It's already over

My first post of the New Year! I apologize for my lack of updates and just generally keeping quiet, but after Tjitse died I basically shut down. I haven't felt like myself for the past several months to be honest, and I fell back into a low, melancholy mood. I gave up on life, really, just going through the daily grind because... well, because that ( Read more... )

More important, a big hug of support. And my condolences for both your losses.

Less important. Knowing so little about it that I should say nothing, you are a little better off than last year. Besides the art, you know more about building up from ground zero than you did before. And you know you did do it.

Good pics. The December one is particularly involving.

Good luck!!

Thank you very much. I always appreciate your support. *hugs back* ♡

I suppose that's true, and it is a positive way to look back. Although most of my life has been picking myself up. I think that's why a lot of people facing their lows find me easier to talk to; I keep taking my own blows and getting back up (even when sometimes I feel like I shouldn't bother) and trying to shrug on some form of confidence or hope. I'm trying, you know?

Oh, thanks! I'm glad you like my art. :) Yeah, the December picture was in fact a vent art, me during a low point. Poor Eduardo, he just so happens to be so much like myself I tend to hide behind him.

So do tell, how was your Christmas? I hope your holidays were merry, and that the New Year has been good to you. Cross my fingers somebody made it. Happy 2016 and cheers for something better for all of us!! ☆

So far, pretty good. I have a small garden, and find it very consoling. Especially when, as here in the Southern Hemisphere, the summer is moderate enough so quite a lot of things have survived.

Crossing my fingers for your 2016 - may it be far better.

That's wonderful to hear! And I also find keeping a garden to be very peaceful a hobby, and I'm glad your summer so far has spared your plants. Do you grow flowers mostly, or veggies? (It's funny chatting gardening as we just got hit with our first snowstorm yesterday, something around 30 inches.)
