When you stop to think about it, true friends are like family without the commitment to obligation to see them on holidays, birthdays, etc. Family is mentally and physically draining for many reasons, many of which lead back to the fact that they remember how you used to be and have difficulty understanding why you … Continue reading True Friends Might As Well Be Big Foot
You know it's been a long time since you last wrote when you go to log onto your account and need to reset your password.... Writing has been furthest from my mind that last several months as I hit a stage of burn out. I just didn't have the motivation to sit down and write … Continue reading The 0’s and 1’s Getting Thinner
There's something to be said about being so busy that you forget what it is that makes you relax when in fact, you have the ability to sit down. My mistake for thinking that once the holidays were over, there would be more time to get back to some of the activities that keep me … Continue reading Never enough time
So, I've been busy with the design of the site lately. Doing a few things here, a few things there. Although I'm never quite satisfied with static pages, I am at the point where the overall theme and design are going to remain largely unchanged. I'm sure there will be additions of new features and … Continue reading Spiffing Up The Joint
I've reached an age where I can objectively handle pretty much anything. This gives me an ability to let most things just pass without much thought. Such as someone getting mad over a decision that gets made, getting passed over for a promotion or something as simple as negative perceptions.

Welcome! If you're reading this, you already know that I've migrated to a self-hosted provider. It's surprising at how powerful the WordPress application is once you get away from WordPress.com. The old w1nt3l.com blog will be up for a few months, but at some point I will cancel it and get a pro-rated refund. Not … Continue reading Welcome to my new home
You would think that with all the advances in technology and software that things would have become easier. Windows 10 and other operating systems have taken a lot of the guesswork out of figuring things out for yourself. Even with that convenience and efficiency, there are still things that are more complicated than they really … Continue reading Dealing with technology still a PITA
This is the first major storm that I've experienced where I've had a direct connection to victims that I know personally. I don't have the experience to even start to imagine what they're going through right now on the ground in Texas, Houston especially. The videos, pictures, first hand accounts and emotional posts to Twitter … Continue reading The 1 in 500 years storm
I want to start off by apologizing to all that follow me for my lack of activity the last few months. Life has been rather hectic this summer so far and there isn't any reprieve for me in the near future based on what I know is coming. Sticking to a writing schedule has been … Continue reading Nothing stays the same
The last time I posted something was May 22nd and all my plans to stick to a schedule got thrown out the window. Work reared its ugly head and has been kicking my ass for the last several weeks with little reprieve or consideration for my personal time. Getting home after working since 5:30am meant … Continue reading Work – 1 / Life – 0
