Only half in jest! Learned along time ago that if I don't "roll with it" (whatever the "it" happens to be at the time), I'll go completely nuts.
And, to those who would suggest I went nuts a long time ago ... that's true ... this approach allows me to be a happy lunatic. :
Along those lines, my Mom broke her wrist two weeks ago ... nasty break with metal plates and all that "fun" stuff, so I've been spending a lot of time helping her out ... especially the first week or so when the pain was really intense. Things have settled down now, and I'll just be adjusting my schedule to take her to physical therapy twice a week for the next month or so. Fortunately, it was her mother, my grandmother, who fostered the "roll with it" attitude in the family ... so she's doing well ... and it'll all work out.
Modeling time is shot to heck, but I figure the real joy in the hobby is when you do get those "precious few moments" (sometimes that's all you get) to get deeply involved and "taken away" with whatever the project is. That's fun stuff. And, when those aren't happening, it's especially nice to come to the forum for a few minutes and piggyback onto the fun of someone else's project that happens to be moving at the moment.
Have a few new 1/35 figures begging for attention here ... in a state where a few minutes would further each one, so it'll all work out ... and we'll see some more progress here ... whenever!
Cheers,
Dallas
