Long time no post.
This journal is kinda addressing that - what I've been doing, where I've been mentally / health-wise, etc.
Basically, I've been in a motivational rut when it comes to creativity for quite some time after quitting my part-time job. I got through the riding lesson session right before COVID hit, and then EVERYTHING including my long-awaited surgery was cancelled. So I've basically been sitting on my ass at home up until this point, with only visiting my friend's barn to help out once in a blue moon when she could pick me up. I got into playing a single video game for a little while, spending basically all of my time doing nothing but playing that game for a couple months.
Now, things are opening up a bit again. My dad has agreed to drive me weekly to my friend's barn, which is slowly helping me get back in shape / get my mood back up. That being said - I am WAY out of shape. I feel super weak.... and my sleep disorder isn't helping, since I'm having episodes of sleeping like 15-20 hours at a time, resulting in me feeling like total ASS once I'm up again. When you sleep that long, you haven't eaten, you're dehydrated, and what you HAVE eaten has sat in your gut for too damn long. Not a great combo.
Despite all that, I've got... some vague motivation to create again, as well as somewhat do chores at home. Which is improvement. But, still... I'm unstable in my interests, and in my mental health. And it's a big pain in the ass.
TL;DR - I haven't had interest in furry / art things for some time. I'm mostly focusing on working with horses IRL, and playing a dinosaur survival game when I'm stuck at home.
