It's Friday. It's been a damn good week I must say. I'm certainly still dealing with some "things". That's just life. Otherwise, I feel like I've leveled up this week.

One of the tings I've sorta been dealing with is the relationship developing between me and my middle-school sweetheart. Things have gotten hot-and-heavy, you could say, as well as slightly complicated. She and I have been tying up loose ends in order to be able to carry on getting to know one and other. I believe our hearts and minds are on the same wavelength. We've been trying to keep ourselves and each other grounded, her more than I (I'm the dreamer), although we can't deny the pure unadulterated passion which keeps our souls yearning for each other's embrace.

As for business, things are moving along amazingly well. I closed a deal to create a logo, branding and social media marketing for a local luxury picnic event planner and caterer. The company is owned by a lady names Shelly. The company is named One Shell of A Time.

Shelly has hired me and my team to create an iconic logo which will stand out on the internet, signage and merchandise as well as point of purchase materials. We will be providing her with a branded NFC device to replace her need for business cards and mitigate mistakes and waste. We're gonna create custom social media icons for links on her website and we'll fully customize her Linktree.

I've advised her to get her Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok, Linkedin and Pintrest in order so that we can brand those and get everything looking unique and uniform. I've also advised her to sign up for Google My Business and Yelp right away. Those are great sites for reviews and advertising.

Shelly already has a family friend working on her website. I am confident this individual is proficient in SEO as he works for one of the biggest website companies around. And we can always collaborate and see if we can fill in each other's blanks.

I met Shelly at the monthly outdoor market in downtown Delray Beach last weekend. I never though a luxury picnic planner would be among my clientele; after sitting with Shelly for a short time and getting to know her vision and her person, I understood right away that our business trajectories and intentions are very much aligned. So far, we vibe well, we're able to communicate and listen to one and other. There is a flow. That's important in my business. I'm very happy the way things are working out. I look forward to a sustained partnership with One Shell of A time.
