So it is one week after I decided to change how a typical Monday goes, and I do have to admit, no day since then has been the same. This morning was filled with me taking my daughters to the dentist, because one of them was getting a couple teeth pulled. After that, we came home and rested, she was in way too much pain to go back to school I felt. Well, I shouldn't say that we rested, the girls did...

Kudos idea - revision 1

Today I am revising an Idea I had posted on Google+. The reason for this revision is to make it simpler and easier to get off the ground. But to fill in those that haven't heard my Kudos site idea, here it is:
"Ok, New idea for today is... wait for it... myKudos, a web app that has two main categories,...

Turning lemons into lemonade
The reason I did not post anything on the 25th was because it was my day off and I resigned from my job. I had been there almost two years, helped out in many ways, and never had a single complaint. It was no longer a challenge for me anyway. I can't go into any details without having lawyers knocking at my door, but I can say that I enjoyed the experience.

So I have been working on getting a new business card design put together, and I took a different road this time. Instead of starting with the usual PS, or Paint.NET, I started with Cinema 4D, and made my design into a model. This 3D Model can now be made in a 3D Printer. Now the benefit to this is...

Web site adventure
So I have been tooling with an idea for a while to get a web site up and running. This website idea has plenty of potential, and would not cost that much to start it on my own. I could build it myself, using what limited knowledge I have of HTML, Java and ASP to do it, but I am not confident that my skills would do the idea justice, and I want this to be capable of success as soon as it hits the ground.
I...

Outside of the box confirmation
So I was browsing the web, looking for some more Augmented Reality designs when I came across this page: http://jobmob.co.il/blog/augmented-reality-business-card-designs/ And there it was, number 7), I had done this years ago as a test for some of the new AR tools hitting the market. Who would have thought that my foul attempt would make it to a list like this :)
So maybe I will start...
Not just another Monday
So today is just another typical monday, but I am refusing to let it be typical. Today's plan is to do everything a little bit differently so my normal routine is put off. This should force a bit of a creative spark if I do it right.
Now I don't normally work on music this early in the week, but today I did, and I started with Jazz. Came up with a few basic chords and rifts, just have to get the harmonics...

I'm planning on starting my schedule change this upcoming week, which means that I will have worked a bit more than I am used to before I get a day off. So I am taking my time relaxing before I log into work tonight.
I hope to start work on one if my website ideas next week, still have to price out a hosting service that will work well for it. I've already decided to use a version of community builder...

So I have been working a bit more on my Google+ widget for iOS. Right now I am using it inside Dreamboard and it is very usable. Sometimes though, the frame likes to use the screen size instead of the window size, but I will figure it out. I think it is not too shabby for only spending 20 minutes...

Dusting off the resume
So I have been working as a team lead in technical support for a while now, and after getting this far already, I realize that this is not where I want to be in life. So I am once again passing out my resume to see what is available out there. I would love to find something in design or sound engineering but I will probably take something else it it comes along first. I can do art and modeling for...
