I spent time today investing in myself. Reworked my website so that it's to the point. Also added some additional services I'm offering, such as consulting and renting. Take a look and share it far and wide.

- Hey y'all. I got some great news. I am no longer unemployed. I signed a job offer today. The role was created with my talents in mind. I'll be leveraging my skills and relationships in this role in the WordPress space. I'm excited and looking forward to jumping in head first.
- Wellp, that's a wrap. Email gone, access revoked, social accounts transferred over. I'm outside the Tavern in the parking lot looking back at what I created, sold, and now leave after 10 years. 👋

- I’m concerned by how this will potentially impact everyone's ability to sell/pitch WordPress and VIP to clients. I doubt any of us wants to be in a situation where we have to explain what’s going on to a potential client. Any suggestions on how to go about this?
- Wellp, been off the booze for about a month and a half, closer to two months. Drastically reduced my intake of soda as well. I'm down 35 pounds, sleeping better, and spending more time being alive than a zombie stuck in bed. Most of all, I'm back to being my wife's teammate.
