It’s been a busy & stressful quarter so far, and not in the good (dollars, baby!) way yet. I’ve been a bit anxious about stuff but having my townhouse sale appearing like everything will go through is starting to take some of the stress off. Unfortunately, I really don’t have any income yet to speak of, since none of the other properties have sold yet. Milwaukie Ave is the only one ready to sell and I’ve got high hopes for 14th.
I do have to say, sitting here in my new-old home office watching the traffic & people go by, that I’m much more happy back in town. Everything is much closer and it makes my job much easier because I drive around so much.
I’m also blessed to be in a location that has more than one open WiFi network that I can connect to for free, similar to the other place. If I every have to pay for my own cable or DSL, I will for sure share it with others too. Let’s hope I never have to pay though.
One thing that is pretty hard on me is that I could easily be making more moolah by ramping up the consulting business. There’s lots of work to be had out there but we’ve decided to put that on the back burner. We’re still servicing our existing customers with Jimmy-on-the-spot attitude but reluctant to pull in new clients. The problem is, if our primary desire (real estate) picks up like we’re projecting it to, then we might have to ramp down the consulting and I really don’t like to promise or sell a service that may start to be phased out - that’s just not right. The hard part is turning away a relatively easy short-term solution to focus on a more uncertain but more desirable long-term goal. Especially when cash is getting low.
I also wouldn’t mind a couple links from people to my new sites so I can get a bit more search engine activity and maybe another $1/day from Adsense. Here’s the sites that I’ve been working on: Seafood Recipes & News at SeafoodBlog.org and Rally News, Guerilla style at RallyBlogs.com
