Gadgetman! Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Sort and catalog your minis? Get caught up on your reading? M.C.A Hogarth's book Mindtouch (first book of the Dremhealers series) is now available as a free ebook. (She's the one who got a certain game company all up in a tiff with her book 'Spots, the Space Marine') Or possibly do a 7day challenge or two... 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72moonglum Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Is this a trick question??? Paint until you can’t paint any more, until your hand won’t hold a brush, until you fall asleep face down on your painting pallet. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auberon Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Working from home is not an option for me. Current policy is anyone that tests positive/lives with someone who tests positive is sent home for two weeks at 100% pay. In that case I would be free to hobby for two weeks. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, that's probably not even enough to take a bath in. Geez. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My company just said stay home and continue to do everything you are currently doing, and by the way, you cant travel but we still expect you to do everything you were planning to travel to do in a remote fashion... Just figure it out. I haven't seen a vacation of more than 3 days in over 10 years... even a pandemic can't get me a week off! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My situation isn't anything as extreme as yours; I just don't care for working from home. I'd rather have the separation When I work from home for long periods, I wind up into a cycle of hobby and family distractions that extend my work hours. And then it feels like I'm always working. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
