Using WordPress As My Note Taking Tool
ByTim Nolte January 16, 2017July 1, 2019 Updated onJuly 1, 2019
So this past Sunday, in a continued effort to find my replacement note taking tool for Evernote, I decided to give my blog a try as a not taking tool. I have the Android app on my phone and tablet so that step made things fairly easy. For the most part things went very well, except I still don’t like the lack of Post Format editing support in the mobile app. I still had to switch over to the web to refine my final note the way I liked it to be. Did some Googling to see what other people’s experiences have been with trying this. Might have to give some of their suggestions a try as well. WordPress as a note taking tool Use…

Patience, Persistence, And Keeping On – Keeping On

“What’s the secret to being a good bull rider?” When a newspaper reporter asked a Montana cowboy that question, he pushed back his hat and grinned: “You’ve just gotta want to hang on worse than the bull wants to throw you off.” I just finished day 1 of the @YouVersion Plan Men’s Devotional: For Men, By Men.

4th 5K…Struggling With My Progress
ByTim Nolte January 16, 2017February 6, 2017 Updated onFebruary 6, 2017
Since I had more time today, day off today, I took an extra 4 minutes to cool down. Lost the full stats but caught my average minutes per mile to be 10. Feeling a bit frustrated with that average given that my best average to date was 9:31min/mi, just a week ago. :-/ I feel like I’m getting worse not better. Need to figure out what’s going on. Maybe I’m just expecting too much. [endomondowp type=’workout’ workout_id=’859517296′ ] Pro Gym, Jenison, Michigan

Available Kids Activities Have Changed…Am I That Old

My son was invited to a classmates birthday party at Rebounderz, in Jenison. When I was a kids there was the roller skating rink, these days there are so many new activities for kids to try and do. I’m both jealous and feeling old. I think the kids worked off a lot of energy today and will be sleeping well. Rebounderz Indoor Trampoline Arena, Jenison, MI

Friends At Work
ByTim Nolte January 13, 2017January 13, 2017
I’ve been blessed with the opportunity to once again work with one of my close friends. What’s cool is that God brought me to Michigan not only because of my wife, but He placed me in a job where I had the opportunity to build a solid relationship with my co-worker Jon Kay. Since returning to Sprint he has been a huge support to me at work. I’m blessed to work and share life with a close friend.
