I have been remiss writing on here or anywhere. I have had a lot of life experiences but finding the time and energy to actually post is a sort of tedious task I find difficult to conceive most days.
We're moving. We had been living on a temporary basis in a house that was vacant but for sale by someone we knew. What we didn't KNOW was this person was not able to make their mortgage payments and wound up in default. We paid rent every month, but I guess it wasn't enough. We got a default notice posted to our door and then found ourselves in dire need of new digs.
We have since found the water also was not paid by the landlord and are grateful we were able to find a house in short order. It's a bigger house on less property but monthly rate is also less and there are amenities. A community pool, we're on a lake, there are any number of outdoor possibilities and a clubhouse. All part of the HOA perks. Until we're ready to buy this will do nicely. We have some financial things to work out...such as divisions in past relationships etc.
We have my daughter living with us now. She has been trying to find a job in IT. Not an easy thing to do without using connections, something she seems loathe to do. It makes our relationship journey difficult, but not impossible.
We've been working at our new webtv show, GeekSpeak TV. We really enjoy doing it. Sometimes we struggle to get an agenda, but we work it out. There should be a handbook of things you should know to have one of these shows but the truth is it's all so new and no one seems to have a template.
We're trying to find a venue for a breakfast in Seattle. It's part of the Breakfast with Jeff Pulver series. Jeff will of course be there and he recently sent a message to tell us that Robert Scoble also will. He will be co-host. We're excited about this and look forward to spending time with Jeff.
Ken and I had a poll on our website, Stardust Global Ventures, and it was with regard to following around 1 of 5-6 people for a day..shadowing them. Jeff Pulver won the dubious honor of being our first victim. He has very nicely agreed to allow us to film it. We're super thrilled. Ok, I am. ;o) I just love the idea of following Jeff around. He's so interesting. I just wish I could garner his visions by osmosis. I'd love to have one tenth the amount of know how he seems to have and also that ever illusive vision. Some people really seem to get it and beyond getting it, know how to catch the attention of others with their enthusiasm. Jeff is really good at that. During the recent VON.x conference Ken and I attended, Jeff was doing a keynote and I could have just listened all day. He's that engaging!
So for now I'll leave you with my pseudo swan song. Pseudo because I'm not finished blogging. Here or anywhere, but because I'm off on another day full of wonderment. ;o) Oh...and since I didn't share it anywhere other than twitter, have a listen to the song our Good Friend Scott Wilder wrote for our engagement. He's a miracle man with composition. He talked to us and asked about what made this special etc. The culmination is beyond magic. Oh, and he's about to experience his own little magic. He and his wife, Kathie, are expecting their first baby. We are ecstatic for them.
