E14's very quiet at the moment

It's very quiet here at the moment. Where is everyone? You can't be on holiday. image

    I am busier than normal at work. My workload has almost doubled since the pandemic hit.

    My hobby electronics life hasn't declined though, partly because my sports activities have been severely curtailed.

    I am just working on my own projects his year instead of producing a couple of blogs every week and competing in some of the cool contests on element14.

    Other than a couple of pandemic related projects, I have not blogged much at all.

    Currently there are 9 project boxes stacked up beside my desk representing projects that have made it out of the conceptual stage into the collecting parts phase. Of course there are still more projects accumulating in the conceptual phase and still more on the back burner, where I have some parts but not actively spending time progressing.

    My most current front burner project is about a week away from first test of the full system. This is a unique and fairly risky research project, so that should be an exciting test.

    It's amazing how much time the blogging really takes, isn't it?

     

    I've also been having to prioritize time spent making over time spent blogging about it.
