Winter Is Here...Now What Do I Do?

It is the same every year. Around late September, everyone is just about fed up with the warm weather. We complain to whoever is listening. All we want is some cooler weather. Then it comes and nobody is ready for it. We all want to know what happened to Fall. Nobody is happy.

So since we can't avoid the cold weather, we must prepare for it as best we can. This is a link to a great article on "Winterizing" your home.

By being proactive and protecting your house now, you will save a lot of money in the long run.

Wow...It Has Been Awhile

Blogging is no easy task for me. It falls right in with using chopsticks, braiding my seven year-old daughter's hair and staining the deck. These are not impossible tasks, just not something that I look forward to doing on a daily or even weekly basis.

I always approached this blog as something that I was providing for others - some deep insight or some light hearted humor to start a morning. But the reality is that this blog is for me. This blog is for my company, and this blog is for my employees. After spending three days at an industry conference last week, the importance of a weekly blog was conveyed multiple times over the course of the three days. Google (the ultimate judge in the overall rating of your website) tells us of the importance of a blog. So get ready...

We will do it all here. Technical education, money saving tips, life of a service tech, etc., maybe even how to use chopsticks. See you next week.
