I’ve not sat at my workbench and put any time into any of the projects I have waiting and in progress, and yet the lure is there. I went down the other night for something in the basement and sat for a few moments and looked over current kits (models and minis) awaiting my attention, and the nice thing is, I don’t feel any guilt or pressure to remedy that lack of building…
I guess I’m at the point where it will come as it comes. I’ll be honest in saying, I did not anticipate bein g so busy in retirement; I heard that it does get busy, and even busier than when you were “working”, but how do you truly prepare or anticipate how much more or less true so that will be? It’s all good… it will come as it comes, building and painting.
The strange thing is, when I got back into the hobby of model building back in the early Armchair General Forum days, everyone used to talk of how they built more during the colder weather months, and how things slacked off during the Summer. Oddly enough for me, I seem to have reversed that bit of common feeling…though, I still prefer to just build all year long!
