So it’s been a little bit over a month since I last posted, and a LOT has gone on. Let’s get right into it all.
After we sold, we had moved [basically our entire house of stuff] into an informal rental (informal as in a place a family member had available we could use), but we had to turn around within 2 months of moving in and move out due to some misunderstandings from both sides on financials that would hurt our much needed budgeting for the new house. All good, though, we got storage for all of our stuff, and our cousins are gracious hosts letting us stay with them during our build.
Whew. Danielle and I are mentally exhausted from the seemingly non-stop work really since last November when everything started, but more so the last few months. We’ve been going, going, and going, but at least we can slow the brakes a little and rest a bit easier for a little while now. Yay!
On top of all the chaos of selling, moving, buying (land) and building, I’m still in school. My worst and least favorite subject on the entire planet … no, in the entire cosmos is math. It was inevitable that I’d have to take two maths, but way back starting out at Phx I wasn’t aware nor prepared both classes would be back to back. There are pros and cons to this. Con: you’re stuck with math for 10 weeks straight… Pro: get math done in 10 weeks and concepts from one class are fresh for the one right after. I had been dreading the math classes ever since I knew they’d arrive, but now one of them is already over and I’m 2/5 of the way through the second one. I was thankful I passed the first one and I pray I pass this one, too. Harder to come IT classes will surely have their challenges, but I speak computer … not math. So that’ll be a huge lot of academic stress out of my way when the final math class is done here in a few weeks.
Since everyone is stuck at home during the Corona/Covid pandemic, recent studies have shown that video gaming has skyrocketed. You don’t need anything but common sense to know this. Still, gaming is one of my favorite pastimes (and currently my only one). I was a Sony PlayStation fan when I was younger and have been a Microsoft Xbox fan since I was a teenager. Without going through essentially a book on my gaming history, suffice to say I’ve experienced and understand both companies and their offerings. I just like Xbox more. So, I jump on lots of opportunities when I can. Plus, with technology as a passion of mine, it was a no-brainer when I got a chance to participate in Microsoft’s beta for xCloud, which was their mobile phone game streaming technology. It was fun and pretty cool to use regular 4G cell service to play high-quality games. Since it is out of beta now and part of their new subscription offerings, I got a cool emblem for being a beta user. That’s all I really wanted to make this whole section about (hahaha).
I was also able to secure an Xbox Series X earlier this week during the madness for pre-orders of the next-gen consoles coming out. Future-proofing is good to go.
If you haven’t noticed yet, I set in place the official changeover from andrewcoody.com to andrew.coody.co. While selling, moving and Corona/Covid put a wrench in my videos for the Coody Connection YouTube project I started, I do like the different website name and merging my personal site in with the YouTube business site. It’s smoother to refer to so that my blog and personal site have moved here permanently along with the business site (just remember: it’s .co not .com!)
Well, I think that about wraps up this post. It is not as linear as most of my posts usually are, but sometimes a jump around of topics is all you’re gonna get when my mind and life are all over the place. 🙂
Until next time,
Andrew
