Hello!

1 min read

Good grief it has been a while. I don't know that I know my way around this website anymore.


I promise you, I am still around and kicking, but I feel terribly ashamed about the state of my inbox and such.


I have been doing a lot of computer things because of work. I haven't been doing a lot of art... I have some, but not very much. It's been a bit of a challenge to try to draw consistently. Perhaps I should try more.


On the other hand, I been doing a lot of crocheting and that. I learned to knit (badly). I've picked up the basics of weaving... I find I enjoy yarn crafts a fair bit. I still have to assemble my 4-shaft table loom though. ...That might be a weekend project.

Would people be interested in pictures? I don't know what's interesting these days...


How are you all doing as of late?

Hello

So, hi! I've been doing things.

This summer has not been great. I sprained my wrist, had my gallbladder removed in an emergency surgery (do not recommend), and said goodbye to Niji (just yesterday).



So, while I do have some artwork which I will post eventually, I'm just dealing with a lot.

Fluffy pain in the butt

3 min read


I would like to introduce you to my lovely cat, who is now very nearly 13 and a half years old.

sunbathing by kabocha

He's a sweet cat who loves ham, sunbathing, and taking long strolls in the yard.

He has also rather recently decided he likes eating just about anything he can get his paws on, meaning we have had to lock up anything edible (packaged or not) away from places he can get to them. 

...Also he's lost about a third of his body weight, on top of getting sick all over the place.

All of this has become rather concerning, and so we took him to the vet, and of course they had to run tests, because this behavior and symptoms screams "hyperthyroidism" (or worms, but it's not).

oh lookit my neck by kabocha

His test results came back perfectly normal. And now he has a shaved neck (because that's where they drew the blood).

So, what we've got to do next is a high calorie diet, and see if he puts on some weight without getting sick all over the house. :'D  Ah, pets.

tl;dr:  My cat is a lovable pain in the ass and has been taking up a lot of my free time - so please forgive me if I'm slow to respond!
(also, if you'd like to help with the old man's recent vet bills, you can commission me!)

I'll be working on owed art again tonight and tomorrow, so hopefully I'll have that done soon, too!
