Happy New Year!

My blog did not end the year strong. I was working way to much after I got laid off to even think about writing. That's a odd statement. Let me explain. I started a contract job the day after my last day at Polkinghorn Group Architects. Naturally the firm that needed me for contract was behind or they wouldn't have brought me on. So it was heavy hours for about six weeks. Then we were into the holidays and I could never get back to writing.

Here we are on day one of 2013 though. I'm going to go for it again and try to write a blog a week. Most likely I wont' make it. After all I have two kids, a wife, and a fledgling business to run. But I enjoy my blogs so I am going to try.

Looking back on 2012 it was not a great success as far as my new year's resolutions are concerned. I failed to get off the ground on most of them. I am not going to beat myself up though. Life is hard and sometimes just surviving is success enough. After the last three years we've had financially, raising a boy from 0 to 2, and all the other trouble life can throw at you the fact that we're still here swinging is pretty good. Surviving is not enough though so I will stand up, dust myself off, and try again.

Hello 2013. I'm really excited to see what you bring.

Happy New Year Everybody!
