It is paying off now though as the checks are starting to come in.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>I have been working pretty consistantly in my downtime from work.  It has mostly revolved around the setup of a server for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.studio11.com\">Studio11 Productions<\/a>.  They have had some very <strong>specific<\/strong> requirements for the software that is on said new server and it has been something of a pain to get it all working.<\/p>\n<p>Actually, it isn&#8217;t all working yet.  I still have one piece that is really driving me batty.<\/p>\n<p>I also did a rebuild of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.walther.org\">Walther Cancer Foundations<\/a> website development server.  That one was a lot quicker than the Studio11 build, but it still had its moments.<\/p>\n<p>Overall the last couple weeks have been a stressful one as I have been trying to put together random pieces of stuff so that it makes a functional server and it hasn&#8217;t been all that fun.<\/p>\n<p>I did spend one check from the work to get a projector though and I really like it.  I got the  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.geeks.com\/details.asp?invtid=SP4800-R\">InFocus ScreenPlay 4800 Digital Light Projector<\/a> from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.geeks.com\">Computergeeks<\/a>.  It works really well and at the price that you can get it from Geeks for, it might be what some of you are looking for.<\/p>\n<p>I think with the other money that is coming in from the work I am going to double up on what we have been paying on the house.  Hopefully, it will help bring the interest down a little and make more money go to the principal.  We have been paying about $250 extra every month as it is, so hopefully that extra couple shots will have some effect too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Talking about some of the work I have been doing for Pico Computing (my consulting company) and what I have been doing with the profits. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brentnorris.net\/blog\/archives\/17\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[168,77,160],"class_list":["post-17","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-geek","tag-house","tag-house-payment","tag-pico"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.brentnorris.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.brentnorris.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.brentnorris.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.brentnorris.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.brentnorris.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.brentnorris.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.brentnorris.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.brentnorris.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.brentnorris.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
