    Hey Lauren,

    been watching your thread and the comment's for a while. In my mind it seem's like you've hit the wall, like much of us do. Not only are most of the step's at this point of the build, not as dramatic as initially, the rose has faded from the bloom somewhat. I offer incouragement and offer a little advice as well. If'n ya want it here's my thought's. You've made a heck of alot of progress in a short amount of time and most poster's expect the same. These same poster's "probably" known the amount of work still necessary as well as what you've accomplished so far. In each case you have done extremely well, but carry on with your build at a pace you are comfy with and post as you see fit. You have become quite the rock star on this and some time's star's need to take step away (from the forum) and enjoy the process. Maybe I'm wrong but.......

    First saw your thread late last year after I first signed up on the hamb then lost track of it.Just found it again and blown away by the progress and quality of work I'm seeing.Keep the updates coming.
     
  30. Lauren, if you have indeed hit the wall, welcome to the club. It happens to everyone. Sometimes it's better to pull back ,re-charge the batteries and take some time off away from the project. It's called burnout and sometimes life gets in the way. Looking forward to future posts but only when your damn good and ready. Hang in there and good luck.:D
