It has been a long week and started off sluggish, since I was sick on Sunday and most of Monday too. I finally got around to finishing and launching the 2nd portfolio design last night. I still have some more features that I want to add, but decided to release it anyway since I really disliked the last design. The new design is pretty clean, simple and based on a grid type of design too. I thought of using something simple and clean on the portfolio design, because I wanted something super easy for anyone to be able to access and use. Other than finishing up the portfolio design, I have not been doing a lot this week, but catching up on e-mail, since I have not felt that great either. Next week will be full force once again.
The past couple of days has been slow for me, since I’ve been recouping from being sick last Sunday. I hit out of nowhere with a nasty stomach virus/bug, which lasted for about 24 hours thank goodness. I have not been that sick in nearly 15 years.
I’ve just started back today eating solid foods, which is going well, but I’m sticking to foods that are on the “BRAT Diet” for now. Basically it’s a diet that consist of foods that won’t hurt the stomach so it has time to heal and recover.
So the good news is that I’m getting better from that stomach bug, but I am still dealing with sinus/allergies problems too.
I can’t wait for fall to settle here in W. NC. It’s not because of cooler temps, leaves falling, etc. but just want everything that aggravates my allergies/sinuses ( pollen, grass cuttings, flowers, etc.) to go away.
Today is the International Talk Like A Pirate Day, which has been going on since 1995. I enjoy celebrating the day by cueing up a lot of pirate inspired music while working and maybe a graphic or two for some of the social media sites I follow like Twitter.
