Big developments for me. A year and a half after getting laid off and becoming self employed, I've gotten a new position with a firm. (Yea). In addition, the modelwife and I are buying a new, much bigger house, about 9 miles from the current location of 72nd scale nirvana (a.k.a my workshop) While I am pleased with these developments, a return to full time employment and a move will really play havoc with my modeling. However, I can't really complain. When the move occurs, I'll document it on here so you can all share in my joy/pain. In the meantime, I am going to try and step up production in anticipation of future interruptions in production. (As Stalin would say, "Long live the glorious 5 month production plan!) |

Congratulations and my condolences as appropriate. I wish you well on the move, those are always awful. I don't think I have finished one kit that was in progress at my last move 5 years ago. I have started and finished a few since the move, but most of the in progress stuff hasn't been touched. |

Aaron, I worry about this and am hoping to finish several before the move. |

Good life stuff happening is always endurable. It's the bad life stuff happening that really gets in the way. So good for you that this is a plus experience overall, and I hope that when it sorts out, the hobby will be better than ever for you. |
