. .. can't believe the last journal update was Jan this year?? o___o

❤❤❤❤ And just like that.. 2021 has blown past ❤❤❤❤

It's honestly nuts just how quickly this year has sped through the months and it's just over half-way through December~

like...... dang \8S

Felt like only a moment ago that I was signing a bunch of birthday postcards to folks with 'hope the year is going well thus far' (it only being a few months in)


But despite the ups, downs, in, outs and all arounds it's been since earlier 2020; I'm actually doing ok coming into 2022 too?
—ngl; there has been some hella stuff that's been difficult, think everyone has felt this in some fashion or another (and my heart goes out to all of ya'll still struggling in any capacity: try to look after yourselves and know that you have friends you can turn to ♥)

But the drastic Change-up in living life in lockdown also presented some unexpected opportunities that have seen the Freelance Illustrating gig take an up-turn that's shifted the whole model around for the easier and more manageable.

Even turning enough to be able to hire help with the Admin-side of things; and that's opened up the 'one person can only do so much' ceiling that I was hitting previously
— And the future might indeed be loking bright over the very near horizon also? :> Stay tuned for what's coming next!



Very much looking forward to attending events, travelling & seeing friends/etc in general once more once those are in fuller swing once more in 2022 (touch wood!) and it's great being outta (Melbourne) loackdown again with Vaccines being rolled out as far n wide as those have

—Which there is ALWAYS still more work to be done also btw; so please be doing your part by getting vaccinated, following safety guidelines and encouraging others to do likewise! ♥

We've all come this far, lets beat this thing proper!

🍉 This Song really grabbed my attention the other day~ something about the retro aesthetic and chunggy beat that is quite fun~

🍌 This Artist also popped up on the radar, and love what I'm hearing thus far!

🥝 Just a quick reminder for folks with catty-beans in their lives: there are a bunch of plants and flowers that are toxic to felines

Get educated on what's ok to have around the house and save your floofs some headaches n hardship!
