I feel like I haven't had a lot of time for anything. I haven't really touched my twitter, barely on Gaia and haven't really been able to doodle. :/
Just been too busy. But there's good news! We finally got approved for the apt we want to live in, so we'll be moved into that by next month. Work is picking up and I'm really wanting this open management position! I have an interview sometime this week.
I got to go to Distant Worlds on Valentine's day, and Nobuo was there in the audience...we sat third row from the front, it was amazing. They even did the aria from FFVI. My life is like 5% more complete.
Also, AESRJEKLJDGJGgjsdfkldsjr Ouat and TWD! So addictive ;A;
Anyhow, time for bed...hoping to have some free time to doodle and stuff, soon!

Obligatory Annual Journal Post 2016
I think I'm going to save some photos to my computer and remove them from dA. I look back at these past several years, and wonder why I treated this site like I would facebook; way too personal and uploading stuff nobody really cares about. It's really more acceptable on some social media sites, but not so much deviantart.
Honestly, though, most of what I've posted isn't worthy of even my scrapbook. My Instagram is better curated by comparison. I am only a hobbyist when it comes to photography, but at least most of my more recent nature photos are decent. As far as art goes, I just don't have what it takes to improve significantly. I will al
Happy 2015!
I still have a lot to go through as far as moving things to my scraps. I've only made slight progress as far as making art, and I definitely haven't made anything that is gallery-worthy. It always ends up in the forever-WIP-pile. But, just to doodle is important. I just can't seem to shake the hyper-critical attitude I have towards my art, and instead of being helpful it sets me way back. I'll keep trying, though!
My birthday is coming up on the 17th and I know Steve is planning something. I'm excited to see what he has in store! I think this year will be better than the last. Despite some difficulties, 2014 was a very good year for me. I wi
Gallery Clean-up
I'm making progress!
I moved quite a bit to scraps, deleted other stuff, and reorganised some things. I'll keep working on it throughout the week. Its very odd to look back and realise how disorganised I was. I still am in many ways but as I've grown and gone through adult life, everything has come together a lot more. I've also become a lot healthier mentally. I think that in a lot of the content I had my mental state and quality of life were reflected in what I made and what I posted.
One thing I've noticed in my old gallery is that I posted a lot of personal pictures that were better fit for facebook or a photo album. Some weren't even t
Slacking
I haven't been drawing or painting much lately. I should be practicing to improve but I am generally not inspired. I feel like I've made it habit to just give up before trying.
I've been focusing on Steve, the kids, the cats, blogging, and gardening, which isn't a bad thing per se...I just feel that I need to make room in my schedule for art before I lose too much interest. Although, I don't think I could ever stop loving art. I just question where my passion for it went.
Anyways, I'll start doodling in an art journal to help. I'm hoping this will become a better habit instead of being unsatisfied with what I make and being overly critical
