I have pulled the plug on Rubyyot.com, the task management site. It was an enjoyable learning experience, but I was no longer using it and I don’t think anyone else was either. I’ve removed it to make way for new development projects. That is if I can ever concentrate enough on any one of my projects to actually complete it.

Tuesday, March 31st, 2009Introspection – March 2009
Tuesday, March 3rd, 2009Following up last month’s big victory over smoking, this month’s strategy was more fortify and persist than big victory. Without further ado, here is my current progress.
- Spend more family time - Improved, but not where I want it to be.
- Quit smoking - Still smoke free, with with only a few temptations. /li>
- Continue learning in Ruby and .NET – I didn’t do much with Ruby in this past month, however on the .NET side of things I put a Monorail site into production. This was exciting and I used a number of great tools along the way including ReSharper (I finally caved), Windsor and RhinoMocks.
- Learn Ioke – I’m losing ground on this one, need to make a push forward on this soon to meet this goal.
- Exercise frequently – I’m out walking more sometimes taking a few short trips a day to stores, etc.
- Stop trying to organize, and start simplifying – Picking back up on this finally, I’ve collected the best desktop bits of the two computers I had lying around and combined them into 1 fast, dinosaur of a Linux box for the kids.
- Become financially stable – I paid off a largish debt and continued to grow my emergency fund. So I’m doing pretty well here so far this year.
- Teach – No progress here.
- Enjoy the journey- My biggest failure this month. I’m really not loving the journey. Not sure what has got me feeling this way, but I’m hoping that I’ll be shaking this off as Spring comes around.
