14th June (I wish)

I'm devestated. The worst thing has happened. I have been doing my PAD since 26th February. That's three and a half months or 109 photos to be precise. I thought I was doing really well. Yes, some days have been hard but I've really enjoyed it and the discipline that's required. I never thought for a minute that it could happen to me.

Last night, I got myself up out of our comfy sofa to retire to bed. Then it hit me. 'PAD'. I felt a sickly cold sweat wash over me. I glanced up at the clock on the video. It read 12.10am. It was too late, it was passed the deadline, my PAD will never be the same again.

I'm gutted. I seriously thought about packing it in last night. I really wanted to do it properly......sigh......

This is how I feel.

this is the beauty of pading...you are only accountable to yourself...and you shouldn't be so hard on yourself! I thought maybe this was a headache shot...have one of those myself.

I know how you feel, but I agree w/comments below. Lighten up. You do excellent work, and I enjoy and learn from what you do.

Geoff, it's ok! Really!! There aren't any beasties coming after you now with pitchforks to get you for missing a day. It happens! But don't let it make you feel like you want to quit! We'd miss you! Just keep on going like nothing has happened :)

Cheer up Geoff! You have created a wonderful body of work here dude. An inspiration to me...and that's the truth.

Perfection is a pretty tough standard Geoff.
