Hiya. Long time, no see, huh? I apologize for my extended absence. Without going into too many details, I was admitted to the hospital in mid-March with what turned out to be multiple infections after coming down with a nasty flu the week before. After 4 days I was supposed to be released but after 4 days of being in bed I found myself being talked into going to a rehab center, where I still am. I won’t go into that as it’s a long story and I am still typing one handed. But I can do it well enough to start blogging again.
I have missed a whole lot in the hobby world over the past few weeks such as surprise web releases and the biggie, True Blue Breyer...
I really dislike all the virtual stuff going on but since this has an Australian theme and I’ll likely never go there, I decided to enter for the chance at a ticket. I felt guilty for potentially taking a spot away from an Australian hobbyist, but then I saw it was an online event. Plus, I HAD to have the celebration model...So I, and likely hundreds more, entered. Unfortunately, I didn’t win and people are already selling theirs for a crazy amount on the secondary market. Grrrr. Oh well. There was also a Classic series web special that I missed out on because it sold out long before I heard about it, which led me to the reason for this blog post.
Oh Yay! You got your order then?! The way i read it was Amazon sent it to your home address...So did Amazon then take it to the Rehab place or did bro take your package to the Rehab place? Either way, i am soooo glad you got some cheering! Hugs! (shan, here)
ReplyDeleteNo. Actually the other package was a different order. The one with the SMs was delivered to the rehab place.
DeleteYay! Glad that you are back to blogging, you received your Amazon package, and that you are doing better.
ReplyDeleteI also put in for the True Blue event but wasn’t drawn. I actually like 3 of the models (Croi, Old Timer, and the Clydesdale mare); there have been events when I didn’t care for any of the models offered. I even liked the True Blue event models, Bondi and Roo. Oh well, maybe I’ll be drawn another time. This won’t be the last event, I’m sure. :)
Thank you. Now I just need to get caught up on my blog reading.
DeleteI don’t like any of the True Blue specials just Bondi but I was willing to pay the entry fee just for him. Lol. I like the Old Timer...the contrast in his harness and body color...but he looks funny without the blinkers and hat.
Feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I appreciate it
