=D Well, I hope this finds you all well, I'm happy to say that today has found well for us here, I woke up about 6-7ish but, under a house imposed agreement, we all agreed not to get out of bed before 8 or 9, so, I just enjoyed snuggling up with Jeri and got things in order

Gift giving, we'd already been up the night before and each gave one another a single present to open, so, once up, we sat down and got to eh unwrapping, I'm happy to say among INDEED receiving my new tablet, I've also nabbed a Combiner Wars Ultra Magnus, which is just all kinds of awesome, like he's leapt out of hte pages of my MTMTE comic and came to life in plastic form <3

Some cash, which may come in fairly handy soon, Inside Out on Blu-Ray that we're gonna watch later and one of the presents I opened up last night, Walking Dead Risk, a game that we ended up last night playing all the way until 2am before we called time, I won on territory and before any horrible things could be said that would be remembered the next day XD


But there's a lot more to be happy about than just the holidays, today is the first Xmas in a long while I've celebrated without a cast of some form, so I've been happy to get stuck in with the festivities and all

And even before that, I didn't even tell you guys about the anniversary two weeks ago! =B Me and Jeri kept it quiet, ended up that we didn't go for a holiday this year, but INSTEAD, we've bought my parents a week away next year, in hopes that we may instead enjoy the house to ourselves and make our own budget holiday, whilst also handily picking a present for Xmas for my mom and dad, lol

Nah, the Anniversary was quiet, a new outlet had opened up, me and her hit the restaurants, then a bar afterwards, not exactly my normal hang, buuuuut, it was fairly laid back and nice and cosy, which was just what I wanted, and I think Jeri kinda knew that, she still has to wait until part of HER present next month, so we'll see that soon <3

Not to mention, finally as you may or may not have noticed, there's been a good amount of updating on the page of late, I've got time more now to art what with no casts and with something very special finally up... so before that announcement?

I think it's time to show...

You guys have waited far beyond, and something I'll be revisiting next month as far as resolutions go, but, I've already mentioned that I'm going to offer some free arts as an appreciation for what happened with real life and so much else getting in the way of the art you guys were promised in return for donating to my drive

May this hang here until the lists completion and we'll be able to see extra doodles for you guys thereafter =D


Buuuuut, that's a much old story =B


HERE's the big news

I went and told you guys in the last journal that there was a partial reason for the break in art before I finally began churning out new pics and doodles, well, today as I type this and wait for the next meal, or more likely, type this between being hollered into the kitchen to help - and watch Arthur Christmas at the same time (awesome Xmas movie <3) - now is the time to tell you guys

On the one hand, it was a case of some presents took too long <<

A few pieces of art won't appear on the gallery, but, maybe one or two MAY be shown in the next few days, between comics and... well... again, you'll see, it took me a lot of time to divert into that


On the other? This one's the big one, that whilst this year, myself and Jeri went and faced rejection when we got bounced back from adoption, well, I promised it wouldn't be the end of the story and it's not

While I don't have anything yet to say about us having a new member of the family, I CAN say that I took advice from some folks here and now, am officially signed up as a Big Sister =D

Soooooo, you know, I might be a lil busy here and there, but I'd like to think I'm going to be practising a bit more moderation from now on and this IS going to be me learning a bit more responsibility, as well as hopefully a bit of practise for when next we apply to adopt once again~

I promise to keep you guys up to date, and let you know about my new little sister in the new year as and when we first meet! =D

But until then? May your days be many and merry for the holiday season's time remaining <3
