Welcome to my silly blog, where I share bits of my life. I own a house and an apartment building, I write about renovating those. I create WordPress plugins, sometimes I write about that. And I might share anecdotes and photos from my travels. Subscribe to the RSS feed and share my posts!

A day of dumb
This must be the dumbest most pointless day of the month. And it's not even my fault this time!
The rain season has started
Heavy rains in La Paz, Baja California Sur. I took some photos yesterday.
Fixing the water
I’m still working renovating my apartment building to make it livable. We’re slowing moving to an acceptable level.
I should probably move
Apartments 1 and 2 are almost done. Should we move in and cancel the house I rent now? Save on rent?
