Guild Shoot - Final Week

Today is the beginning of the final week of shooting for The Guild season three. This was our last day of shooting at Felicia Day's house. It was a long but fun day and I got some really good behind the scenes footage. We have location shots for the next four shoot days.

I'm actually playing hooky from work all week to shoot BTS for The Guild.. actually I asked for the time off and my work was nice enough to say... wait a minute.. they never said yes.. but then again they never said no.

More Cleaning... well kind of

Yesterday was the beginning of our major "spring cleaning". I spent all day long cleaning out some of the garage, while Harry spent the day packing up and categorizing all of our assets. I did pretty good at getting rid of some stuff.. but some of it was tough to part with and I still think I keep to much and may have to go through the stuff again.

Today we were suppose to do more cleaning and we did but we mostly sat on the couch and relaxed. I did manage to get out of the house and do some much needed laundry. We were about three months behind. That is one thing I'm looking forward to with the new house.. having our very own washer and dryer. The place I go is okay but it seems every time I come back home there are a few bleach marks on some shirts or sheets. This time around I think I packed the washer to much and when some of the shirts were done they had dirt and soap marks on them. I have to do re-do about three loads before everything was clean.

And when putting the basket into the jeep I pulled a shoulder muscle.. man getting old sucks..

Spring Clean!!!

I know it's not spring but this is the first weekend I have had off where I don't have to visit family, work on the Guild or record a podcast. So Harry and I decided that we would start to clean out the house of all the crap that doesn't need to be moved to our new place. It's amazing the stuff that had accumulated over the past two years but also the stuff that we have moved from place to place and still have never used it or have taken it out. So this is going to be a purge. I am somewhat of a pack rat so hopefully I'll be able to find a way to part with some of these items that I have had for year.

Happy 4th of July

I want to wish all my fellow American's a very Happy Fourth of July

Pay Check Confusion

Here was the issued.. my current pay stub had an amount in the YTD section that did not equal up to my week income. It was off about $15,000 for the year. Well I finally figured out problem, I remember back in February that we had to fill out start up paperwork again but nothing ever came of it.. then Harry was looking at old pay stubs and noticed that it went from INC to LLC and when they did they started over again with the YTD total. So that explains the discrepancies. Now I just have to write a letter to my lender explaining this.. glad it was an easy fix.

KOTG Goodies

Today I got a bunch of very cool Knights of the Guild promotional stuff from Vista Prints. They were having a huge sale and giving away a ton of things. So I purchased 25 t-shirts and got for free some magnets, postcards, flyers, business cards, lawn sign, 3ft banner and a few other cool things. It totaled about $400.00 and I got it for $165.00. Not bad and the stuff looks pretty sweet. Will be giving most of it away at San Diego Comic Con to help promote our podcast.

House Buying 101

Still in the middle of escrow, should be closing by the end of the month. Just when I thought I was making progress I get something from my lender questioning my employment the past two years and my current pay stub not matching what I say I earn. Also they need a gift form filled out for the money that we transferred from Harry's Austrian account.

I now have to investigate on why the information on my pay stub is incorrect and I have to write a letter to my explaining my last two years of employment.. the easiest part is getting Harry to fill out the Gift form, which is stupid because BofA handled of entire thing and has all the info but they require us to fill out this form.

One step forward... two steps back...

One Month Old

Today my nephew turns 1 month.. still isn't due for another 17 days.. but he is doing great. He's gaining weight and getting stronger everyday. Was so happy to be able to visit him last weekend.

Happy 1 Month Kenobi
