Fall is Here

Fall is slowly coming and I love it. Cool weather at night to crisp fall mornings…..So wanting the leaves to change, so I can take a trip into the mountains to capture video and photos of the leaves. Love this time of year. Work has been crazy for me lately as well and I’ve been working non-stop along with pulling all-nighters. Working on a lot of personal projects to a few freelance projects as well. Love being busy like that though. I’ve started back writing over at my Lockergnome blog and hopefully I will be able to start doing a couple of tech articles every week. I hope to be bringing back my podcast again too. Lot’s going on in my world and I’m grateful for all the great opportunities too.

Save the Planet!

I’ve been a huge Environmentalist for a long time.   It all started when I joined  my high school environmental club in my freshman year. Ever since then  I’ve  been a member of local and national groups as well as taking part in events like Earth Day, and Earth Hour. I’m a huge recycler, carpool or use alt transportation( walk, skate, or bike)  when I can, use green products, using CFLs, conserving water and electricity, composting, and many other things  as well.

I love the fact that since living in the country we’re near a convenience & recycle center, which allows me  to recycle  about almost all of our garbage ( paper, glass, cans, plastic,cardboard, etc). Most of all the food ( left overs, peelings,  etc. ) goes into our  composter  than in the garbage can. Plus it reduces the chances of  never having a smelly garbage can again too. I also try to continue on with the idea that Earth Hour is by turning off all electronics,lights, etc. every night for the rest of the evening usually after dinner. I usually tend to use my laptop on battery to work and  watch a dvd  instead of watching tv. Most think I’m crazy, but I really enjoy working in the dark or using natural light than having to use artificial lighting  anyhow.

Crazy Busy!

Wow, it seems like I’ve been working non-stop these days and pulling all niters too. I have had a lot of projects coming in and that’s a good thing too.

I really enjoy my  work and getting to work with different types of clients too. I have one big project I’m hoping will come  my way. Would love the opportunity to work with this one group. I really enjoy giving back to the community.  I always feel privileged when I get to work with a group that is doing amazing things for the community or supporting a cause I really care about.

Other than work I have had a lot going on in my life too.  Like  finally getting another car, since my truck was totaled from the wreck. Since getting the car, it’s been a joy to be able to get out and about again.  Other than the car, I have had a lot of good things happening in my life, which is wonderful.  I’ve started back doing Yoga regularly, which is something I loved, but got out of doing it because with everything that happened. I’m still trying to get and about to ride my bike, hike, and walk every chance I get too. I’m also still  eating an all vegetarian diet, which has been a year and half now.  I have to say that I’m really sticking to my goals and it’s really paying off too.

I’m truly blessed to have all the great and  positive things that are happening in my life right now, after all the negative  things that has happened in the past two years. Plus I’m so grateful for great  friends that have become my extended family. It’s just truly amazing…..
