Still Here, Still Grinding …
I’m not even going to get into how terrible of a blogger I am. In fact, I’m really not a blogger at all. I’m more of a “write something when I feel like it” kind of person or in other words, I’m lazy … sloth-like lazy.
So, what’s new with everyone out there?
Nothing new on my end. I’m still at the same job I don’t necessarily love, but I don’t loathe it either, so I accept it for what it is - a means to an end. I’m still grinding on my 5-7 year plan, which by the way, never really moves in years. It was 5-7 years five or seven years ago and it will probably be the same next year. It’s still a plan and I’m moving at a turtle’s pace towards it, but I’m still moving forward so, that’s my positive thought for the day.
J and I are still running our side businesses (yes, businesses). I call them, the Good, the Bad and the Ugly. They too are moving along, but certainly aren’t the million dollar overnight success businesses one could hope for. We seem to spend a lot of time evolving and tweaking our businesses, which I know is a must, but it can be exhausting particularly given the speed that social media evolves. Some days I’m not feeling social at all, but we will continue to plug away however, as they form an integral part of our retirement plans.
I hope to write more frequently as I do enjoy it. I’m not sure if I’ll continue on this forum or I’ll move to blogging for our websites. I’d prefer to stay put, as I can be open and not overly politically correct, but duty (and my future retirement) calls, so I might need to sell-out to the man. It won’t matter though because I haven’t been a participant here in a long time.
If you care to see what we’ve been up to, stop by anyone of our Etsy shops or websites:
Elegance Is Infinite
Surfing Flamingo
Tipsy Flamingo
I hope everyone is going well!
