Succinct Summation of Week’s Events 10.14.16

Still using the laptop even though I took delivery of the final missing components of my new supercharged desktop over a week ago.  But alas I leave Friday for a long overdue 2 week vacation to NYC and Philly and, since I'll need the Internet connection from the laptop when I'm on the road, there's no point in transferring my browser and email folders to the new computer for just one week, so I'll continue suffering with this laptop until my return around November 2nd.  It's possible I won't be to do my next post until after the return.

Succinct Summations of Weeks Events 10.7.16

Saturday night saw the premiere of my latest video to celebrate the 75th anniversary of my church in Orchard Lake and, after many long hours over a period of nine months in planning, production, and editing, it was the last of the outstanding items on my plate and the last video I'll be producing for some time as I now immerse in the CFP.  The next CFP event is the annual Michigan symposium in Novi October 18-19.

Summation for week-ending 9-30-16

It's been quite a week on my personal projects. The 2nd CFP class which was due to begin Tuesday night October 4th has been canceled, so I have more time now to plan my 12 year overdue vacation, for which I will likely leave right after attending the Michigan Financial Planning Conference to be held October 18th.  Meanwhile, I've had very good news with my book, having just received news that I placed in the top 6 percent in my first literary competition in Los Angeles, top 1% for originality.  I'm thinking there's a chance I might even do well enough to land an agent and sell the thing.  Meanwhile, I'm busy wrapping up a nine-month project finishing a video this week for the 75th anniversary celebration of my church this Saturday evening.  With any luck, with the other good things that are happening in my life right now, I won't have much time to do any more videos for a while.  My new computer is in and, as soon as the festivities are over on Saturday, I come home and set it up.  In the next week or two I'm hoping this daily blog will be back online again after over a two month absence.
