These past 6-10 months have been some of the worst I’ve endured for a long time. Now I’m so depressed and I’m so scared that I won’t be able to cope. I don’t want to go into too much detail, but a lot of this started with sudden family emergencies. Those emergencies lead to funerals, which lead to further sadness. I had a significant breakdown about my own life afterward and went through a sort of identity crisis. A lot of my time was taken up with a new responsibility. Finally it started to feel like I was reaching the end and things were looking up. I was gearing up to sell my stuff at a local Fourth of July event. But that’s when I was hit with the news that one of my main emotional supports was suddenly moving far far away. This was a person I’ve known for 20 years or so and whom has always lived a short distance away. We hang out constantly. Now that’s gonna be gone. And I don’t know anyone else that close by who knows my that well and who is so readily available. It hasn’t even happened yet, but I feel so absolutely alone. I was only informed of this yesterday, but I’ve spent every moment since in deep deep sadness feeling unable to even do the things that would normally make me happy. I’m so scared. I don’t know what I’m gonna do. I don’t know how I’m gonna handle it. I’m not used to feeling so alone. I made so few irl friends that I can count them on one hand without using every finger. Not to mention I’ve been so secluded online that I’ve had to rely exclusively on my local friends. I’m terrible at making new friends. But now I don’t know where to turn to. I don’t know what to do. I just want to know I’m not alone…

Hey guys. Sorry for the silence. I still intend to resume my higher levels of activity here. But I encountered a rather large hiccup in my personal life that kind of took away most of my time. A lot of things happened starting in late September that kind of derailed my life temporarily. As many people already know, I have a younger brother with severe health problems. I wont get too technical, but I'll say that he was basically born with only half of a heart. There aren't a whole lot of people alive with this condition so no one really knows what his life expectancy is, so my family has always had to live with the knowledge that things could happen to him at any moment. We take it a day at a time. Well, last year was a huge scare when he wound up getting defibrillated on two separate occasions. Eventually we decided to go ahead with a heart ablation and those episodes seemed to resolve. That is, until late September. My mother noticed he wasn't feeling well at all. He was

Hello again. First off, please allow me to apologize for vanishing off the face of the Earth. I was in a very bad place for a long time. But im trying to rebuild what I let decay, and that includes my presence here. Im not sure how many of my old followers and friends would still be interested in my stuff. Especially after abandoning everyone with no explanation. Buy I apologize to those I hurt and thank those of you who choose to stay. I’m not sure how long it will take me to readjust, but I want to post some art as soon as possible. I have tons of pictures accumulated during my silence. I’ll try and space out my posting so as not to bombard you with too much at once. I also want to say that I now make a living selling painted wood crafts like birdhouses, coasters, magnets, earrings, etc. I also still make stickers and acrylic keychain charms. So the more interest i can generate towards that, the better. I’ll get more information up when I can. But I am always taking orders and you may contact me for more info. Speaking of contacting me, im afraid I will be purging all of my unread messages. There are simply far too many of them for me to handle. I welcome you all to repeat anything I may have missed if you wish. This doesnt mean you cant contact me; I just want to make sure you understand that I may not have recieved your last message to me and you may have to repeat things. Hopefully I can adjust quickly and can post and chat regularly like I used to. Frillythingy AKA Coffee Jitters, The Dogglephin, that weirdo who draws weird things sometimes
