New Year, New Outlook
10 months ago
Greetings all.
I know it's been a while since I made any posts here on FA. Things have been happening as of late, and I've been trying to get a lot of stuff sorted out.
First, I want to wish everyone a Happy New Year, as we all begin our journey into the year 2025. I personally feel that this will be the year of new discoveries, as well as disclosure among many other things. I know a lot of us are charging into the new year with high hopes for better health and prosperity. There are also those who are ready to take on 2025 with heavy hearts, and angered minds for reasons I cannot say here. It's not my place to take sides, all I ask is that everyone looks out for one another, especially in times of urgent need.
As for how things have been, they've been quiet for the most part. I'm still living with my grandmother in Norton, MA. She's been holding up well so far, and have managed to get her to see a qualified psychiatrist to speak with her about her anxiety, and depression. I've started receiving SNAP benefits to help pay for groceries, so we can keep some decent food in the house, even though she still wants me to buy a bunch of the sweets that she so craves. I have tried to get on disability for my psoriatic rheumatoid arthritis, but was unfortunately rejected by the state on the grounds that I was making just above a set amount a year working one day a week at a job that I rarely see anything over 6 hours. How that panned out is beyond me, but it is what it is.
I know I haven't uploaded much here of FA, but as I begin the new year, I do hope to change that, and start working on projects once more. I do plan to do more sketches in the near future, as I feel I've been lacking on those for some time now. And I finally swapped out my GTX 1060 3gb, for an RTX 3050 8gb. Not a huge upgrade by any means, but there is a noticeable increase in the graphical performance of my setup. Now if I could just figure out a way on how to keep SFM from continuing to crash after using over 3gb of VRAM, I can get more detailed shots created.
With all that said, welcome to 2025.
That's about it for now.
Take care all.
