Where Have I Been?

Yeah, it’s been three weeks since I last wrote a post here. Several weeks ago I began thinking I needed to hop off the Web site ride and spend some more time with the family. I had been coming home from work, eating dinner with the family, and then going right up to my home office and working on blog posts or t-shirts or marketing or any of a hundred other things that need to be done to work this web business. I had been letting home and family kind of go unattended for a long time. It was for a good reason: to get this “second job” to a point where it could be my one and main job, a stay at home job. But I was missing out at home, and home was missing out on me.

I started slacking of the web site work. And then a few weeks ago I just kind of let it go completely for a while. By letting this web part of my life go slack, I was able to come home from work, eat dinner with the family, help with homework, help with house chores, spend more time with Wifegrit, Calfgrit11, and Calfgrit8 as a family or individually. I really like this way better. It means the web site gets updated less, and new t-shirt designs come less frequent, and marketing falls weak, but I’m really enjoying this more time with my family. I need it, and they need me.

So, for the foreseeable future, my posting and new t-shirts will be on the back burner, to get done when I have the free time. Maybe I’ll post once or twice a week. Maybe I’ll get a new t-shirt out once a month. I’m okay with this. I hope you will be too.
