Company logo is getting a redesign. Lindsay has put in a few ideas to make the company more global. She said having plan text as the current logo is depressing Lol I told her then come up with something better. But not offensive. She submitted 6 logo ideas and we are working hard to see what everyone thinks. She said it’s more a decision for her and I and getting input would divide the vote up too thin. I don’t know. I like gathering input before something like this is decided. Makes me feel like we did all we could to make the best choice.

I added a logo design of my own and she vetoed that right away. She’s not into arrows. Mine had a big arrow on it. She said if you point that way it’s too one-sided. Huh? Oh okay. So now we are working on that. She wants the logo to be up and running by January 1st of 2018.

The logo design has been a long time coming. I’m happy with our business websites. They are all working well, able to communicate with our customers and vendors. I like that they function. They look good. Now it’s picking out the main logo. It can’t be this hard.

This transition period is hard for me. I’m used to deciding everything. Handing off responsiblity and delegating more and more is not my strong point. I hope to get better at it. My wife is very encouraging and telling me this is what I wanted to do. So let them take over so I can move on and begin doing all that I dream about. She’s right. I do want to step away. Now is the time with everything running so smoothly. The money seems to be coming in on time and we are able to pay everyone. That’s all I ever cared about. I remember sticking my paychecks back into the business the first month to help out. Then it got up and running and things were fine. At this point I am excited about waking up with my boys and not having to leave them. Next year will be a fresh start and I can’t wait. For now though, I want to continue to work hard and add more great business deals to my legacy.

I just pray Lindsay doesn’t follow a Trump takeover and completely undo everything I’ve worked very hard to build. I guess we shall see.
