A Weekend Offline

posted on October 15, 2007

Friday was my 11th wedding anniversary and Laura and I took the day off from work and I pretty much stayed off the computer the rest of the weekend. I’d check in to see if there was anything going insane and since there wasn’t I moved on from there. So much stuff, so little time so let’s go with some brain slurpees today.Cider Donuts

  • Recorded Accident Hash #246 this morning. All chick rock!
  • Working on strategy for a new client this morning and finishing up some proposals for several others.
  • Verizon (a client) had a block party this past weekend for My Home 2.0. Lots of pictures here if your curious. Next one is in November in the Pittsburgh area. Join the My Home 2.0 Facebook group if you want to have the latest information.
  • Yesterday I made beef stew and apple pie. It is a Chapman fall tradition. It was damn yummy and you’ve gotta love left overs.
  • Took the kids apple picking on Saturday at Honey-Pot Hill Orchards. This is just one of the many pictures I took.
  • Trying to take care of PodCamp Boston 2 obligations.
  • Learning that online banking is fine, but it can also be enough to drive a guy batty when some things can only be done by phone rather then online. Grrr…..
  • Really trying to figure out if there is any way to sell my house before the end of the year. Debating if we take the house off the market for the winter so we don’t have to worry about logistics or what we do. Lots of good memories in that house, but I’m ready to completely move on. Can’t do so until it is sold.
  • I need to buy a white board. I need to buy one now. Feels like a good task for this afternoon to run out and buy one. I’m lost without one I’ve determined.

I’m sure there are a million other things going on in my mind and that I’m forgetting some. That seems to be an ongoing trend that I need to stop and thus the need for the white board.

    Hey C.C., sounds like a great weekend! Grats again on your 11th.

    I think I may actually need to unplug today. My dog accidently smashed my nose while we were playing this weekend and I have a cold also. I took some form of tylenol mashup, and I think I may be a bit stoned.

    I saw that this post was up on Twitter, so I came over, then zoned out. I saw the pic in the post and thought, That looks like C.C.’s son, then zoned out again. I then actually started to read the post and realized, yeah, I’m on C.C.’s site, thus that is his son. I then zoned again for a bit.

    Can anybody say Twilight Zone?

    I now seem to have regained my mind, at least for a while, but I still think a nap would do me good. I will email you the info I promised later today, tomorrow at the latest. If I lay down I may not get back up for quite a while.

    Cheers!

    Some things I might ask about the house:

    Do you have it listed through an agent or FSBO?
    Is it listed on MLS?
    If you are trying to sell it without a Realtor, have you visited Realtor offices with fliers (I know, how non-techy!)
    Do you have the house staged?

    With the slowing of the market right now, all the little things help to add up to a great home sale.

    I was offline all Sunday as we super cleaned the garage. Something that was needed to be done for a long time. I’m sore from the experience, but the wife is happy. Being offline helps you to not take it for granted and appreciate it more.

    I love my white board, and so does Virginia. Sometimes I get cute little drawings along side my notes. Helps keep it all in perspective, you know.
