Feel a bit relaxed after having completed this website. Yesterday 27th Jan, Sunday, we had a soft launch of the website along with the opening of the Grooming Dales extended office. Grooming Dales is an organization that trains people in General grooming and has a vast array of subjects such as Personality Development, Makeup, Style, Fshion, Etiquette, Diction, Voice culture etc…

It took me a month to develop the website and a few of my team mates collaborated with me from several countries. The US, UK and Latvia. Reverse offshoring : )

Client and associated staff did like the website at first look and were genuine in their feedback.

As some of my friends and clients know, I no longer do design/development, just a bit of Internet Marketing. Which it seems I am going to completely retire from soon : ) So why did I accept this website ?
Yogesh (http://www.crossvent.com ) an old client and friend wanted me to do it, and I could not let him down.

So, all in all, a satisfactory feeling on having completed the site, and now I can get on with my Pending List.

It’s past half of January already !0

And not 5% of the work is done from what I expected to get done. This is pretty bad and sets up 2nd half of Jan with HUGE workload and a challenge on my power to execute.

 Some of the things to be done are (in almost reverse order of priority : )
- Put a foot into the Stock market by opening appropriate accounts
- Clean up office
- Deliver on 1 web design job I had taken up last month
- Get some security system and CCD cameras setup
- Check and work on a couple of websites I purchased last year and have done nothing with yet !

 Let’s see where this gets to by Feb 1st week.

What’s in store for 2008?0

Some of these may see the light of day :

0. Blog more often here.
1. Start 3 new blogs and write regularly
2. Trip to meet a good friend in Lithuania
3. Reduce 25kgs from current weight (97 - ….eeeeeks)
4. Mark as ‘Done’ over 50%  from the ‘Pending List’ I’ve been created last few months

If I do all 5 of the above, I’d say that would be a real good achievement.
