Roz Says: Still Looking For That Perfect Identity

It’s early Sunday morning here in NYC. Looks and feels a bit chilly out…

Woke early and ran for the camera to see if I could grab me that perfect picture of “daybreak” I want to be my identify here at Designs by Daybreak. I have some ideas running around in this creative head of mine, but nothing precise. I will admit, the challenge of it all has become great fun!

These days… It’s a novelty when I pull one of my now famous “all nighters!” I still do it from time to time, but not as often. Let’s not kid ourselves, I would pull an “all nighter” in a “New York Minute” if the opportunity arose. Watch up… Rosh Hashanah is coming quickly… I feel an “all nighter,” or two or three coming on!

I have this thing about not sleeping during the day — perhaps I would miss something important. Or… perhaps there is the stigma of being lazy and not getting up on time. But, what is on time? Whose time are we talking about? It is MY time and MY schedule we are talking about — after all. So… who really cares what time I get up in the morning or afternoon!

Well, it’s Sunday morning and I like to watch the TV Pastors — when I am up this early, which is becoming a rarity these days. I have even begun “sleeping in” during the week — shame on me! Joel Osteen and Joyce Meyer are my favorites. They are both “prosperity preachers” and their message is more motivational.

I’m beginning to ramble, I’m off to have some warm oatmeal to feed my hunger and some spiritualism to feed my soul!

See ya later!

P.S.  If the colors on the site do not quite match yet — header image, content and link colors — it is not because I am color blind.  The colors do not match because I have not finished setting up.  I felt getting some content written was more important.  I hope you agree!

Roz Says: Finding One’s Indentity is Not Always Easy

As with most designers, I am my toughest critic.

Designs By Daybreak was my first domain name.  It was chosen because I worked straight through until the break of day most days.  I used to say… “I did my best work in the wee small hours of the morning.”

Right now… I am working on a Blog Design visitors can navigate easily while being one I can identify with.

As with writing content, I find it is easier to design when I have something to start with that is more my own than the images the blog template came with.  The interesting thing is, sometimes the design changes so radically, it often does not resemble what I started with.

Please stay tuned!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
