Thank you,
JeanHarville!!
Showing is far from being financially rewarding, so to me, to make for the show makes absolutely no sense!!!! I do what I like because I enjoy it and want to keep the FUN in it, as you noted.
And yes, I do try to keep the accuracy ... with what it costs, to me, it only makes sense to do the best I can in all I do. It takes very little extra time to square up as I go along in a project and avoids disappointing final results.
Creativity is not my strength. I have so many here on the QB to say THANK YOU to, for helping me develop in that way. I have learned so much and picked up so many ideas here, that it has helped my creative juices flow ... so I am getting better at it.
