It's hot as Hades and it's fried my brain!

Another sweltering day in the Florida's Capital City and I think it's fried my brain!

Mondays are always tough on me, but today was kinda hard getting into the groove of things. However, by the end of the day, I somehow formalized to add more on my plate in this great buffet of life.

I'm taking more stuff on at work... looks like I'll be leading some volunteer coordination within the foundation. It's something I'm looking forward to do doing, since that's my field of expertise and what I love doing most. Of course, this is in addition to the program I work on now... mitigation.

Anyway, tonight was the annual meeting of my homeowners' association and I got nominated to serve on the Board of Directors. I guess it's because I showed up at 100% of the meetings held since I bought my house (that'd be two meetings, if you're keeping count) and was the only one present outside the board members themselves. I heard there wasn't much to it anyway, but it's giving me insight into how the real estate management works. I'm the only one on the board who doesn't live in the neighborhood... most of the units are rental investments, which I'm aiming to convert this into in a couple of years. I'm learning a little about property management from the other board members in our casual conversations during meetings.

I'm building momentum in my desire to update this journal, so expect more this week!
