32 months ago I was offered a bonus to forgo my final year of corporate servitude and retire. This was not what I had planned, but then, rarely have my life changing events EVER been “as planned”.
I had almost completed the full remodel of my house in AZ and felt it was finally time to begin utilizing the carefully crafted design that fit my lifestyle so perfectly.
(Except, for the stairs). I had my list of application development projects that had been waiting for the right tech to allow them to come to fruition. AND for me to have the time to research and test the boundaries of the “latest” capabilities. Retirement?  NO!  This was an opportunity for EARLY UNTIREMENT!  The freedom to build MY designs instead of those who failed to see what today truly offered for tomorrow. However, 3 months into my untired work, a completely different opportunity knocked.

“I just bought your neighbor’s house down the street for cash”, she said.
“You have the same floor plan, but they said you had done considerable remodeling.  Mind if I take a look?”, she asked.
Never missing an opportunity to point out the features of my design, I consented.

Little did I know this would be evidence of the SOMETHING referred to in the scientific hypothesis:  There MUST be something that moves a system from its current state to one that is better for the planet and its population, in defiance of all probabilities, patterns and past behaviors.  Or as I put it in my pilot TV Script: Earthlings call it Fate, Destiny, Faith, Luck, Serendipity and even Random Chance but the rest of the galaxy calls it: NaturalAwe.

“This is perfect for one of my clients” she said,  “I will pay you double what you owe, in cash”.
“Wait What?” I asked.
She repeated the offer.

Two weeks later we were boxing up the contents of our house we wanted to keep and loading it into a storage locker. Everything else was getting sold.
NaturalAwe struck 2 more times over the next few months (two whole nuther episodes) and we found ourselves moving into a house with a back yard that borders Disney property in Orlando, Florida.
It as taken me two years to reconfigure compliance with our Disneyworld neighborhood lifestyle while including a return to my tireless work, but I am happy to report that everything is now in place and this site will be quite active as projects progress.
