Ep 47 - Its Not a Project Until Ray Bleeds

Cy is under the weather but the show must go on. This month Kris, Ray & Eugene discuss how their personal projects are coming along and how being injured sucks when trying to be creative. But it just comes with the territory for some of us because apparently unless Ray gets injured somehow, it doesn’t count as a project in the Andrew household.

Ep 37 - Creative FOMO

This month we do our updates from the previous two months. Ray worked on his shop, Kris worked on her book and Eugene worked on his proton pack. Plus a bunch of other stuff. Also, is it OK to deny yourself something in order to get projects done? We don’t have an answer, but we talk about it.

Ep 35 - Course Complete

Cue the Final Fantasy victory music! Ray finished his course work while Kris made some headway on a blanket and Eugene knocked out a few small projects. I gotta say it was a good… month. The group makes plans for June but tries not to over do it; we’re being kind to ourselves.

Ep 31 - Halloween Wins

Time to see what the group has been working on. Sure, it’s after Thanksgiving in the US, but we’re talking Halloween and all the things we’ve accomplished since then. Tombstones, action figures, paintings and room redesigns; this episode has a little of everything.

Ep 27 - You Are Glitter

Covid strikes again! This time the Canadians were down for the count putting any and all kitchen renovations on the back burner. Meanwhile all of the good intentions in the world could only go so far in Texas as summer vacation didn’t see much done. Oh well, sometimes the universe tells you when to slow down and you don’t have any say in the matter.

Ep 26 - Too Knotty for My Taste

Ever feel like you’re getting close to finishing a project and just as you rounding third base you notice that giant pit of spikes between you and home? Or while you’re on the home stretch that last lap suddenly looks like it’s 3 miles long? While progress has been made on our projects, it just seems like we still have a long ways to go before we can call them complete.

Ep 25 - Too Hot to Work

House renovations continue in Canada while down in Texas it was too hot to work. Literally. At least coming home to a house with no working air conditioning sure made it feel that way. Now that the A/C is working again, maybe work can continue on the proton pack.

Ep 21 - Tis the Season for Creativity

Time to put the lights up on the house, decorate the tree and make festive baked goods… if you are into that sort of thing. No matter how you celebrate the holidays, or not, a lot of people find this to be a creative time of year. Whether its baking cookies with grandma’s old recipe, fixing the train that goes around the tree for the 100th time or designing a new light show for the entire neighbor to enjoy, a lot of us will be busy this season.

Ep 20 - Reminders for Creatives

Sometimes its nice to be reminded by other creators, especially those you hold in high regard, that we’re all mortal and no one is perfect. And it’s ok to take and break. And relax. And be selfish. Derek at Van Oaks Props posted a list of reminders for anxious / depressed creatives on Instagram a couple of weeks ago and it really hit home with us. So this month we’re discussing how we should take it to heart and remember that there is nothing wrong with pulling back from time time, putting down our tools and just catching our breath.
