Last night I barely got any sleep. I stayed up all night trying to plan out this week because there is a lot going on right now. Between moving, managing repairs, and preparing multiple properties, it feels like my entire schedule is packed from sunrise to sunset. The condo we are currently in needs to … Read more
Today I went back to my Apopka rental to finish up work on the door. The contractor completed the installation, but I told him I’d take care of the priming and painting on the drywall another time. There’s still a lot that needs to be done in that house, so I’ll have to make another … Read more

They’re just finishing up restoring everything to … Read more
Today was a calm and enjoyable Sunday. My wife, baby, and I went to downtown Sanford for a small festival they were hosting. The streets were lined with vendors, food trucks, and live music playing in the background. It felt good to get outside, grab some food, and walk around for a bit. My best … Read more
