I was having a rough day today. Had to leave work early due to an exacerbated hip injury, and spent the afternoon and evening in a medicated haze trying to manage the pain. My wife, my absolutely amazing partner in all things, once again jumped in to take care of me and the kids all day. She took our daughter to the doctor this morning because she was complaining of an ear ache. It turns out she has an ear infection. It's just been one thing after another in recent weeks, and I marvel at how we all manage to hang in there. The simple answer is lots of prayer, and just knowing Jesus is taking care of us.
Well anyway,
We're living in that transitional period between the house we're renting, and the new house we are about to inhabit. My modeling projects all got packed up and moved to the new place. I won't really have access to them until this weekend. With nothing "hands-on" to stimulate that art-hobby part of my brain I've been on edge these past few days. And even in my current heavily-medicated state I can't shake that drive to paint and make something.
I ended up hobbling into the office/studio at some point today, digging through the handful of small boxes that haven't been packed up yet. And Behold, I found a platoon of Flames of War Germans with assault rifles that I had never painted. These guys were like a life-line! Time to get to work!

| This platoon was put together using figures from the Begleit Assault Platoon (GE738) and a couple other random guys. |
 |
| I haven't decided what to use these models for yet, but they will see a game soon. |

| Thanks to my wife for always supporting me in all her countless ways. |
