This is my first Current Hard Work update since the end of January. It feels like a long time ago…
There’s been quite a bit going on around here lately, although much hasn’t been related to my current hard work list. (Honestly, some of it has been to the detriment of the list.)
I’ve been slacking the past few weeks on my commitment to post at least 3 times a week. I’ve been hanging out at 2 posts and that’s been ok. I think I’ll get back on the 3 post schedule soon enough, especially with the weather warming up, which gives me a little more inspiration.
I’ve been spending some time working on building a stuffed burger related website called Stuffed-Burger.com. Pretty creative, right? I’ve been consolidating recipe ideas and tips into a few lists. I’ll be adding video tutorials periodically. It is also a place to purchase the Stufz Ultimate Stuffed Burger System, which is also available in the BackyardLifeBlog.com Shop. I plan to eventually create a downloadable stuffed burger idea book once I have more of the tutorials created.
On a somewhat related note, I hit a personal goal the other day by getting above the $500 mark in revenue on Ebay in the last 60 days. I haven’t been there since 2004 or 2005 when I sold printing supplies and used printers. This is significant because the revenue generated from Ebay sales and from the BackyardLifeBlog.com Shop are what allow me to continue creating recipe tutorials and travelogue videos and photos. Ingredients and photo/video equipment can get pretty spendy, so every dollar helps!
I have also started working out in an effort to get in shape for softball season. I’m already seeing some results of the effort. I feel stronger and I’ve lost about 5 pounds. My appetite is also under control more than it has been. This is the first winter in a few years where I haven’t put on any weight. That is a win in my book. I just need to keep at it and who knows — I might be down to a reasonable weight with a healthy level of fitness. My clothes are already fitting better.
As you can see, there’s been a bunch going on, so I can accept my current hard work shortcomings of the past 6 weeks or so.
