Reading Time: 7 minutesIf you’ve been following this blog for any length of time, you’ve probably figured out that I absolutely love the Startup Weekend concept. I love attending Startup Weekends and I really enjoy spending an entire weekend building something from idea into an actual, possibly viable business. Add in working with a brand new team of … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 7 minutesIt’s hard to believe how quickly the last three months have flown by in the Iowa Startup Accelerator. November 3 was ISA Launch Day, and this year’s cohort did a tremendous job presenting and summarizing what they’ve been working on over the course of 94 days. I popped in to work on QuickScore the day before … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 7 minutesSeriously, what happens to the time? It seems like the last couple of weeks have been a complete blur. My older daughter is nearly two months into pre-kindergarten. My younger daughter has gone from just learning to crawl to nearly walking. My wife has only two weeks of residency left. And, I’ve nearly finished all … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 10 minutesAs The Pause came to a close, it was time to reconnect QuickScore with the rest of the cohort from the Iowa Startup Accelerator. So, what better way to reconnect with everyone than to go to a giant party for startup founders in a warehouse at the base of the Rocky Mountains? Honestly, I can’t think … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 5 minutes(I haven’t had a chance to update this blog in nearly a month, so I’m writing a two-part post detailing everything over the last few weeks. As you will read, a lot has happened! I’m finishing up the second part of the post, and that will be online October 10.) Wouldn’t you know… we decide … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 4 minutesThe weather finally decided to cooperate last weekend where I could get outside and take a machete to the lawn. It had been three weeks since I’d been able to mow our half-acre, and had I had a hay baler, I probably could have made some extra money selling the output to local farmers. The … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 8 minutesTo call the last three or four weeks a whirlwind would be an understatement. After playing the role of stay-at-home dad for the past four years, I had forgotten what it was like to work full time in an office environment, rather than working in my home office when the girls are napping, after dinner … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 6 minutesTo say the last 10 days have been eventful would be an understatement. For those reading this that don’t already know, I am participating in the 2016 cohort of the Iowa Startup Accelerator. I hadn’t said anything about it in the last couple of posts not because I was applying for any startup I’m building, … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 3 minutesI don’t know about you, but it feels like this summer is moving along faster than ever. My older daughter’s tennis and swimming lessons wrap up in a week, and her forms for preschool are due at the end of the week. County fairs have started all over the state, and the Iowa State Fair … [Read more…]
Reading Time: 4 minutesThe scourge of DeathPlague9000 has finally left our house after nearly 3 weeks of misery. As I mentioned before, I was the last person in the house to get it, and not only did that virus knock me out for 5 solid days, but I managed to get a nasty case of conjunctivitis on top … [Read more…]
