    Not as much painting as I’d like but since I got diagnosed with ADHD and started taking meds for it my ability to budget time has exploded.

    I can actually start things with the confidence of being able to do them. It was life changing for both my mental and physical health.

    I don’t paint minis everyday, more like a day or 2 per week (we’ve all got a pile of shame) and the other things are also usually a day or 2 per week. Photography gets sprinkled into most things though.

    No kids here either which is pretty nice mostly, but I do spend sometime with the niece and nephew. They usually dig me explaining things to them about how things work or how things came to be etc. Or hell even just bouncing ideas around and looking up history topics, they’re pretty fun but a handful when I see them.

    I’ll have to join those communities for sure, when I first hopped over here I couldn’t find much for those things and I’m going to share some for sure there. I’ve shared some of my others in other communities using some of my alt accounts so I’ll probably share those links there as well.

    Thank you for the suggestion.

      I don’t have much trouble budgeting time, but I do find it much more satisfying to finish several small miniatures than to paint something large over a longer time. I’m glad your meds are working for you, and you can have an easier time with everything!

      I’m the same with painting minis - one or two days a week. And yes, my pile of shame opportunity grows faster than I can diminish it. Every once in a while I decide to not buy any more figures until I’ve reduced it to some point. I think it’s time for that again - no new figures starting from August until Christmas.

      Looking forward to seeing what you post!
