Wow Hey I'm Back, also BABY?!?
5 months ago
It's been a minute hasn't it???
I feel like I needed to take a sort of impromptu break from the glut of social media and posting and furriness that is the online community just to lurk a little bit. But, a lot has happened in the past year and I felt it was high time to send out some updates concerning my situation here, and how things are probably going to go going forward.
I was mostly inspired by the fact that fursuiting tech has FINALLY gotten to the point where there is a bori-specific fursuit base out there and I was able to order one. Elbi will live again!! For those who weren't aware, I retired her last iteration (Elbi 3.0) about 3 years ago. Being without a fursuit for my heartsona for so long has been soul crushing, but I wanted her to look JUST RIGHT the next time I went for it, and I wasn't quite there yet. Luckily, another maker beat me to the quick, and the base will be arriving in a month or two hopefully! I'll be announcing the maker and providing an in depth review of the base once I receive it, and documenting my work on it.
This all happening in conjunction with something equally if not MORE exciting...My new role as mom!
I am currently pregnant with my first baby, a boy. Butterscotch, my mate and I couldn't be happier.
We've wanted a family for SO long, but were never sure if the financials added up. With the clusterf*ck that is the current political climate as well as economics, and I'm not getting any younger, we just said f*ck it, and we'll muddle our way through like most parents do anyway.
We're in a pretty good spot right now, we have a house, 2 cars, and sufficient income as well as a roommate helping us out with a bit of rent while he saves up for a house of his own. So I feel like we'll be ok. Little nugget is due this July! So time is running out to be any sort of productive with the fursuit side of things.
I'll be staying home, naturally, and I'm excited to get to spend all that time raising our baby and seeing all those milestones, as well as squeezing in time for premades and continuing with my craft on MY terms.
I'm equally excited to see Elbi's return just as I enter this new phase of my life. She'll look different and feel different, same as I will. I hope once the baby is a bit older we can start doing cons again as a family, and I can introduce him to the wonderful world of furry which is why he even exists!
2025 is totally the year of transformations. Looking forward to all of it!
