Recently I was recommended a short book to read called The Go-Giver by Bob Burg and John David Mann. Seeing as I was going to be spending some time on a plane I thought it would likely make a good choice as something to get through quickly while traveling. The book is written in theContinue reading “The Go-Giver”

Automattic Dance Party
This Grand Meetup which I just returned from has been a bit of a roller coaster for me. Really my emotions leading up to it, while I was there, then coming home have had me all over the place. Realistically I’m still processing a lot of what I learned, what I’m going to take away,Continue reading “Automattic Dance Party”
Home Again
Not sure where to complain. I came out of my room this morning and there wasn’t a never ending supply of breakfast foods or buckets of coffee waiting for me. When I mentioned it to my wife she wasn’t very receptive to my problem. Although being in Park City Utah with my co-workers for aContinue reading “Home Again”

Strange Feeling
Have you ever been in a crowded room and felt all alone? I’ve had that feeling a few times over the past week even though I’ve been surrounded by awesome people. The feelings came mostly in the beginning and now closer to the end of our company meetup. To me it means a few things.Continue reading “Strange Feeling”

It’s Pumpkin People Time and Everything is Awesome
We live in an agriculture and rural area of Nova Scotia, so Fall is a big time of year. We celebrate the harvest and there are plenty of events on the go all the time. It might be heading to the farm markets for some fun activities, or a visit to one of the manyContinue reading “It’s Pumpkin People Time and Everything is Awesome”
Week Eight Summary
The end has come of my eight week session. The results weren’t as good as I wanted when it came to the weight loss part, but I can live with the results. In mid July I started at 225lbs, which is very disappointing because last summer I was basically where I wanted to be forContinue reading “Week Eight Summary”
Apple Picking
We went apple picking as a family today at Noggins Farm Market just outside of Wolfville. It was like we were tourists in our own town. There were so many people around all looking to do the same thing. Enjoy the Autumn in the Annapolis Valley and take a tractor pulled wagon ride back toContinue reading “Apple Picking”
