Start of another week

Well the week has started off the same as it has been for all these months. Head is pounding and fluffy, legs are throbbing and feeling sick. Starting to get used to it now so when people ask "how are you" I find myself saying "I'm ok" when really I'm not.

On the plus side today the scaffolding was finished being put up, so lets hope it wont be too long now before my roof is finally repaired and I will have no more leaks. I realise that as I haven't put any of the on going saga on my blog no one will have a clue what I'm talking about. Put simply, my roof started leaking last Feb, yes that's right, February 2007 and after a so called repair in December and continued leaks, it is finally being looked at. I'm sure I will cover the many problems found with my landlords.

Spent most of today setting my laptop up after starting it from scratch last night after getting fed up with its slow operation. Considering its only 1month old I was shocked how quick it slowed down after some installing and un-installing. Its a lovely laptop my girlfriend helped me buy as my PC monitor has died, well not completely, but enough to make it imposable for me to any design work on. This laptop is proving to be a life saver.

While I am signed off work I have been using some of the time to learn new software. I have already learnt a lot about web design using CSS and hope to further my skills in web design to a level that may help me with finding work. I have also been looking at 3D animation software, in particular Maya and 3DS Max. I had some previous knowledge of Max and am finding there are many similarities between the packages. So keep an eye out for my updated website where I will be using my new found skills.
