I’m not really into celebrating my birthday, but I guess today is the day I put on my online accounts… It is different from my real one for security reasons, but close enough to hopefully not come off as dishonest to those I feel comfortable telling.

Personal updates:
I’m hanging in there despite all the madness that has, is, and probably will come…. I’m still liking the new job I started about a year ago now as a field technician for a construction consulting company. I got other certifications like my Soils 1 certification now, and I’m working on other specialty certifications like Stormwater/ Erosion 2 and DOT stuff while I still figure out long term plans.

Art stuff:
Slowly making progress on more ideas… mostly still trying to fight that cycle of when I have the time I don’t have the energy, and when I have the energy I don’t have the time. Been trying to figure out how to balance improving quality and improving speed/ efficiency of getting more done.

I am sort of warming up to the idea of doing commission work as a side hustle… my main income manageable for myself, although things like the economy and the weather can make the construction industry very “feast and famine”.



I’m still officially “not” doing commissions though… I still haven’t worked out the logistics to properly do it.



Anyways, I’m still here and more than happy to share ideas and inspiration with anyone who wants to. I hope you all are doing well too on this rollercoaster of life.
