Welcome To Stuff That Matters

NOTE: This post was originally hosted on my "Stuff That Matters" blog, but is being incorporated here for historical preservation.

This is the place for stuff that matters … or at least the stuff that matters to me!

I started blogging a short time ago on my other site, which has largely turned out to be a on-line resume of sorts as it reflects mostly my work and technical interests. With it tied into my employer’s blog feed, I’ve hesitated to blog about certain topics, even when I felt compelled to do so. Recently it hit me that I am sitting on this domain stuffthatmatters.com so why not leave brentbaxter.com as it is and talk about the stuff that really matters to me here. And so it is.

There will likely be no discussion on issues of a technical nature here as I intended to keep the topics more personal and casual. As with many folks, there are a lot of other facets to my life than just work so I will be using this as an outlet for these other facets in my life. You will likely hear about my family, my life journey, my faith, and my opinion on current issues and events. I welcome you to join me by reading along, posting comments, and/or dropping me a line to chat. Everyone has stuff that matters to them, and I’ve learned that I enjoy discussing this stuff. But also like many, I struggle finding the time to reach out to friends and family as I deal with the craziness of my daily life. I’m hoping that this blog will help and perhaps I’ll even find some new friends and reconnect with others.

I hope you enjoy my stuff!
