This week has brought many mixed emotions. On the business front, we've seen our client base growing leaps and bounds this past week. New clients, large clients, new opportunities and promising projects/proposals abound around us. We've (my wife and I) have developed new ideas, fresh directions, and great concepts that could take both our businesses to new heights. I also completed my first 30 day challenge utilizing Wii Active and lost another pound.  Any other week, this would have kept us on a major high. But this wasn't just any other week. And I apologize if my writing seems disjointed. It's difficult to really even know where to start. With all of the new beginnings, life was counterbalanced by an ending.

Florence McLeodMy Grandmother-In-Law, Florence McLeod, passed away early this week. I've been married going on 9 years now. I met my wife in 2000 and had the pleasure of meeting Grandma McLeod in person twice. Being that my wife and I met online, with me in Palm Coast, Fl, and her in Hazelton, British Columbia at the time, there wasn't that much time for me to spend up there around her family. But the times that I did meet her, were such a pleasure.  Meeting her for the first time was nothing short of awesome! She came up to me, gave me a hug, and looked me square in the eyes and confidently spoke the words I'll never forget. "Welcome to Canada. It's God's country". It was said with such a gentle sincerity, confidence, and admiration for the country she loved. She was such a kind, caring woman. She was known for many things at her church, from baker, auto harp player, gardener, & in charge of the music for the younger age.  She was a woman that loved her church and loved her family.  At my wedding, as I was making my way around the family & guest tables, my interaction with her was one of the few that I remember on such a whirlwind of a day.  "You take good care of my Natasha. She's a special one. You know, when my husband died she would spend so much time with me, keeping me company. You let her come back home every once in a while to see us. I'll miss her dearly".  She also told me that she knew that her grand daughter was in good hands. I've always wanted to make sure that my wife's family knew that  I would always do my best to take care of her. And Grandma McLeod was a huge part of that.

Another week that's gone by and jeez I'm sore. With work loads increasing at an exponential rate, I have every usual "excuse" to put off exercise. Time to just put it off to the side and say "Oh, I'll get to it tomorrow. My schedule is better then". And tomorrow never comes.

But I'm having too much fun!

Purchasing Wii Active has been one of the best decisions I've made in forever. Exercising is fun again. Eating right is feels right again. And tracking weight LOSS is fun (that never stopped being fun, but the "loss" part hasn't happened in a while). With the increase in activity, decrease in body fat, I see my trend line decreasing finally. And exercising is an actual priority and not something I dread. When I initially started my weight loss 3 years ago, I had gusto for months. I was a wrecking ball of putting fat into a headlock (a visual that I just created for myself that I wish I could "ctl-z" that bad boy) and there was nothing stopping me. I was a bit of a frenzied exercise junkie. And it's all because of this man:

Tony Horton

Nothing against "Captain What The Hell" up there but once I stopped, I just couldn't get back into it.

Stuff like this never happens to me. Okay, never mind, stuff like this has a thing for happening to me. I was invited into an editorial meeting for an upcoming publication to manage the design/implementation for {redacted} magazine's web presence. The meeting was held at a branch of one of the many library's in town. It was at 6 pm when the meeting started and things had went incredibly well during the meeting. A lot of great information was shared and it ended up being a 2 hour closed door meeting. Did I mention close door? Now explain something to me. As an employee of a public facility, where there is a high turn over of people in and out of the building you work in, isn't it normal practice to check every room before closing down? Whether it be to check for people still meeting, if there were teenagers studying, or hey, even to see if the lights were still on.

I guess not.

The End is the Beginning is the End.

GoombaIt's a new year, the technical end of the decade has begun. It's a time of fresh starts for just about everyone wearing a party hat on December 31st at 11:59. Like hitting the reset button after crashing into the first Goomba in Super Mario Bros. You just can't let it start that way. For me, it's the end of a 3 year, self imposed, exile from exercising. Let me give you a little back story.

In preparation of getting Project 52 underway, I have decided that it's time to trim the fat both literal and in the digital sense. The focus of my Project 52 posts will be geared at weight loss, and I want to use multiple digital tools to help me keep track, stay focused, and accomplish my goal in style. I want to use social media as an accountability tool as well. But with so many networks that I'm apart of, I find that there are a many networks that are just a little long in the tooth. So as of tonight,
