Well it was time to head back to work again. This time in sunny southeastern New Mexico. It was a fun 11.5 hour drive from my house in Houston to near Carlsbad but luckily I didn't have to drive it straight through. They paid for a travel day so I knocked out about 9 hours of the drive on the first day and then rest the next day so it was an easy drive. It's definitely not something I'm looking forward to doing again but if I want to get home again it'll have to be done. Luckily this job should only be about a week long and if it works out right, then I'm going to have my wife meet me somewhere in central Texas so we can go camping over next weekend. It'll be great to get to spend some one on one time with her out in nature.
Thanks to everyone that mentioned Passive-Income-Pursuit this past week. I truly appreciate it and couldn't help spread the word about DIY dividend growth investing without your help. I also started reading The Single Best Investment by Lowell Miller and I do have to say it's a very easy read so far. Much easier than The Intelligent Investor and I would consider both required reading for anyone that is serious about investing in individual stocks on their own.

Unfortunately I had to head back to work last Friday so I didn't get the weekend at home, but around 2.5 weeks was still nice to have so I can't really complain. It was a long drive to get back out to work and it was even worse because it was...

Where has the first 3 months of this year gone? Seems like just yesterday I was having to get used to writing 2013 instead of 2012 and now one quarter of the year is almost done. This past week was pretty good. Work went really smooth although I...
