Wow the Summertime went so fast!
5 years ago
Hey there guys,
this is mainly the journal to let you guys know that I´m still alive and safe.
Most of the Summer went with different kind of cleaning job gigs, but there was few celebrations last week that gave me some good difference for the normal routined life (with Covic-19 edition lingering on the background).
Firstly on 4th of August was my 11th anniversary in Furry Fandom and Furaffinity, even if I haven´t done so much arts like in first few years of being the fandom, I feel like I have been in this fuzzy fandom so long time now x3
Also on 8th of August was my youngest little sister´s wedding, so it was perfect timing to go visit my family and spend some time with my mom, my sisters and my nephews.
The wedding was really great overall and it was really great honor to be there, originally there was some plans that I would do the Father´s honor at the church (aka walking on the isle with the bride to her husband and this was planned as surprise as our Dad passed away several years ago), but in the end, bride decided to walk the isle all by herself.
Otherwise, I know that it´s really annoying to say, but I´m hoping to get back with drawing more and getting the request I have been slowly working on and after that start working on few other asked requests I got some while ago. This doesn´t mean that I´m doing open requests, so I have to ask for people who have asked the request art to be patient with getting progress with it.
Mainly the reason of being so silent art wise, is that alongside with work, I really want to reduce the overwhelming amount of online time and being just not doing anything or feeling drained at home.
As the first wave of pandemic stuff started back in past Spring, I had to cancel my gym membership as I really wanted to wait until it´s 100% safe to start doing workouts again. Also I haven´t been doing a lot of workouts even before the pandemic started, added to that it was a waste of money to keep it for now.
Also I think that this upcoming Fall and Winter will be mostly chance to get work with some stuff like getting sleeping habits better, find ways to workout at home without need to get barbells or those stretchy bands that´s been highly advertised on Instagram for example and reduce my social media time (which is really hard as my life is mainly in social media with really small section of irl contacts outside of work.. Hopefully I can find the balance with offline and online time in general ^//^)
One thing is for sure and it´s that I´m working on with my Animal Crossing island´s 3rd renovation project (And honestly, this game is also the main reasons why you haven´t seen a lot of art or heard from me on FA ^//^) and I have been posting alot progress photos all the projects and spots I have been done for my island, if you guys wanna check those out.
Anyways, in short version of this journal, I would say:
"I´m fine and healthy, but also many stuff happened during Summer that has kept this lion busy for giving more FA updates"
3:12pm add-on:
Also I want to give my HUUUGE thanks to all the faves and watches I got past weeks, remember to check out the original artist´s work as well for pics not made by me and if I haven´t thanked you for watch personally, I´m really sorry for that *looks embarrassed*
So yes, until next time..
Wash your hands, practice social distancing, wear mask and stay safe guys!
Your friendly lion,
Jake
