Hi everyone -

Difficult weekend. Went to visit my father in law on Saturday. He has lost most strength in his arms and now needs help eating. Feels like just 3 months ago we were sitting down to a normal family meal. Just really hard to see someone like this - it sucks all the motivation out of me for everything. My wife went to visit and help on Sunday and said he is really down. Trying to think of ways to help improve his quality of life, but it's challenging because he is so limited.

Yesterday we took the kids to the train park (their favorite place) as a distraction. Kinda strange to see a public place and nearly no Covid precautions in place with the exception of a few hand sanitizer stations scattered about. Not even any signs reminding of social distancing anymore. My family still needs to be careful because the kids have two grandparents with cancer, and one now with ALS, and if any of them got Covid it would be quite serious.

Going to try and get a little modeling done this week to improve my mood. I have a test track that I want to turn into a display track for taking photos. Also want to draw up plans for a micro portable HOn3 layout.
