And my brain is mush...

I get the feeling that I won't be making much progress on my Recipe Tracker for a bit. My brain is completely obliterated this week. Last week we decided to change directions rather at random on the new project I'm working on and this has resulted in another database rewrite. I believe that brings me up to rewrite number 4 (though fortunately this time there has been a few months between the last one and at least one of the prior ones was my own fault).

My brain is mush this time however because of all of the work we had done before which now needs to be rewritten. Don't get me wrong... I'm much happier with what we're going to be developing now, I just wish we had made this decision several months earlier. In fact I vaguely remember suggesting exactly this the last time we were discussing this. It's not to say there was nothing gained by working on a project that is now scrap for a few months. It was an excellent learning experience with the new frameworks we're using and I truly believe that the fact that we are switching directions after some exposure to what we'll be up against will yield a better product in the long run, I'm not sure that it will be so much better than it would have been had we started building it months ago to justify the time we lost.

So I scrambled today after I had finished tweaking the database to get the little that I could salvage from the old project to compile and run. And once that effort was completed, so too were the bulk of my mental faculties. I will sleep well tonight.
