Hello, everyone! I apologize for the lack of updates the past two weeks, as you may know, I have been recovering from my surgery for testicular cancer that took place 2 weeks ago. In that time, I've been recovering, and admittedly I've been a bit fatigued when it comes to drawing and doodling. I met with my surgeon who confirmed it was testicular cancer, and I'll be referred for either monitoring or Chemo with an Oncologist, who I'll meet later in the month. The upshot from that meeting, was that it seems that it was caught early, my scar appears to be healing quite well, and there's no signs of any infection or complications, which I'm happy to hear. I am feeling better every day, and I'm thankful for all of the support and kind words I've received in the past month. From the bottom of my heart, thank you all~

I have been doodling a bit these past few days, but unfortunately, the last few days I've been having problems with Windows freezing on me. I'll still be able to use my computer to a degree, but if I save a project in CSP while this is happening, it will corrupt the file irreversibly. If I try to close programs in task manager, it fails, then Task manager freezes up. If I try to reset/shut down, nothing happens, so I have to do a hard reset.
Currently, I'm trying to find and correct the source of that, and I've done a few things that should hopefully have corrected the issue, but only time will tell. I'm certain this was caused by the power outage last month, though the repair man assured me nothing was wrong with any of my hardware. My own troubleshooting (with help from friends) leads me to believe it was either a problem with the GPU driver update I installed, a Windows update, or with how my GPU/Ram was physically seated into the motherboard. The only thing I noticed was that it might've been the motherboard's main power connector, which was resting slightly on the edge of the GPU. I updated drivers and reinstalled updates, changed power options, flashed my BIOS, and I'm hoping that corrected the issue.

I'm anxious about working on anything important in this time, because I've already lost two CSP files with sketch pages in them.

For now, that is all that I have to share. I wish you all the best, and I hope to have something to share with you soon!

Take care!~
