We are planning our Open House for May 21, 2010! Postcards will be mailed out to friends & local clients very soon.

Mark it on your calendars and make plans now to stop by, see our new offices and say Hi!

The new RB Design Studio website, now ported over to Joomla! Content Management System is now live. Visit http://www.rbdesignstudio.com to see.

Joomla! is a highly customizable content management that many of our clients are being converted over to. This allows the client to be able to make text changes, upload photos, etc., without having to know HTML.

We are always available for help or even to continue making site updates even after a site has been changed over to Joomla! But giving the client the ability to make some of the more simple changes has been awesome!

Our new website is still a word in progress and the portfolio has been ported over yet, but that is in the works too.

If you find any wonks, please feel free to let us know!

Well, it’s about time! When a website has been online a while, there comes a time for a redesign. Since we are doing so many content management websites, the new RBDS site will be done in the Joomla! CMS. We are so excited to be getting close to this happening.

Also, now our website and our blog will match. You are getting a taste of the look and feel of the new website design if you are reading this blog.

Also, the portfolio will be redone to showcase our designs.

Stay tuned….

What a fabulous event I attended last night! The 5th Annual NAWBO Chocolate Affaire. It was held in downtown Lexington, KY at Bakers 360.

Fabulous food, lots of chocolate, including chocolate martinis!

Awesome prizes! I was absolutely, without a doubt, blown away to win a gorgeous print and then my jaw dropped when they announced my name as the Grand Prize Winner! Wow! That’s all I can say. I have been pinching myself all day to make sure I wasn’t dreaming everytime I walked by that huge Grand Prize poster (thanks to the creativity of McEwen Creative!).

Many, many hours of planning and work went into the event.

It was the annual membership drive for the Lexington Chapter of NAWBO (National Association of Women Business Owners).

If you are a woman-owned business in Lexington, KY, I encourage you to become involved in one of the best networking groups in town! Visit http://www.lexnawbo.org for more information.

We have moved into our new office next door! It is so cool to have officeS now. We were all in one room before. Can’t wait to see what 2010 brings!

Update 2/26/10 – Well we are STILL waiting on some window blinds to be installed. We want to have an Open House and invite everyone over as soon as they come in! Come on blinds!

Usually when one hears that statement, one thinks “bad”.

In my case, it is very GOOD! Wow! What a week I have had.

Monday:
The van in front of me at McDonald’s blesses me by paying for my order!

Then at lunchtime, I had Christmas lunch with my Christian Business Women United friends (www.cbwu.org).

Tuesday:
We were invited to eat supper (our whole family) with some Veterans at their Christmas party at Golden Corral.

Wednesday:
I am sure something good happened Wed. also, but I just can’t remember what it is right now.

Thursday:
I was honored to received the Heart of WROCK award at the annual 2009 WROCK Starz Celebration! http://www.wrock.ws

Note: Also at that same event, as soon as I arrived, I went to the restroom and promptly dropped my iPhone in the toilet! With some help from my friends, I did as I had been told and put the phone in a bag of rice overnight. I also removed the SIM card. Friday morning when I opened the bag and put in the SIM card (with baited breath) I turned the phone on and it worked!!! I don’t know if the rice worked and drew out the moisture or what, but I don’t care! I didn’t have to buy a new phone!

Friday:
A very dear friend had a gorgeous live Christmas arrangement delivered to my office, and a new search engine/internet marketing colleague brought a wonderful gift of a new candle warmer. Since I already had one at the office, I brought this one home and my home office has smelled delicious all day!

All these things, and the fact that it was probably the best week financially I have had in years, made this one heck of a week! I just had to write it down to share it for future reference when things are going so well.

Don’t forget to count your blessings and make the most of even the small ones!

Merry Christmas Everyone!
