Summary

Tyler just got back from a trip to Belize with his wife and kids to visit his dad and stepmom, and he’s here to tell us all about it. For the first time in a long time, Tyler spent quality time with his family uninterrupted — no internet, no cell phone, no distractions. And his message to everyone listening? You need to do the same. Tune in to hear Tyler talk about setting boundaries to spend quality time with the people you love, and how important it is for you, but also your loved ones.

My suggestion to any of you who kind of feel as though you're not doing the best that you can or that you're being pulled in a million different directions as life does step back.

0:14.4

Good morning. Good afternoon. Good evening to everyone. It's Tyler. I'm back with another episode, another recording of midweek and the supplemental blog post, which if you guys haven't checked it out, our website is up and running.

0:34.4

We have some adjustments and some tweaks to make, but we wanted to get it live. So there are some podcasts and blog posts that are on that page now that you can actually see the written version of these. And again, it's not a transcription.

0:50.4

It's a podcast or a blog post that I'm writing prior to hopping on here and recording this that will have a little bit more information, some possibly some more specific information and just a different medium to get this out to you.

1:05.4

So that those will be populating the website. Generally, when these these recordings are coming out. So if you haven't checked it out, hop on over to the new website and check it out and obviously let us know what you guys think that it's modern craftsman.co.

1:23.4

M-O-D-E-R-N-C-R-A-F-T-S-M-A-N.co. Thanks to Slash and everyone who got that up and running the team internally. Doug, Catherine, Ariana, we could not have done this without you guys, our partners, Anderson, Rockwall, Builder Trend, with, you know, without everyone's help, we would not have been able to do this.

1:49.4

We're greatly appreciate all the help everyone who's had a part in this and obviously our listeners. I just got back, excuse me, we just got back last night around 11 p.m. from Belize.

2:06.4

We took a family trip there and it was, we left yesterday morning around 11. There's three flights, a puddle jumper and two additional flights, one into Atlanta and then from Atlanta to Philly.

2:20.4

I had inspections this morning at 7 a.m. on the job, the girls had school, Rachel had work, so it's been a mad dash to get back into the country and get going again.

2:32.4

But all in all, definitely worth it, we enjoyed ourselves a lot of what I was projecting was nonsense and it was a really, really nice trip.

2:43.4

Before I get into that, I want to give a shout out to, I'm going to botch this name badly.

2:53.4

Stephen, Rat, Ratpo, Janneco, I don't know how to say it, but Stephen, as per my request for suggestions for coffee, sent me some suggestions as far as what he uses for drip and espresso and he said it's a company called coffee cult out of Florida.

3:18.4

And he actually sent me a gift card to order some coffee. So thank you to Stephen. I apologize that I murdered your last name so terribly.

3:29.4

But he says that he's a home would worker up in Connecticut and Greenwich Connecticut.

3:37.4

And he's building a built in desk for his kids and he said he takes a lot of inspiration from Nick and myself and the modern craftsman team.

3:45.4

So thank you, Stephen. I ordered that coffee today while I was waiting for inspections because if I knew if I didn't do it now, it would sit in my inbox. So I did that.

3:54.4

I ordered some coffee and I believe it's going to get here in two days.

3:58.4

So I'm going to have to try that out and let you know what I think, but I'm very excited and super appreciative for that, Stephen, you did not have to do that, but thank you very much.

4:08.4

Okay, so back to our regularly scheduled program.

4:14.4

As you guys and girls know at this point, if you'd listened to last week's midweek, I had a family or we took a family vacation to believe my dad and his wife, my stepmom.

4:31.4

They, I guess for the past 15 years or so have been traveling a fair amount.

4:38.4

My dad is, he invests in about a lot of real estate and his wife, my stepmom is a dermatologist and they're at the point in their lives with their slowing down and they travel all across the world.
