Intro: Dig this here: I thought the tone of the blog was going to be as I envisioned like the following: #RRR (Relax, Read and Reflect) for the start of January to trickle down into now, but Life in the ways of dealing with deadline delays, personal and family events, ways to improve for this year and beyond repeatedly kept delaying my obligation with my supporters so let me try to summarize what I’ve been through the last several months:

 

October: I did some poking around on my flash drive to probe my past saved free pictures before the New Year started to gather ideas on a new concept to write towards and I finally found it!

 

November: Randomly while on a date I was directed to the app Thumbtack to find local businesses to help me out professionally and personally. That’s an excellent score to which I’ll explain later. Back home in Boston the second part of my high school reunion was kind of a letdown in terms of the numerical turnout considering how great the first part of our gathering came together, but I still reconnected with some people that I haven’t seen in quite a while. We met fellow throwback alumni, captured some memories and kept it moving. Lastly my brothers and I had an awesome Sunday brunch at The Island Creek Oyster Bar on Newbury Street and chopped up some critical family business.

 

December: When not fighting to free time away from work, I desperately found time to consolidate my 2018 and 2019 old organizers into my new 2020 organizer. It was and is still a long process. Also my brother and my Cleveland family came up for family time and to attend our cousin’s funeral.

 

January: I lavishly celebrated the New Year in the city of Chicago with my brother after an unsuspecting smooth four hour drive to reach the destination. A new region and city were conquered as we enjoyed our stay downtown. Pretty dope. I also dug more into the rawartists.com website for local artists. Man, let me tell you: The future is in great hands with the upcoming young generation having some boundless, untapped talent.

 

February: Still trying to recycle my #RRR (Relax, Read, and Reflect) motto for my time away from work. →  Stay tuned.

 

Just sensing and experiencing fatigue because the stop and start routine with my projects have taken a toll on me so maybe I need more time to plan out things in my favor which may mean taking a little longer to drop my next entry. Not exactly five months until the next but I don’t want to feel rushed or unfulfilled. I’m getting older and while I’m not trying to feel sorry for myself, I want to plan out some more breathing room and find someone I can defer to with my minor duties while I work on my art.

 

The Entrepreneurial Push: After this blog I’ll still be working on my poem and attempting to reach closure before my birthday in April. My freelance artist is experiencing some unexpected health issues so while he works on getting back to full health I’ll be using the Thumbtack app again to research a small business marketing type with a personal assistant niche.

Outside of box thought: Could Pinterest be a welcomed social media addition in lockstep towards my next marketing push?

 

Man Law #163 – The debut of Mr. Rom Wills: Many young women are going for older men. Feel free to click the link. If your masculinity, cordiality, attitude, and economics are on the rise or daresay even minimal, those younger Tender Ronis may be peeping you out to make an unsuspecting move on you. I recommend for you to keep stacking your assets and enhance your communication skills to widen your better choice of opposite mate.

 

Before I dip out:

To the sloppy criminals that broke into not only my house but my neighbor’s house as well to come up with close to nothing, I quote Jay Z:

‘You only get half a bar, F%*k ya’ll N?$$@z’ (Takeover)

My mind is in a frenzy so I don’t know when or how I’ll find the time to kick out my next installment, just know I’m working and strategizing my permanent exit plan from ever working a job again. Some recent signs have emerged to self-motivate me when I feel overburdened or maybe I can’t quite reach my own standards.

Rest in peace Kojo Calhoun,
