OK. So writers get “writer’s block” sometimes. It stands to reason that designers would sometimes get “designer’s block” does it not? This week, I seem to have succumbed to it. All I had to do was create a simple web site design. As this week has come to a close, I still don’t have a design I am satisfied with. Last week the ideas were flowing and I created a website in just a couple hours. This week-nothing. Granted, I feel completely burned out. I haven’t taken a vacation since last year and I only got back into serious web design in the past month (after almost a year hiatus). I only hope this block is temporary and, after a relaxing weekend, I’ll be back in groove.

The saying “When it rains, it pours” has never been truer. After just getting my car back from the body shop only two weeks ago, a hail storm has damage the entire top of it. The hail was about an inch in diameter and came down like bullets. All I could do is just stand there and let it get beaten.  This is the second time this has happened to me. From now on, the saying should be “When it rains, it hails.”
