but who knows? You’ll see it, when I see it.

I’ve set up a small website for brother Sean and me. We both tend to procrastinate on things that we want to do, and for no good reason, just because that’s life. We’ve decided that enough is enough, and now have this website to keep us motivated.

Life In Neutral

The website is a concept based from a book I read from a past client called “The Game“. Essentially, it’s a game that you play to accomplish goals you set for yourself, such as losing weight, eating right, painting once a week, etc. There are rules and teammates to keep you motivated. If you don’t accomplish the certain tasks you set, well, then there are punishments.

If my brother misses 5 days of not getting up before 9:00am, he has to shave his head! And, if I miss 5 days of Portuguese lessons, I have to grow a neck beard, or Neard, for two weeks. Lets just say I’m not going to miss any lessons…haha.

Hopefully, these silly punishments will keep us on track and allow us to accomplish our goals that, truthfully, we should just do anyway. I guess life is just more fun when you have the fear of unwanted facial hair.
