Why don’t I have time?
March 10th, 2010I’ve recently starting working for myself. I absolutely love it– I love the projects, I love the work environment (right now I’m in my bed, with my cup of tea), the commute is tolerable (at some point I’ll have to migrate over to my desk) and I absolutely love having control over things.
But I thought [...]
Snowy safetygoat
February 24th, 2010It’s been snowing like it’s going out of style here in Canada, and faced with a foot of snow at the cottage in Gatineau, I first made a friend to support me in my shovelling/scooping efforts!

Writing more this year… project52
January 4th, 2010I recently came upon Sam Brown’s blog post on project52. As much as I want to berate people that take on these challenges, I’m a sucker for them. While I’m going to take it semi-seriously, I think it’s a great thing to post more consistently.
Anyway, here’s the first week’s post. Sorry it’s so boring. The [...]
Last year’s goals, 50% complete… plus goals for 2010
January 1st, 2010So it’s the end of the year, and I look back at last year’s new year’s resolutions, and I’m pretty pleased with what’s happened.
