What Keeps me Busy

Blogging

I'm working on a few different blogs at the moment. It's something I've never done before. Currently I'm deciding which topics to focus on and platforms to use.

Writing

I've always admired novel writers. Writers are creators, and their process intrigues me. The character development, mood setting, world building, all of it is so interesting. I'm interested in writing both short stories and a novel or two. I've staretd some work, but never finished. Let me know if you have tips to share. It would be good to hear them.

Local Travel

We get so excited about places far away that we often miss what is right in front of us. Appreciating where we are and exploring our own home is something I really want to do more of.

Leather crafting

I love working on small-craft, handmade leather goods. I make belts, wallets, card holders, watch straps, and more. All by hand. And I love it. There is a satisfaction in building something with your hands. Especially when it is something that will last. I am currently building an Etsy store. I will post it here on this site when I am finished.


Projects

VBA Lives - Blog

VBA Lives is a blog written for the non-programmer to give a broad and well-ordered overview of VBA in the form of tutorials. There will also be blog posts that supplement the tutorials with code samples, as well as general musings on topics related to Excel, Access, and VBA in general. VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) is a scripting language within Microsoft Office applications, such as Excel and Access, that can be used for automation, web scraping, quality control, and productivity gains. Check out the blog regularly for tutorials, updates, and fun code samples!!
