Another year goes by. I've been very quite in recent months and here's why.

I've been focusing on paying off depts, including my car loan and two credit cards. So, I needed to put all personal projects on hold until it's all situated. The good news is that I should have them all payed off in a few months, or at least by summer. Then, I can really save up and commission again and pick back up my projects. The Toby comic is underway, slowly but surely, which brings the next reason and the biggest one the past couple of months.

You see, I've been diagnosed with ADHD when I was little and had suspensions that I had Autism Spectrum Disorder, level one or high functioning to be exact, but I'll need to get officially diagnosed. Though, I'm pretty sure I have it, which answers countless questions from my whole life. Anyways, even though I was made aware of what they were, I've never really fully grasped what they meant. What were my triggers? How do the affect me? How to manage some of the traits that interfere with my personally? I've answered a lot of my on questions and made so much progress. I was very busy with keeping track and tasking notes on my traits, and I've realized that without proper tools or knowledge on what I have, it affected my art making negatively, especially with my ADHD side. Thankfully, I've learned ways to work with my conflicting brain and developing good habits to improve my personal productivity, both for my day job and passions, and they seem to be working. I just need to give myself credit for all the progress I've made for myself more often, and I have good friends who are always with me. I'm always appreciative of all they've done for me.

Once one card is paid, I'm going to reward myself with a commission and will be able to focus less on how much money I need and more time on my passion projects. I'm feeling like some weights are finally lifting. There's still more to learn, still got to keep up with this "marathon", and keep experimenting ways to make my days much easier. Stay tuned for more ^^
