Diet and blog update

We have been slammed since the first of the year so I have gotten behind on blogging and fell off the wagon on my diet at least a couple of times. Now however, the holidays are over, our annual church special meetings for the year are over, annual sales meeting up in Canada at my day job is complete so I will not have to try to lose weight on restaurant food or on big meals Lorena prepares for visitors. I actually did better than I usually do and currently at my lowest weight since I started the diet-16.5 lbs. lost. Only 44.5 lbs. to go.

In addition to the diet thing and my day job, I have a couple of side projects (a development project with my buddy Gene I plan to chronicle quite a bit more and a, believe or not, real estate project with my buddy Mark P.), and a three or four more remodel projects. So, I plan to write on all this until one of the side projects turns into a business and/or I retire and continue to try to find a work from home business. Over the next couple of days I will talk about the development stuff Gene and I are doing and the business idea/model behind it.

New flooring scheduled for install

We received an email from our flooring guy on Friday. It seems there is a sale on just the exact kind of flooring we want to put in the upstairs of our house. It should get shipped to the house within the next day or two after which it sits and “acclimates” in the house for a few days before it is installed. We were going to put it in the whole house, but decided we would only put it on the stairs and the top floor (money!), but we also decided that we would get rid of the nasty carpet in the master bedroom and replace it with the same stuff that is on the main floor of the living room and kitchen. We are excited to get started, but the house will be in upheaval again for a week or two more. We will have to get to the down stairs in a year or so.
