Getting Edumacated

I’m not an educated man, at least not in the traditional sense- I did finish high school, not quite barely, but certainly not as valedictorian. I wasn’t even on the honor roll. Not because I’m not smart enough, but more because school bored the snot out of me. I could write a book about whyContinue reading “Getting Edumacated”

Toilet Paper Rolls

One of the first questions that I was asked to think about was what is one of the biggest stumbling blocks you are running into in your business. After thinking for a few minutes, I wrote down “Toilet Paper Rolls.”

1st Trimester Is Almost Done… Thoughts on 2019 so far

It’s been a busy year for me. And I mean busy. I’m not usually the one that feels busy- I have time to call people, take time to recreate (a little, anyway) and really be ok with the world. But 2019 has just felt busy, and it’s not a feeling I particularly like. I feelContinue reading “1st Trimester Is Almost Done… Thoughts on 2019 so far”

On Killing and On Combat- Book Reviews

On the advice of a friend, I recently read the books On Killing and On Combat by Lieutenant Colonel David Grossman. He recommended the books to me as we talked about the responsibilities of gun ownership and what self defense means. As we both carry guns on our person on a regular basis, he recommendedContinue reading “On Killing and On Combat- Book Reviews”

Just a Little Off

My wife and I like to improve things- we are constantly working to change things and make them better. We have become pros at tearing our houses apart, to put them back together in a better, more beautiful (hopefully) and useful way. Our last house was a small 2 bedroom, 1 bath house. We turnedContinue reading “Just a Little Off”

Early Morning Temple Pictures

I’ve been finally getting up at a decent hour, and used my extra time the other day taking pictures of the Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Meridian, Idaho.  I’ve spent a lot of time in this building, and it has always been amazing to look at it. IContinue reading “Early Morning Temple Pictures”

Hired to Serve

Ah, the holidays! This is what we in the carpet cleaning world call “busy season.” And it is! We have been running full steam for the last several weeks, and that is a great feeling. It does come with some stresses though. On Wednesday, one of my technicians sent me some pictures and was reallyContinue reading “Hired to Serve”

Scammer Attack!

In addition to being incredibly busy the last few weeks, I’ve been feeling under attack from persons unknown. It started a few weeks ago, when, out of the blue, I got a call from… myself. Not knowing what was going on, I answered the call, and was told that my phone account was suspended, andContinue reading “Scammer Attack!”

For accuracy

There is a meme going around right now that looks like this: What George Washington actually said was: “A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite; and their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to renderContinue reading “For accuracy”
