+Piecemeal 450 Posted October 26, 2013 Hi everyone. After a long and silent absence from the boards of CA, I've finally had time to catch my breath and poke my head in to see what's been happening in my absence. Reasons for my absence? Well, where do I start...Of course the most pronounced of my activities would have to be the long overdue marriage to my Fiance Sharon on September 21st last. After my breakdown last year, this lady fought tooth and nail, argued and verbally wrestled with the health authorities to ensure my recovery; no easy task for any individual in today's austerity plagued Ireland. What Sharon's done for me in this regard is something I don't think I can ever repay. My doctor has since cleared me as being fit to find work, and I've been busy also trying to find a job, another daunting task here given the lack of them. We're also busy packing and stacking everything for our big move to a new home nearby next Friday. A new life, a fresh start. I have to say though that the low point over the past three months has been the diagnosis of my Mother having advanced lung cancer. A big shock to all my Family, considering that my Father is in remission from prostate cancer. A positive thing that's come out of that bad news though, is how it's bonded my siblings and I closer together than we've been in a long time in order to assist our parents and to be there for them. On the SF2 front, it's good to see that the CA community is still as strong as ever. Admittedly, I haven't even played any of the games over the past couple of months. However, for anybody that might be interested to know, I'm still committed to completing my upcoming (and final version of) Desert V.4 terrain.
