Weekend Codefest

The last few days I haven’t felt that productive. Working for an hour at night on my own stuff after working all day is hard going. I am not as efficient at night compared to earlier in the day. I think It’s a big part of why I have not been successful in the past.

But determined not to fail again I am pushing on and plan to have a big weekend of coding. The two goals for the weekend are to finish and test PayPal integration tomorrow leaving Sunday to finish off integration with my SMS provider.

I think both my goals are achievable by the end of the weekend. I can already sense the satisfaction I will get from successfully completing them. Those who have been following my progress would have noticed that I hadn’t planned on starting PayPal integration until mid next week. So to knock this off my list so early will be great for project momentum.

While I have still not completely made up my mind I think I will change to SMS Global as my SMS gateway provider. Clickatell support has been good and they appear to have solved my issue, but the fact I had an issue so early makes me worried about their network. I will probably keep them as a back provider though.

Now all I need to do is get lots of sleep tonight in preparation for the weekend. Oh no… is that the baby crying…
