You might it’s a little early to bit thinking of next year, but I never think it’s too early to set goals. I’ve been thinking of the hobbies that I enjoy on the side and I realized that I haven’t been doing any of them the past couple of years. Lindsay and I were so busy with moving to our new house, our wedding, our honeymoon, work, landscaping the front and back of the house, the building of the gazebo, the basic chores that need to be done around the house, and spending time with each other.

Now that we’re finally got our house in order (unpacked, furnished, decorated, routines in-place for chores, and finding time to spend with each other), the gazebo built (we just have to finish the trim and perhaps install a couple of outlets), and the landscaping pretty much done (we still have some edging mistakes to correct, a small fence I need to build for Lindsay’s garden area and gravel to add to the driveway), I can finally spending some time enjoying my hobbies.

So I’ve decided to start a series of YouTube videos I’ll call “Lessons in Instrumentals”

The aim is to combine two of my major hobbies: songwriting and production, and videography. I plan on attempting to write, produce, mix and master one instrumental a month by allocating 1 or 2 hours every Saturday morning while Lindsay is sleeping. I know the project is ambitious, but I’ve got to start somewhere.

The other hobbies I’d like to return to as photography and writing, but I don’t have a plan for those right now.
