We are getting some nice rain today and highs are in the low 40s and lows in the high 30s. The pile of snow on the back deck is shrinking and the roof line that had it’s ice dam removed is now almost clear. We are happy there isn’t much of a chance of water … Read more
The weather has been warming up and we are expecting some rain tonight and through Thursday. I’m interested to see how much snow melt we get. The streets are damp with water melting from the sides of roads. There is a new marketing book I’ve been excitedly reading recently. It was originally published in 1966 … Read more
Today was a lovely blue sky day. The temperature was up in the mid 30s and it was really comfortable. Things are starting to melt and there is water everywhere. It is supposed to be in the 40s later this week with heavy rain and the news is talking about the region wide need to … Read more

Today I did writing for work and interacting with some Facebook business groups to get back into showing that I exist. The writing is for sort of an online mini-course I’m building to attract more people to my email list. It’s an experiment and someone from my regular list opt-ed in to it so I … Read more
Today was pretty quiet compared to yesterday. I went to the gym and spent the rest of the work day on marketing projects for my own business. I drove with my girlfriend Chris to her tutoring appointment and she was hungry after (i.e. didn’t want to wait till we got back to her house) and … Read more
Today was a pretty intense day of work for one of my clients. They want to launch a fairly big marketing program this week and needed some extra web pages designed and setup on a short timeline. So I agreed to put a bunch of other things aside and get it done. For money, of … Read more
