Get back into your CAD, into your language, into your ideas and create!

Whos got a month? We've only got a week (were in a week 1 regional).
But your sentiments are correct. Now is not the time to be depressed at what doesn't work (or work well). Now is the time to get prepared and plan for what needs to be done.
