The Daily Grind

For the past couple of weeks, whenever anyone has asked about how things are going with the new venture, the word that immediately pops out is, “busy!” We have just over a week until public launch, and the list of things that need to be done beforehand is still pretty daunting.

On the other hand, we are getting quite a bit of work done. On days when I’m not still contracting at Biz360, I’ve settled into a regular routine which is actually pretty simple:

7:00am: wake up, eat breakfast, get our son to school
9:00am: work
12:00pm: lunch
12:30pm: back to work!
5:30pm: family time - get the kids fed, bathed, put to bed
8:00pm: more work
3:00am: hit the sack

When you add it up, there’s roughly 15 hours of working time, 5 hours of family/meal time, and 4 hours of sleep. I’d like to be able to spend more time with the kids, and the lack of regular workouts is starting to take its toll, but we keep telling ourselves that it’s a temporary push. Things will lighten up a *little* once we get past the launch milestone … right?

And of course, the great thing about the work is that it’s not a grind at all. We’re working out of our home, building a fun application, and collecting feedback and ideas from an active group of users. The fact that it’s all about sports is icing on the cake–I just hope I can get back to watching an occasional game at some point.
