    goes development? :D

    Not great lately. I need to refocus here soon. I've been down in the dumps recently, overworked, underpaid, with no life balance. So hobby stuff has fallen off a bit.

    June and part of July are working out to be crazy times for me, so not sure when I'll be able to be more deliberate. It sounds like I'm making excuses
    but I'm working on writing shitty code and doing work stuff until the wee
    hours each night, I have no energy to work on BBS stuff at the moment. :( But
    I hope it changes soon.

    BBS stuff for me always ebbs and flows. There was a nice renaissance at the start of the COVID restrictions, but they seem to have fallen off. Most networks have turned into cesspools of political drivel, which has driven me away a bit...but I always claw my way back hehe.

    I'm just making sure to check on you guys. Just pinging ya to see if a
    signal bounces back. :D

    I know what you mean about being overworked, I got tied up with a bunch of
    work in previous days. It'll probably happen again as new projects have
    just recently been introduced on my workload.

    I've been trying to give ample time for family as my kids are now on Summer break. I just assembled two gaming chairs for kids. They've been wanting
    them since the beginning of the year. My son now wants a gaming system that
    he can play on.

    Hehe. Time was much easier to manage at the start of the lock-down. Now
    that businesses are starting to open up, so has the flow of work being
    tasked. :P Thanks for responding, let me know if you need artwork for DayDream.

    Well he most definitely needs some sick old school ASCII for his BBS,
    Monterey. If he says he doesn't, ignore him and draw for it anyway! ;)
