No Pain, No Gain…

On April 7 of this year, I stepped on the scale and my heart sunk; I was 236 lbs. Factoring in my height, if you calculated my BMI, I was 1/100 point off of the start of obesity. I was the stereotypical couch potato geek, who’s only form of exercise was typing.
Why, you may ask, [...]

On risk, and the fear thereof….

I am going to address something I read in an online forum this morning. It was written by someone who read through my blog and posted a comment on it. I write this not as a slam on him/her, but because until quite recently, I thought the same thing.
The comment that the poster made (in [...]

On Maine…

I am finally taking a well deserved vacation in Maine, my second “home”. As I have mentioned in earlier posts, my parents moved up here after my brother, sister and I moved out and started our separate lives. My parents decided to start fresh as well, so they built a house on a property they [...]

Been Busy…

I apologize for the gap, a lot has been going on.
First, my wife had it in her head that the hall bathroom needed to be redecorated. So, she tore down all the wallpaper and left the rest to me. She wanted me to re-prep the walls for painting, and re-tile a section of the bathroom [...]

A Funny Thing…

(Originally Posted on my Wordpress.com Blog, projectnomad.wordpress.com)
For a while now, I have wanted to move off of wordpress.com and get my own domain. I would have a lot more freedom to do stuff and, hopefully, eventually find some way of deriving income from the site. The problem was, every time I would look for a [...]

Blogging for the sake of blogging…

The reason I have not posted in so long is that nothing has really changed much. I am not one to really post crap when I have nothing to say, nor do I like being pressured in to having to write every day (or week or..uhhh month)…
I have seen some really interesting resources, and I [...]

Move To…Move Away…

I remember reading something somewhere that all of human behavior derives from two basic tendencies: “seek pleasure” and “avoid pain” or on a more basic level, move towards something, move away from something.
Yesterday, I posted a link to Catherine Lawson’s excellent collection of resources for entrepreneurs. She saw it and came to my [...]

Finding New Clients

Over at Bootstrapper, there is a great post on creative ways to find new clients. You can find it here. Also adding the site to my blogroll.
I have been really busy coordinating the closing for my house. The lender I am using wants to use their lawyer to do the closing, this after my lawyer [...]

…and Ye Shall Receive…

So, this weekend we had a family emergency, and I had to get my wife up to New York City to tend to her ailing mother. (I had to pay through the nose for a last-minute airline ticket…arrrgh!). In the meantime, I am spending the week between work (and a very important project) and being [...]

Our House is a very, very, very, fine house…

Sorry, putting on my real estate investor hat on for this post…
So…this is how my day went…
9:00 a.m. Met with the Appraiser at the house I am buying… Nice guy - put up with me pointing out absolutley everything nice about the house (Nice House = Nice Appraisal = more money to pay for the [...]
