Hey everyone! I've been a bit under the weather from the get go of March. Just mostly period and cramping horrifically. So I've spent most of my time just sleeping or trying to treat the symptoms. Just getting rougher and rougher every time it comes around it feels like.
Feb was a pretty productive art month, I'm pretty surprised! I didn't expect to load up so much into the zip folder. There were so many pieces of art, I actually thought I'd like to re-post some with my feb update. Just to highlight some of my personal favorites from this month!
The weather has been a bit wicked around here in WI for Prov and I's chronic pain and nerve flares. But we did get some good news, our insurance made a small adjustment and they will start to cover my chiro visits. Only problem*? I have to go more often!! (☆▽☆) Such a wonderful surprise to find out we can finally go for regularly treatments without burning through all of our savings. Fingers crossed the good luck carries over.
Prov has been having a really hard winter, now that the season change from winter to spring is just starting he's been hurting a lot more. I've been spending all of my time and energy trying to keep up for caring for him and tending to the house hold. I am completely exhausted and burned out, I sure hope spring comes quickly so I can begin to exercise again and get some energy back for the daily grind... Right now every spoon is spent on prov/care taking.
Hence why I was surprised I managed to get so much artwork done, just wow! I've been trying to make more time for myself to just draw and practice for fun since I'm feeling so depressed in other aspects of my life. Being able to sit down and zone out on some completely random artwork or speedpaint has really been helping me. However I am over working my drawing arm and hand, it's been very swollen lately. Ouch. So maybe need to dial it back just a bit... :C sigh
Right now I am currently struggling with a lot of medication changes and adjustments. I am also still seeking treatment for my jaw/teeth pain. I'm not very mentally present IRL or online while I'm burning at both ends of trying to treat prov and trying to keep up with my own treatments.
I am at a point where I am struggling online significantly and would like to probably start reaching out for help. I am admittedly very skittish of most online interaction any more which is a huge bummer. But I think I need to try and figure out if I need to hire a personal online assistant who can help me with collecting commission information, putting it together on trello cards, and handing me work/projects as my spoons come available, dishing out orders and updates to customers. It's a lot like trying to... hire someone to be my cat herder and I'm at a loss of how to begin. Not like I can afford to even pay anyone at this moment, especially while I'm so disorganized. All I can think to do is offer my creative services to them in trade until I am organized enough to see where the money is coming and going and try to budget paying them for their services. slumps back into seat. I don't really have anyone to talk to about this and I'm just overwhelmed. Sooo if this sounds like an interesting job for you to do, hit me up. I would be game to try and haggle services for any help.
In the mean time... just trying to survive one day at a time here. I am not actively avoiding anyone, just honestly so exhausted and running out of time and energy every day. So keep nudging me, I'll be trying to keep up. But at the moment, please understand my head is under water.
