This week is not my friend. I'm working on a video project for my aunt that has to be done by Friday afternoon. That by itself is almost impossible. Then we found an abandoned kitten that will take up a lot of time because he needs bottle feeding. Then I had to take almost all of yesterday and today to go out of town for an immigration appointment with my hubby. Saturday I have a face painting gig at a local festival which I cannot afford to miss- we desperately need any income I can make there because we are way finfncially behind. Yesterday an abscess appeared on my gum and has been causing me horrible pain. I haven't been in this kind of tooth-related pain in years and oh my goodness, it's almost literally making me sick to my stomach. Why did this have to happen NOW? Now, when I have so much to do in the span of one week?! I don't know how I'm going to get everything done and deal with this pain.
Some life updates
So, even though I've checked in a bit, I haven't been very active here in a long time. I realized that I never posted the news that my grandmother, for whom I was the caregiver, passed away in January of this year. I'd spent over four years taking care of her (and for the first year, my grandfather too). I've made peace with it now and I'm ok. I still think about her often. I've been unemployed since then, and I've been trying to do commissions but my focus and energy levels are so erratic that I can't feasibly do that for steady income. With prices rising like they are I'm going to have to find a job to support what my hubby brings in. But until I do, I might start offering outfit adoptables here to help a bit. I haven't done much designing and I miss it. Even though I'm unemployed I still seem to stay busy. I'm still managing my anxiety and depression as best I can, but just like my energy levels its up and down. I'm working on art commissions from twitter but its slow going.

I'm alive!
Hey folks! I just realized I haven't posted a new journal since Christmas D: I'm alive, just staying busy. I'm more active on Twitter these days than anywhere else online. Sadly that means my messages here pile up and become overwhelming... so please forgive the lack of comments on deviations. I promise to get to them all as soon as I can! :heart:
I love y'all and I hope you're all doing well :hug: If you have time, do drop me a comment below and let me know what you've been up to!

I'll crank up the prayer dials to 11 for you on this one. I personally know that what you're going through is no. Fun. At. All.
