Heh heh... Halloweiner
3 weeks ago
So the aforementioned art dump didn't quite happen. Well, didn't actually happen. No quite about it. But hey, it'll be soon! I mean, it's been over a year since I shared anything. And I got stuff to share. So... soon-ish?
It's our birthdays! Mine and Elora's! We didn't know when we started dating that our days were only one day apart. So yeah, big celebration together! Well, not too big. Like with everyone else, our resources have been more than a bit tight. Regardless, we plan on having fun and celebrating and eating stupid tasty food from and spending the evening probably watching B-movies and talking about life, the universe, and everything ^^
September was rough, as was the start of October. There were some dark times. Like, really dark times. As the weather grows colder, the dystonia grows worse; more cramping, more twisting, more shaking and Parkinsonisms. It was a sharp contrast to August and before when I was walking better and doing yard work and feeling better than I have in years. Lemme tell ya... the depression was... not good. Couple that with the anniversary of my aunt unaliving herself on my birthday, the loss of dear friend last year to cancer, Elora's mother just being diagnosed with cancer, having to cut off and go even further no contact with certain family members, and, well, just the state of the world in general, I went on a terrible nosedive that I almost didn't pull out of.
But I'm still standing. I'm still here (much to the disappointment of some, I imagine xD) And I hope to continue on for as long as I can, sky and stone willing. Wish me luck :)
I'm still trying to restart my old hobbies as well as trying to start up new ones. I really want to get into crocheting, for some reason. Might be fun to crochet sonas for my friends and furry family members once I get some decent skill. Just gotta practice and study and study and practice. And hopefully that'll open up some creativity pathways and I can get back into writing my stories and offering up writing commissions once again.
Just a short(ish) update this time around. Hope all ya'll are doing well and staying safe. Remember to hydrate, be kind to yourself, let your loved ones know you love them, make new friends, all that sorta jazz. Keep hope, have faith, shun apathy; there's more light in this world than darkness. I love ya, folks. Be good to each other :)
Love,
Your friendly neighborhood Oakstone
