Resolutions Review – First Quarter of 2011

photo © 2006 Grant Kwok | more info (via: Wylio) I wrote a four-part series about my New Year’s Resolutions at the beginning of this year. Now that a quarter of the year has passed, it’s time to take a look at how well I have done so far and what adjustments I need toContinue Reading

What’s the Haps, Jack?

Once again, I go a while without update. But, there is a good reason for it. I’ve been busier than a, well, I’ve been pretty damned busy. Let’s see, last you heard, it was early March and I was just working a job as a contract/temporary mechanical designer while still getting the house done. Here’sContinue Reading

Long Time, No ‘See’

Once again I find myself being more than delinquent in my frequencies of updating this page. So much has happened in the last few months.

It’s nice being busy. Work’s been a chore with major ECO’s being pushed through and the Manufacturing/Planning being big ‘oleContinue Reading
