Question Where in the world is Colin?

...did I miss something? I haven't seen Colin post in a dogs age, was he sent to timeout or something?

Hi Everyone,
Thanks so much for your concern. I agree I have not been around for a while. Without going into it too much I am going through some personal problems that I think I have rectified now. Along with this and trying to get caught up on three commissions that I have to have finished for Christmas Eve it is a little stressful. I will post later when I have a little time. I am sorry I havent responded to any posts for weeks but I really havent been in the right state of mind to do so. Again thanks for your concern I will be back ASAP.
Colin

Sorry to hear you've been through a rough patch, Colin. I hope the roads will be a little smoother now. And here's hoping and praying that your Christmas and New Year will be joyous, healthy, and prosperous.

Spoke with Colin today,

His family is fine and so is he. His Daughter has been keeping him busy with a project , they have been trying to finish up before Christmas, basically refinishing a basement. So between that and his commissions he has just had no time to post. So three big projects and no time has had him a bit frustrated.
He said things are starting to calm down now and he will be back soon.

Thought you would all like to know.

Ash

Thanks for keeping us updated. Sorry to hear he has been so inundated with work. Thought that was something you did when you didn't have anything else to do.
Too bad we are all spread so far apart, a few of us could get together and had that basement done in a couple of days.

Ash, Thanks for bringing us up to date! I've never met Colin "in person", but through his posts feel that I know him. And I, like others, "do miss him". Tom H
