Work is a total drag. The situation at church is absolutely mind boggling. I have not had time to code in ages and this weekend is no different!

On the bright side, I did get to post this from my new iPhone app for wordpress!

Have a good weekend everybody

I spent the day today working from home.

When I work from home I toss my laptop on an old desk and roll back and forth between it and my personal PC.

Today I set up my office to accommodate both.

It is hard to believe that everything in the photos’s was already in the room.

Now, if I could only put the same effort into my sites…

Let’s hope it works…

We kicked around some that may work.

Now just to figure out how to expand on them and what direction to take them in.

I need to use a domain I have had for awhile and think I may have found just the way to do it (more on that later)…

If you have any ideas, I would love to hear them.

I came up with an idea for a website that I think will go pretty well. Today I bought the domain.  I will provide the URL when the time is right.

In buying this domain, I hope to accomplish two things. Create a site that will become a financial boomer and get an old friend out of a programming slump.

I will require him to create for me a script for this site. One that I could not write for myself by the time I intend to launch this bad boy!

So, wish me luck.
Say a prayer…

1. Read my Bible daily
2. Count to 10 before yelling at the boys
3. Eat better
4. Exercise
5. Focus on my web work
6. Drop more ( EntreCard )
7. Tweet More
8. Learn more RACF / ACF2 / and Natural programming
9. GeoCache more
10. Learn to relax

That is ten of about a million things I want to do.

I am off to start at least one of them.

It has taken me nearly 9 years, but it has arrived…

I do not bid a lot on ScriptLance like I used to now that I have my full time gig at US Steel.

The 100th job started out simple enough:

There are 2 perl scripts you will be working on for this project.

The first perl script needs to have a routine changed whereby the script will read a specific URL variable and if such is exactly 1 of 4 variables then the script will display the respective html template. If the variable is not 1 of the 4 then it will display another html template. (Currently this script was designed to read the URL variable, check it with a database and display the respective html template, but it only returns the error message.)

The second script needs to be re-written. It will read the respective 4 text databases and print a table from LTR for each of the 4 databases if there are entries in that database. If there are no entries in the database then the script is to print a default message instead of the table.

All the required html templates are done and all the databases have been setup.

But the script was much buggier than anticipated so it took longer.

so maybe by the time I am 50 I will have 200??? LOL

I took care of the user with the problem and decided to stay up and work on a script I have been coding for what seems to be an eternity.

I won’t go into a lot of detail yet, but I think it is a fresh idea. A simple concept really. I am no Alex Tew, but I think I may be on to something… (I hope.)

I have dropped about 150 EntreCards so far today. As well as placed a few ads.

It is now almost 10:30 and I really need to think about breakfast and spending some family time with the wife and kids.

Feel free to follow me on Twitter as I do tend to post the odd update there more often than here or Facebook lately…

I just finished a very interesting week for work. As many of you know I was instructed to work from home due to the G20 Summit being in Pittsburgh this week.

I have honestly always wanted to work from home. I enjoy working at my pace without the distraction of other people.

That is not to say that I don’t like working with people I just have my preferences.

Anyway…

I enjoyed waking up early and working in my home office in silence. Not hearing the music from the cube next to me, or other office distractions.

I was able to get my focus back. I have slowly been losing it over the past few months. With new job requirements and all.

In my opinion I was more productive this week. Not only at work related activities, but also with my personal coding and work around the house.

I did lose the hour long commute each way so I gained 10 hours this week .

I hope I can carry my new found focus back into the workplace.

‘Till next time
