**A Retrospective on the Year**

I haven't been very active this year, and for that, I'm sorry.

2025 has been the most life-changing year of my life. The most significant event was the loss of my father in the middle of the year. He had dementia, and caring for him was a 24-hour job. My mother is also an alcoholic and is showing signs of dementia.

After his passing, I had to handle the inheritance process. Fortunately, it proceeded without many issues.

Now, I have more time for myself. Life is turning for the better. I even met some wonderful people at a furry convention, and I've gotten into sport climbing, taking much better care of my health.

I'm back to drawing and have a room to turn into an art studio. I'm also learning professional photograph.
I'm finally in the process of obtaining my driver's license. With all this, next year promises to be full of fulfilling activities, and I intend to be much more active.
