I know, it almost seems like every other day, but at least it's Friday this time.
I've been struggling with full sinuses and allergies, so progress on the model has been slow, but I have finally finished the painting (except for the tiny pilots) and am now down to the decal details. This is a new model configuration so some of the decals and their...

Woof, I lost my entire Monday to sleep. I went to bed early Sunday night and slept all night, tried to get up Monday morning, but only made it 30 minutes before I had to go back to bed, then slept until 3:00 pm. I made it a few more hours, but then was back in bed again and slept the rest of the day...

I read a post of someone saying "I woke up this morning. It's not what I expected, but let's see what happens." I thought about this one for a while and am feeling this for 2020. It's not that I don't expect to wake up, I just dread it any more. I also dread going to sleep, knowing I will just have bad dreams and...

Well, I guess the Lego creation is a no go. First, there are several blocks that are no longer being made by Lego. So then I have to go to other sellers to find them. Once I do that I then have to pay shipping for them (how much easier if I was just buying them from Germany or Netherlands, where lots of these sellers...

Every day just seems to be a repeat of the day before. I found myself yesterday just saying "Different day, same thing." And it really is, routine can be both a comfort and a killer. Too much routine makes every day feel the same, making me start to wonder what the point is any more. But there is nothing else for it but to push...

So I finally got most of my accounts back under my control and have requested a few little used ones be deleted. What a pain. I need to come up with a new password schema to get ready when someone cracks these passwords.
Last night we went to kung fu and it was more pleasant. Our Sifu likes the gym super hot and actually turns...

I spent a few hours on Monday fighting against attacks on some of my accounts out there that were under attack by someone from Poland. Poland? Really? Thanks a lot jerks. A few weeks ago it was China. Right now I'm trying to find a way to get some of these accounts deleted, ones that I have not used in a while, in an effort...

Well, here we are, once again, on Monday. I hope you all had a good weekend. We suffered through another July 4th Independence Day here in the US. Fireworks were going off all over the place, but we survived. Mostly. ;-)
A pretty good weekend all in all. Karen made and axe-throwing target and we strapped it to a tree so she could throw axes...

Well, today is a new day and I am feeling better. I have a bit of a headache still and lots of sinus pressure, but I'm feeling better.
I thought I'd update you all on the model progress. I have most of it finished, though still in parts. I am working on painting the pilots and the cockpit background, though I probably should not have...

Hello all. I hope you had a good weekend. Mine was mixed. A pretty decent Saturday followed by a Sunday where I felt awful and ended up sleeping all day. Today I don't feel too good either. I am very dizzy and am having trouble concentrating or doing anything. I think it's sinus issues, so we'll see if any meds help me out. Basically, every...

100! That's right, this marks the official day 100 that we have been in quarantine. Not as many days as most of the world, but the US was, and still is, behind the curve. So we are counting the days from when Karen started working from home. And like most everyone, we are sick of it, but committed nonetheless. We all have to be. I...

First of all I just want to say I have no idea what is up with me. Depression-wise I seem to be doing better, but then my body basically collapsed and I've been over exhausted all week long. I've been sleeping poorly at night then taking extra long naps during the day, which probably contribute to not sleeping well at night. So today I'm going...
