Blog Home

Welcome! All posts are original ideas, information I have found valuable, or items I taught myself over the years. I am mostly self educated and the blog articles reflect that.

In that same spirit, you should take everything you see on this site with a grain of salt and do your own due diligence.

Thanks for visiting.
