Real life continues to be relentless. It seems like each thing I take care of gets immediately replaced with the next hot mess that I have to drop everything else and deal with. Always seems to happen at the tail end of a hobby community challenge too, which is an extra let down -- I feel bad that all this real life crap has been all-consuming and has prevented me from keeping up with the hobby community in general, to reading each of your blogs, engaging in the comments, etc. To be completely honest, I have no idea when life will let up. I'm right in the thick of it, but know I just need to stay the course and see these things through.

I know I'll get through this because I always have. Plus it's not all bad; while mentally I'm overloaded, physically I'm doing alright (thanks to everything I've learned in physical therapy).

780 mile goal

I've failed on a lot of goals over the years, but I crushed this one, and it feels good. The body and mind are intrinsically connected, and right now my mind needs to lean on my legs a little more to get through some of this stuff. And that's OK. 

I'll get back to more mini painting soon. Here's a couple I've been working on for Daisy:



AoS models look awesome & are fun to paint

I hope everyone is doing well! Till next time 👍
