Dear TMP We are coming up to the end of the day on Friday. I Challenge you all, from the most busiest to the one with time on your hands to try and have a good weekend. I pray that misfortune passes you buy for this weekend, and that you have no sorrows and that the world lays lightly on your shoulders this weekend. But I also challenge all of you to try and accomplish ONE thing in your hobby or build or do ONE thing in your hobby that gives you pleasure and makes you smile. Let's do that and come back Monday and see what we did, brag about it, and enjoy what we did and compliment and take pleasure in what our brothers in war games accomplished. Those of you inclined to be snarky- please find your yuks elsewhere. |

Got some American friends coming over today. They're gamers but I'm introducing them to Napoleonics. 1812 Russians Vs French. Should be a GREAT day. |

Going to hopefully run a demo game of Five Men in Normandy tomorrow. A few Soviet soldiers and a few German soldiers somewhere on the outskirts of Minsk 1944. |

Also power through painting and basing 11 guys tonight. 15mm so shouldn't be too bad. Just hope this paste stuff for the bases dries quickly. |

I'll be chopping heads off Imex 54mm AWI Militia and adding metal heads from ATKM plus sealing a bunch of figures. Weather here in Western MA is crazy: going to top off at 80° all weekend so will take advantage of it. |

The only hobby related achievement I have this weekend is to pack up all my dollies so we can move. |

My service dog and I are going to walk across the Ohio river and have 2or 3 beers this afternoon MIT Meine Frau. Mass tomorrow, and maybe start a regiment of chasers d'afrique for the Crimean project for cincycon 15. That's gonna be a grand game, over 1200 soldiers and 26 cannon. |

Just moved house so failed as it's all over the place… but I did tidy the garage and get my painting desk set up and ready… Which is a good start. Just need to empty boxex, put stuff on shelves and I'll be ready to roll. |

Dear List My weekend saw the completion of the remodeling of the back basement wargaming room. This might seem more home repairs, but I was able to put up some lexan fronted displays for miniatures, reorganized by wargame books and made more space for more soldiers, I also completed two articles for publication and got a game proofread and ready for final copy printing.

I ran three demo games at the local shop, had some fun talks about Striker and old SPI games and had a very tasty grilled cheese sandwich. Not bad all in all. |

I visited the Cedar Creek Battlefield and then started the 4Ground Bank builing. |
