Weekly Roundup - September 6, 2014


This past week was trying to say the least.  Nothing much to report on the financial/investing front but lots of things changed with Lucas, our son set to join us in late December.  We haven't updated the BabyLukeBlog.wordpress.com site yet for this week but hopefully we'll get the chance to do so this weekend.  Ever since finding out that my wife was pregnant I've felt my priorities shift a bit and even more so after finding out there were complications that our little boy will face.  I don't expect anything to change too drastically in the next 6 months to a year, but after that there might be a job change on the horizon.

This weekend should be a pretty fun one.  Today our plan is to go meet up with some friends that have a lake house a few hours from here and spend the day out on the lake, bbq-ing, and having a good time with some friends.  Sunday is looking like we'll head back home kind of early but that's just so we can get back to civilization and watch some long-awaited NFL games.  It's the first full weekend of games and I'm quite excited.  Football is by far my favorite sport to watch on tv and even better when you can watch the games with friends.  And that's exactly our plan.  My wife and I are both looking forward to a relaxing weekend to kind of clear our heads from the whirlwind that the last month has been.  Unfortunately it's looking like Monday will bring another drive back to work but honestly I'm looking forward to that as well to get back into a normal routine.  Anyone else have some really kickass plans for this weekend?

The first roundup of the 2nd half of the year.  I still can't believe that 2013 is over halfway over.  This past week was pretty good.  It was relatively easy at work with pretty much 3 days of doing nothing.  Unfortunately that meant staying...

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...

I can't believe that another week and month have come and gone.  Last weekend I had a great time with my wife and friends as we headed up to one of their lake houses and got to go have a great time relaxing.  And it didn't hurt that we got to...

Thanks to everyone that mentioned Passive Income Pursuit this past week.  I truly appreciate it and couldn't get the word out about DIY dividend growth investing or grow the blog without you. I didn't get a chance to compile some links for...
