a setback, but still I persist...

Well, the last 10 days have been a struggle... mostly around house stuff which included the AC going out, an attic pipe leak which caused significant water damage, an outlet burning out taking out power to half of the second floor, and a bunch of storage unit issues... all adding to about 11k in unexpected expenses. :(

It is mostly resolved and it has resulted in a long over due spring cleaning... so that's good.

Right before all that mess began, I had decided to focus my side project dev time on 2 main projects.  One software and one game... more on those as soon as I have something to show... but I have been slowly making progress on one of them even with the interruptions.

6 months down... 6 to go.

I decided to split the yearly goals into 2 chunks that felt more meaningful.  6 months is enough time to accomplish decent sized goals, but not so long that you can put this off till the end of the year.  My birthday is July 5th which is a little past the 6month mark, but a birthday is a meaningful moment in a life.

How did I do with birthday goals?

It's a mixed bag. I gave myself a score of 50 out of 100. 

In the life category, on the positive side, I am averaging 10,900 steps a day for the year so far and I have increased my time asleep on average by almost 30 mins... Not close to the goal, but improvement. On weight loss, I put on weight and it wasn't muscle... and I did not meaningfully increase my income, although I did review my finances and cancelled some subscriptions which meant keeping more of our earnings.

I did not take a Python class like I wanted to, but I did spend a lot more time writing/working with Python... so I gave myself a partial.

We didn't leave the state, but we were able to get away and have a couple adventures. :)

I logged 2 projects under the "Create" category, but frankly I made over a dozen... This has been where my focus has been this year... and I am kicking ass! :)

We went to a few new restaurants, but half as many as I wanted to...

So, I am making some adjustments for the second half of the year.

I am shifting my focus away from tracking weight and towards tracking calories.... I have never been a fan, but weight tracking is downstream from the problem of me eating too many calories.  

I have been building a bunch of side projects but few had any meaningful revenue plan.  This is going to change...while I still leave myself time for fun side projects.

I just finished a great marketing book.... I am going to reread it and 3 others to into the mindset of promoting products.
