Hi all, been gone for a long time. Still dealing with health issues, unfortunately. But I'm hoping we can start again around the New Year 🤞 if people are still interested. It depends on how things go health wise, but I'll update more later.

Hi all, COVID has really knocked me off of my feet. I'm getting a little bit better, but I'm going to need to delay the contest again this week. So sorry. Hoping things will be back to normal next week.

Literally can't win these past couple of weeks. 😭 After successfully avoiding it for four years, the ER staff sat me next to someone who had it without telling me or offering anyone masks. Anyways, there will be further delays. Sorry, but I just feel like a trash can rn. 😓

Hi all! Still not doing great (chronic issues) but better than I was last week. Posts incoming! Most of us changed our clocks in the US recently. Not sure how that impacts the time difference in various areas, but it will still be midnight Pacific Time.

Posts are delayed this week due to personal health issues. I'll share when they're ready, but it won't be right away. Apologies.
