Broken promises and broken deadlines

On February 19th I said "I've made a promise to myself that no matter how busy my schedule is I'll update on a daily or semi-daily basis." Well, things don't really work the way you plan, do they? Not only my son got sick and needed extra care, but a huge and urgent project came upon me at my workplace. Now, this could have been all nice and dandy if there was the slimmest chance we will be able to make it on time. But two weeks before the deadline (which was right there near the time the project fell on my head) it was obvious it's not going to be finished on time. This didn't stop me from working my ass off every day until midnight. The deadline came and went and this thing is still not finished. Obviously, after we missed the deadline there was no point to keep on pushing it as hard, since we missed this opportunity. No worries, another one will come along soon.
