New Beginnings Update!!
9 years ago
Okay, big post time! Get a snack and buckle in this will be a bit of a doozy, I will try not to ramble.
Off the start; I finally got my internet set up Tuesday. So I can get back to work REALLY soon once the unpacking is complete. Now that I can access everything I can comfortably work and there will be lots of streams coming. I plan to be putting up a bunch of stuff soon. Also, I should be 100% done everything within a week or so. I am still open for commissions I just can't get started back into it until unpacking etc is done cuz my house is a mess and I can't work like that.
Secondly, I have moved into my new place fully, it's a bit of a mess right now, not a productive space yet. I still have a lot of stuff to buy and bring in so that I can complete my place. My living room is empty right now. >.>
Financially it is a tight squeeze but doable. Just keep in mind everything I make here is putting food on my table and keeping me safe and healthy. My rent and internet are fine through the finances I have now but its tight for food so I am gonna have to work my ass hard on here.
Thirdly on a downer note, I am dealing with a death in my family. My best friend and grandmother passed away on Mother's Day. She was the light that set me on all of the right paths when I was young, she even bought me my first sketchbook. She always supported the things I was interested in even if she didn't fully understand. Because it made me happy and because I shared that joy with her. I will miss her so badly. I feel somewhat guilty that I wasn't more present in the last while because of my own health and issues. I worry she died resenting me and that really bothers me. But she knew I loved her dearly, she was always in my thoughts. The grief is really hard on me right now but the deep cry is passed I think, I still tear up from time to time.
Tiptoe seems to be really happy in my new place. He has his witching hour again and he doesn't do the long pained meowing he was doing with the first move. So he seems a lot better. Dunno what was up but I am glad he is alright. He loves the window seats all over my place, loves to watch the outside which he never could before.
I have started cooking for myself more and more every week, it is enjoyable when my legs allow it. My new meds seem to be a lot of help but I do still get the odd sleepy day. My parents bought me a coffee maker though so that helps. :P
As for side projects, I am going to be gunning it with my comic once I am settled because the recent loss has me realizing that I cannot be wasting my life, my time and my health. I need to embrace myself and be the person my Granny knew I could be. I gotta believe in me the way she did.
Also, I want to start a makeup channel on Youtube, still undecided but I have things I gotta get for the setup. But it is a thing I really want to do. Gonna have to do some saving too.
My birthday was on the 3rd but I really didn't do anything. I was horrendously sick after my move with a cold that went around but I am all better now. Just allergies. I did get to do dinner with my friend Nemet but that was about it. Now I am just trying to get my energy and my momentum back.
Just going to take a little time to get into the groove again, but I finally have a full office separate to my bedroom with lots of space. I think that is going to help with my productivity. I should have a video together soon giving a tour of the place. But following my snapchat or Instagram will have more tidbits and shots of the place as well!
For those of you who are new within the time I have been sorta absent, HELLO! I am alive and back and filled with excitement and hope for the future to come. Love you guys and make sure to give me a holler if you want any kinda work done, prices are all on my info page. Social media will be at the bottom of this journal.
TL;DR I am back and settling, work will resume after unpacking is totally done, and I am close. Lots to come!
