Ouch, so almost three months later I come back to the blog. A bit sad. This summer has been one for the books. I came back from the vacation facing MAJOR technical problems with my business. My primary money making server was crashing at least once a day and everything else was seemingly crumbling before my eyes. On top of that, there were plenty of other things to deal with, including some family outings to see extended family and some business trips.

Long and short, 90% of the technical problems are now resolved (100% of the critical ones). I definitely broke all the rules of Life/Work balance and some of my own resolutions this summer. For about six weeks I worked about 14 hours a day, attended to family and church duties a couple of hours, ate and then finally slept about 5 hours a day. Oh well.

I am even more resolved than ever to change the way I do things. This is going to be a process of goal setting and accomplishment though, not a one and done decision that easily leads to better times. I have not “designed” my life such that I can just fall away from the responsibilities I have right now. But I know that I can slowly get there with some creativity and hard/smart work.

I have some projects that are progressing, far more slowly than I want, but given recent distractions, I’m just happing they are still going. I will try to do better on this blog to keep my mind focused on the important stuff.
