expense tracking – From The Bach Row

Working On Few Other Things

Thanks for checking in.
I’m sure you’ve been wondering when the blog is going to see a fresh piece.

I’ve been focused a bit on the back end of the website and keeping up with some of the routine maintenance of running a blog. This also includes keeping the site secure. My coding skills are not very impressive except for the fact that these things take me four times longer.

I also have a few other things that have me preoccupied at the moment. If you follow me on Twitter, you might be able to put a puzzle piece together.

In the meantime, there is an archive of helpful articles to keep you entertained. The archives are set up to be your resource and the search box will help you get to the topic faster. Give it a try.

Start today. Your future self will thank you.

I’ll be Bach Soon.
