“And it is still true, no matter how old you are -- when you go out into the world, it is best to hold hands and stick together.”
I've really neglected this page.
I'm sorry. This year...Well...It hasn't been great. If you don't follow my
account you wont know all the stuff that's gone down but basically since November life has been really wonky.
First a very good friend died, then Patreon killed my buisness, Then my Dad died, then my Mum had a psychotic breakdown (triggered by my dads death in March and she's been in the mental health hospital ever since) Then my husband lost his job, our car broke, We both caught norovirus. All through this I'm trying to study for a diploma to train to be a therapist doing various essays and assignments, and draw pictures/comics. I'm not gonna lie, It's been a lot and so I had to cut back on a bunch of stuff, Found was one of the first projects to be put on hold, Then Cottontail Nursey. I've been struggling to focus and had very little in the way of mental fortitude to tackle a lot of normal mundane things.
But ultimately this is all time relevant. The past week there has been a shift. Most of this stuff is in the past now, granted my mum is still ill and my husband is still job searching, but again these things will change as time passes, But I've found a strength to start picking up the projects that I had to drop by the wayside and I feel like I'm getting back in touch with myself....Well..Not gquite, more that, myself has changed the last 6 months and I'm becoming acquainted with this newer me, and the newer me wants to get back to work and start drawing more Gem and more cute stuff.
So sorry for the hiatus here, you'll be seeing more from me soon.

Big 🐨 hugs lil one ^^
I do hope this recharge helps you get back to being you, and you can get all the good vibes and innocent feelings back and can finally do a little more self care, it genuinely sucks not being able to be oneself and always being "on" especially with all the mess that has happened, 2024 has not been your year sweetness, and remember its okay to take 5-10 minutes and be the little baby you are. Start small, work up to longer times, ans remember for every 1 impatient supporter you have, there are 1000 patient ones, so in the end the majority want you at your healthiest and bubbliest.
Love your new banner btw! ^.^
I hope your mom sees this through, I hope everything goes well for you. I'm taking steps to make it go well for me too, but like you said.. hard to focus, hard to get into the things you once enjoyed.
Businesses closed down where you live.
May I offer you a hug? I personally always like hugs when things go wrong, or good, or anytime really ^^" But we are literally strangers, so I figured I'd ask first to not overstep a boundary
I think your community is very understanding.
Also it is fun to chase the tiny baby around on the floor. :D
I missed that he had lost his job, I wish him the best in finding another that fits him.
