I have been out of town for the last week following the passing of my grandfather, Harold Bumeter for whom I am named. 

He lived a great life and accomplished many things, but it was a very emotional week as the family came together to organize the funeral and help my grandmother get re-organized herself.

I'll talk more about this in the future, but wanted to let everyone know that I am back.

I feel like my online work year has gotten off to a slightly delayed beginning, as I attended the CES show the second week of January, and then left town to be with my family.

I have a lot of pent up work to do and lots of great ideas that have been stewing up in relation to my writing and my other work.  As my grandfather has passed away, it feels like a certain part of my families history has come to a conclusion, but I can distinctly feel that a new chapter has begun as well.  So it is with somewhat mixed emotions that I say, that I am very eager to get going and start making an impact on the world again and helping people too!
