Busy, what else?
Jul. 19th, 2018 11:18 pmI had a very funny German postcard once, depicting a Grandpa doing DIY stuff around the house while the grandkids were terrorising him. It said: Some retired persons are wondering how they had so much spare time while still working. Well, I'm not retired yet, but I'm definitely more busy than at times when I have to work.
Today, I nearly finished Christmas Exploding Box #5. 11 of the 17 panels are fully decorated, and the remaining ones are quite simple as the decorations reach across two and three panels, respectively. I only have to make one individual panel left; that and the lid that will look like a little cottage. That's going to be brutal, with the slates on the roof and other minute stuff. I'm still planning to finish it during the weekend, though.
I also planned out Elf-root Revisited - as if I needed another story before I'd finish at least one of my never-ending WIPs! This is an idea I've been toying with for years and originally hoped that I would get away with just a missing scene. Well... not gonna happen. Doomed, platonic Dwarf/Hobbit romances don't work that way, unfortunately.
And now I need to re-read some such fics to get myself into the right mood.
