Sunday night - I've just emailed off a proof of concept design for a cattle stud website. Hopefully the client gets back to me early tomorrow with few changes being needed. The site needs to be live by very early in November which doesn't leave me much time to share between all the other sites I'm working on. I swear this business is feast or famine. The only problem is that when it is in feast, it's usually overwhelming.
The weekend was good. We spent a lot of Saturday just cleaning up and doing chores. That's not a bad thing; it gets me away from the computer.
Today was supposed to be spent doing some more odd jobs, but neither my wife, nor I, could find the motivation. I finally started work on client projects around 3PM. It's 11PM now and I think I'll be turning in sooner than later.
Another busy week planned ahead. I have a site to complete for a pre-fabricated construction company, client meetings on Tuesday, some design work to lodge for an online art gallery, work to do on two long term projects, a stack of reading to catch up on, some further work on our in-house accounting package, ... the list just goes on.
I had some weird dreams that I wanted to write about but they're eluding me now :/
Oh, the eldest boy had a horrible day on Saturday. He was acting out at every opportunity. There seemed to be a wave of destruction wherever he happened to be. Today was much better.
The youngest ones tooth has gotten worse. $3,000 for dental work since it needs to be done under general anaesthetic. That has me stressed. We have to pay $3000 on December 1st to keep the debt collectors off our door. We've got some good jobs coming in, but we have to get paid for them first, and we had such a dry previous 4 months that all our savings were used. I think it's going to be a tough few months coming up.
So why share all this here? Because you don't know me, and this isn't something I feel like sharing with people I know IRL, but I do feel the need to vent it somewhere. Suicide Girls for therapy ... now there's a concept

Sounds pretty rough.
