A Recap of the Past Week, the Final Round & What Comes Next

As we head into the final round, I want to take a moment to say THANK YOU to everyone who continues to visit my blog, follow my journey, read my stories, and inspire me to keep creating.

What many people don't realize is that this little blog has grown far beyond anything I ever imagined. I have readers and followers from more than 200 countries, and the page reaches people through translations in more than 50 languages. That still amazes me.

Whether you've been here for years or just discovered my work, thank you for checking in, reading along, sharing my posts, and becoming part of this journey.

A Look Back at the Past Week

This past week has been busy, creative, unpredictable, and very much me.

I've been working on my businesses, developing C.A.V. Enterprises LLC, creating marketing materials, refining my notary and loan-signing services, preparing pricing information, working on business documents, and continuing to build the foundation for what's ahead.

I've also been creating content lots of it.

From business graphics and promotional materials to personal reflections, sports commentary, recipes, ideas, and everyday observations, I've continued doing what I've always done best:

I tell stories.

I've also been having some fun along the way.

And with football season getting closer, you already know what time it is:

FOOTBALL ALL DAY! 🏈

I'm not going to pretend that I don't enjoy the entertainment, the competition, the personalities, the numbers, the storylines, and everything that comes with watching sports.

I enjoy basketball too, I have a dedicated NBA text box with Gary Payton, Charles Oakley and Craig Hodges. Scottie does not impact my other NBA relationships. 

During the playoffs, you'll often find me watching games from home while texting friends who are actually attending the events. For me, that's part of the experience.

My Life Is Bigger Than Any One Story

For those who may be wondering, my life is so much bigger than Scottie.

I honestly cannot speak for or to Mustapha. Those are chapters, people, and conversations that belong in their own space.

My life doesn't begin or end with any particular person.

There is a whole lot more happening over here.

I've decided to do something much more enjoyable:

I'm choosing to have some fun.

I don't hate basketball.

I don't hate football.

I don't hate sports.

And I certainly don't need to explain why I enjoy watching a game, following a storyline, laughing with friends, or creating my own commentary.

I Don't Need to Explain My Lifestyle

I've learned something important over the years:

I don't need to explain or apologize for the way I live my life.

I've always lived a disciplined and structured life. I know what works for me.

I enjoy my peace.

I enjoy my routines.

I enjoy creating.

I enjoy writing.

I enjoy business.

I enjoy watching sports.

I enjoy my own space.

And most importantly, I enjoy being exactly where I am.

There is something powerful about becoming comfortable in your own zone.

I Never Wanted to Be a Celebrity

The truth is, I never wanted to be a celebrity.

Fame was never the goal.

I am a storyteller.

I am a writer.

I narrate stories.

I observe people, moments, conversations, personalities, businesses, sports, and events, and then I share those experiences through my own lens.

That has always been my gift.

But I've also learned that every gift comes with responsibility.

When you have the ability to influence, tell stories, connect people, create conversations, or make people think, there is a responsibility attached to that ability.

Whether you call it intuition, purpose, faith, creativity, or personal conviction, I believe gifts should mean more than personal gain.

That doesn't mean I can't enjoy life.

That doesn't mean I can't laugh.

That doesn't mean I can't have fun.

And right now?

That's exactly what I'm doing.

The Final Round

So prepare for the final round.

I'm not going to pick a winner.

You can do that.

I'll simply watch the games, enjoy the competition, observe the storylines, and see where the journey leads.

There is something entertaining about watching everything unfold without needing to control the outcome.

Sometimes the best seat in the house is simply the one where you're sitting back, watching, laughing, taking notes, and enjoying the show.

Las Vegas, Summer & What's Next

Meanwhile, it's summertime in Las Vegas.

The sun is shining.

The city is alive.

And I'm continuing to build.

C.A.V. Enterprises LLC continues to take shape as I develop my services, business ideas, marketing, notary work, loan-signing services, online and mobile services, and future opportunities.

The past week has reminded me that building something of your own doesn't happen overnight.

It happens one idea at a time.

One document at a time.

One customer at a time.

One phone call at a time.

One opportunity at a time.

And sometimes, one football game at a time. 😂🏈

I have some time before my next assignment begins, and I'm going to use that time wisely.

I'll be creating content.

Writing stories.

Building businesses.

Watching sports.

Enjoying Las Vegas.

Spending time doing the things I love.

And, as always, paying attention to the world around me.

My Personal Reference Codes

I've also been asked about the numbers that appear throughout some of my stories and posts.

The easiest way to explain them is this:

They are my personal reference codes.

Some numbers represent people, memories, sports figures, dates, places, experiences, inside references, or personal symbolism.

They are part of my storytelling language and should not automatically be interpreted as factual statements about another person.

Here is the current reference list:

1 I am number one in your life
2 — Second wife to somebody
3 — You see or hear GOD
4 — I am HIV negative
5 — Someone with HIV near me
6 — Dr. J and/or LeBron James
7 — #Vegas or Carmelo Anthony 
8 — Vanessa / 24 Chevy “Kobe Codes”
9 — I am not having a baby
10 — Perfect Me
11 — Who wants to rape... yeah
12 — Jesus had disciples
13 — Esther (Bible)
14 — Valentine's Day
16 — RIP Pope Francis
18 — RIP DJ
20 — Gary Payton
21 — Weed/Marijuana
22 — Both on a second marriage
23 — Michael Jordan
25 — Derrek Lee (Cubs)
31 — Chris Brown
33 — Scottie Pippen
34 — Walter Payton
35 — Kevin Durant
36 — Bishop Don Juan
40Presidential Codes
42 — Floyd Mayweather
45 — What gun do I carry? / Donald J. Trump
50 — I am going off about something (police NOT the rapper)
58 — RIP Judge Zagel (Bears Code)
65 — Dr. Dre
66 — GB2G / George Bush
68 — Year I was born
69 — Commander Brian Thompson (“Silver Fox”)
81 — Cocaine (beware of fentanyl)
00 — Diddy
106 — Park it right here (birthday)
168 — Debbie's lucky lottery number

These references are part of my personal storytelling system. They are not instructions, accusations, or universal definitions. If you understand the code, you understand the code.

And So We Continue...

That's the beauty of having a blog.

I get to document the journey.

Some days are serious.

Some days are business.

Some days are sports.

Some days are memories.

Some days are completely random.

And some days are simply about sitting back and enjoying life.

I'm not trying to be everybody's cup of tea.

I'm not trying to win every argument.

I'm not trying to convince everybody to see things my way.

I'm simply telling my story from my perspective.

And if you enjoy reading along, then we're already winning.

So as we enter this next round, grab your snacks, turn on the game, enjoy the summer, and get comfortable.

NFL PRESEASON FOOTBALL.

FOOTBALL ALL DAY. 🏈

LAS VEGAS ALL SUMMER. ☀️

BUSINESS ALL YEAR.

And me?

I'm just getting started.

THANK YOU FOR READING.

Thank you for supporting my work.

Thank you for visiting my blog.

Thank you for sharing my stories.

Thank you for being part of this incredible global community.

And most of all...

THANK YOU FOR READING ALONG. ❤️

MY ANXIETY IS ON FLEX!!!

I LOST AN ENTIRE DAY OF WORK!!!

BUSY!!!!


Time to Go to Work: Building My Notary Business

I have compiled a list of 100 businesses that can immediately benefit from my services, and I am excited about what comes next.

Bless GOD! A new line of credit has processed, which gives me the ability to take care of my remaining notary registration fees, purchase my stamp and seal, invest in a generator, and start working toward purchasing a vehicle.

It's time to go to work!

I laugh when people forget that I formerly managed various telemarketing teams.

Lead Generation Is My Specialty

I know how to find customers.

I know how to build call lists.

I know how to make the pitch.

I know how to follow up.

And most importantly, I know how to turn leads into opportunities.

While business formation is one of the services I offer, it isn't where I plan to put most of my promotional energy.

My primary focus is Online and Mobile Notary Services, Loan Signing Services, and document processing.

That's where I see an immediate opportunity to build relationships with businesses, professionals, organizations, and individuals who regularly need documents handled correctly and efficiently.

Setting Personal Goals

I'm setting some very specific personal and business goals.

One of those goals is getting my business fully operational and online before the end of August.

I'm taking it one step at a time.

There are registrations and compliance requirements to complete. There is equipment to purchase. There is marketing material to create. There are potential clients to identify. And, of course, there is training.

I'm not rushing the process.

I'm building it properly.

Business Formation Is More Than Filing Paperwork

One thing I want people to understand is that starting a business is more than filing paperwork with your state and immediately going to work.

The exact requirements vary by state, business structure, location, and industry, but there are several foundational items entrepreneurs commonly encounter.

1. Articles of Organization

For an LLC, the Articles of Organization are filed with the state.

I like to describe this as the business's "birth certificate." It establishes the LLC as a legal entity under state law.

However, formation is only the beginning.

2. Employer Identification Number

An Employer Identification Number (EIN) is issued by the IRS.

Once you establish your business, you should take the separation between your business finances and personal finances seriously.

Business income and expenses should be properly documented, and business funds should not simply become an extension of your personal spending.

Maintaining separate financial accounts and accurate records can help preserve clean business records and make tax reporting much easier.

3. Registered Agent

A Registered Agent is designated to receive certain legal and official documents on behalf of the business.

Registered-agent requirements vary by state, and there are specific rules regarding who can serve in that role.

We can discuss the details during a consultation.

4. Operating Agreement

For an LLC, an Operating Agreement establishes important rules for how the company will be managed.

It can address ownership, management responsibilities, distributions, voting, decision-making, and other internal business matters.

An Operating Agreement is particularly important because it helps define how the business operates beyond the initial state filing.

Again, requirements and best practices vary depending on the state and business structure.

Don't Forget Local Requirements

This is where many new business owners get into trouble.

You can't simply file your business with the state and assume you're finished.

Depending on your location and industry, you may have additional city, county, state, licensing, permitting, tax, zoning, or regulatory requirements.

Failure to follow applicable requirements can result in fines, penalties, additional fees, or delays.

That's why I encourage new entrepreneurs to understand their compliance responsibilities before opening their doors.

And Yes... I'm Still Working Through the Blackout

After yesterday's power outage, I could have easily thrown my hands up.

But I'm not angry.

I found ways to work in the dark.

That's entrepreneurship.

Sometimes the circumstances aren't perfect. Sometimes the power goes out. Sometimes the equipment isn't all there yet. Sometimes you have to work with what you have while building toward what you need.

And that's exactly what I'm doing.

What's On My Desk Today?

I have a busy day ahead of me.

I'll be:

- Editing my business website and pages
- Shopping for my vendor tent
- Shopping for signage
- Loading my affiliate accounts
- Building my list of potential business clients
- Preparing promotional offers
- Studying for my Loan Signing training
- Completing remaining notary requirements
- Researching equipment
- Planning my mobile operation

And I'm also reviewing my services carefully so that my advertising accurately reflects what I can legally provide in Nevada.

For example, apostille services require special attention to Nevada's process and the role of the Nevada Secretary of State. I am reviewing my promotional materials so I don't advertise a service in a way that implies I personally issue apostilles when the issuing authority is the appropriate government office.

That means some of my promotional offers need to change.

That's okay.

I'd rather advertise correctly than advertise quickly.

The Countdown Begins

I'm working toward being fully online before the end of August.

Fingers crossed!

The next chapter is about execution.

The registration fees are getting handled.

The stamp and seal are on the list.

The generator is on the list.

The vehicle is on the list.

The equipment is on the list.

The client list is growing.

The training is underway.

And the marketing is being built.

I've spent years learning how to communicate, sell, manage teams, generate leads, handle customers, and solve problems.

Now I'm putting those skills to work for my own business.

It's time to stop talking about it and go to work.

100 potential businesses.

New equipment.

New opportunities.

New goals.

Same work ethic.

Bless GOD... I'm building this one step at a time.


 

Working on my vehicle Wrap Design

"Picking Up where I left off"






 

SHOPPING: "I need a portable generator for my mobile notary set up"!!!

Thank You JESUS my food did not spoil!!!


Shopping for a Portable Generator: Preparing for the Next Blackout

I can't tell you how many blackouts I've lived through. At this point, a power outage isn't just an inconvenience it is a reminder that being prepared matters.

Back in 2017, when I lived off Jones and Tropicana, I experienced this same kind of situation. Yesterday brought back those memories.

Thankfully, I live in a community where people stand together and look out for one another. That kind of community support makes a difficult situation a little easier. But yesterday also made me realize that I need to take another step toward being prepared: I need a portable generator.

Why a Generator Is Now a Necessity

My mobile notary business requires me to work remotely and on location. I have printers, computers, phones, and other equipment that require electricity.

If I'm meeting a client somewhere and the power isn't available, I still need to be able to conduct business professionally.

A generator would give me the flexibility to keep working when traditional power isn't available.

And it's not just my mobile notary business.

When I attend pop-up events, I may need electricity for equipment, lighting, electronics, and other business needs. Having my own reliable power source would make setting up at events much easier.

Yesterday Was a Wake-Up Call

Yesterday was one of those days when I kept thinking:

"I really need a generator."

My biggest concern wasn't even my electronics.

It was my food.

I have spent four months stocking my freezer, and the thought of losing all of that food because of an extended power outage was stressful.

Food isn't cheap. Replacing an entire freezer full of groceries could be a significant financial loss.

That's when preparedness stops being a luxury and becomes an investment.

What I'm Looking For

Today, one of the top items on my agenda is researching a portable generator rated at 2,000 watts or better.

But I'm not just looking for the biggest generator I can find.

I want something that makes sense for my actual needs.

Some of the things I'm considering include:

- At least 2,000 watts of power
- Reliable operation
- Portable enough to transport
- Suitable for business equipment
- Enough capacity for essential household needs
- Multiple outlets
- USB charging capability
- Good fuel efficiency or battery runtime
- Reasonable noise level
- Easy startup and operation
- Dependable enough for emergencies
- Practical for taking to pop-up events
- Good value for the money

I'm also going to pay close attention to the difference between starting watts and running watts. Some equipment requires additional power when it initially starts, so simply looking at the advertised wattage isn't enough.

Business + Emergency Preparedness

For me, purchasing a generator isn't just about surviving the next blackout.

It's also about protecting my businesses.

My mobile notary operation requires technology. My pop-up businesses require equipment. My work depends on being able to operate in different locations.

A portable generator could essentially become another piece of my business equipment.

Power outage? I'm prepared.

Outdoor event? I'm prepared.

Remote work location? I'm prepared.

That's the goal.

The Bigger Lesson

Yesterday reminded me that emergencies don't always give us advance notice.

You can prepare for a storm, a blackout, an unexpected emergency, or a situation that lasts longer than anticipated but preparation has to happen before the emergency.

I've already learned that lesson with food.

Now it's time to apply it to electricity.

Today's Agenda

Find the right portable generator.

Not necessarily the most expensive.

Not necessarily the biggest.

But one that provides enough power for my essential household needs, protects my food investment, and allows me to continue operating my businesses when the lights go out.

Because after living through enough blackouts, I've learned one thing:

I'd rather have the generator sitting in my home and never need it than desperately need one and not have it.

The next blackout won't catch me completely unprepared.

Preparation isn't paranoia. It's peace of mind.
