What's Up

TARPS OFF BOYS
I feel like I owe my followers and commissioners a bit of a 411 on what's been happening.
2014 was a gongshow. I took a leave from the furry community and my creative outlets to work on a few things, mainly my education. Spent a lot of time looking for a better job (was working at the airport), and once I got a better job, I spent a lot of time working towards making myself a dependable asset. Long story short: I'm now in a much better place, much closer to home, and I'm very happy with what I'm doing. I'm back in a factory. It's a little place, not the world-class facilities I'm accustomed to, and the owner is cutting me loose to help bring it up to an actual reputable establishment (implementing health-and-safety, Lean manufacturing, creating preventive maintenance schedules, etc). I have a manager who was hired just before I was, who also came from big-ticket production facilities who I'm working very closely with to raise efficiency and help the company start making some real cash flow. It's a lot of fun, and I'm looking at a possible promotion to production supervisor, or even plant manager, in the coming months.
I also finished my 4th class power engineering course in October, at BCIT, and I am getting the paperwork ready to write my government final. Hopefully, come March, I'll be a fully-ticketed (red-seal) power engineer. That is going to open up a vast number of doors and avenues which I'm really excited about. Feels like my life is finally coming together.
Jess and I are doing amazingly well after a year together, and we're looking at buying a house in Mission. It's a small town about 20-30 minutes from where we live now, and property out there is very low priced. We're hoping to get some acreage for her to expand her canine boarding-and-training business... and a couple extra bedrooms for when we decide to bring a little wolf-dragon into the world. :3
That's pretty much it. TL;DR: got a new job that I love, I have time to work on art, music, and friendships again, and Jess and I are looking towards the future with happy vibes.
On a side note: I'm going to be phasing-out the amount I rely on Fur Affinity for hosting my creative works in favour of a much nicer, smooth-running gallery: Weasyl. I'm not going to abandon FA completely, but I will be putting more of my focus on maintaining my Weasyl gallery. So if you guys wanna keep up with my works, please please PLEASE come on over and give me a follow on my Weasyl gallery.

That's it, folks! Thanks for taking the time to hear me out. I'll be booting up Photoshop and Livestream to be working on some commissions and new artwork. Keep an eye out!
