So, looks like I've gone about another nine months since I've lasted posted on my blog here at my website. Amazing how the world has changed in this span of time with COVID-19 hitting us and all the turmoil in the world. 2020 has been one heck of a challenging year. Since March, I've been working remotely from home in my studio and social distancing trying not to catch this disease... especially since I am in the high risk category with my asthma and Type 2 diabetes.
With social distancing, I've found that I do enjoy working from my home in my studio office where I feel things are more productive for me. Plus I can crank my music while I work. I hope that I can continue to work from home after the pandemic quarantine is over as I realize that I can fulfill all my duties from home without every having to step inside a cubicle again. We'll have to see.
As for what I've been up to? Well, I've been doing small renovations around the home with my wife Jennifer to spruce up things around here and make improvements. We still have much to do, but I am happy at the changes and fixes going on around here. One thing I've worked on during this quarantine is to organize and curate my comic book collection getting them out of deep storage and removing them from the white long boxes. I have a new system in which I am caring for the books and archiving them for easy access in a new system of bookshelves that no longer need the white long boxes. The process has allowed me the chance to re-read some classic comics and have them available at my fingertips instead of putting them into storage in a garage. More on this later.
I've also had lots of introspective time. I think I'm ready to come out of my hobbit hole and share some thoughts with future posts. Stay tuned.
