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...

Hey peeps. Just a quick note to say I've been hiding. I've had a bad week with my depression, spent all day Tuesday and Thursday in bed and just had a hard time finding any motivation to get myself up and about. Feeling a little better now, but still am feeling the edge of depression pushing on me, so I'm still fighting the downturn. Karen's...

Hello all. I have finished the Battlestar Galactica model. It was not a complicated build, but it did teach me a few things, especially about the airbrushing process. The decals were extremely thin and fragile and I had a hard time with them, but finally got them placed.

Next up is a small project which will lead to a larger one overall. Back to a

I hope you are all doing well today, and this week was good. And I hope all of you are safe and healthy.

The protests around the world are continuing, and something obviously needs to be done. We need police to be better integrated into the community and not to be a militant force. On the other hand, I recognize what the police face with...

So what's on the old agenda today? Well, Karen's on conference calls the entire day, literally from 9:00 to 5:00 back to back. I really need to vacuum and do a load of laundry. But most importantly (to me, at least) I am working on my next model. But first, I have finally finished the 2001: A Space Odyssey space ship Discovery.

As you can
