First of the month comin' around and I'm so jazzed to be at this point. Outside genuinely feels like spring with the birds and the bunnies coming back full force, and all the snow has melted off the ground so it's bright and sunshine-y! It's been giving me like... ALL of my energy and motivation back. I always forget how hard seasonal sads hit me until the spring rolls around again lol
Today I didn't do a whole lot of art, but that's ok! I made a new section on my website for the new YCHs, and then added the new ones to gallery so that they're available for purchase. Opened up commissions, paid bills, queued up art posts, squared away all the bits that needed squaring away, the whole 9 yards. I think it might actually be better for me to make sure my 1st of the month tasks fall on a Monday because I'm infinitely more motivated on Mondays. I also did the monthly raffle and this month's winner is:
Truemac! Congratulations!
I've got a BIG workload this month and a good section of it is gonna be cramped into just a few weeks because I'll actually be out of the state from the 16th-19th. I'm actually going to go visit my boyfriend for the first time and I am so excited and also so scared because holy shit I've never been to Wisconsin, all I know is that they love cheese. I need to brush up on my Wisconsin lore or something so I don't sound foolish! ANYWAY plane tickets and rental cars aren't cheap so things are gonna be tight on my end, if you're looking for a commission the funds are going to a great cause this month (me eating cheese :'D)
I still don't have any larger projects going on. Right now I still want to keep things sparse and focused on just getting commissions turned over and making new YCHs. I have a lot of fun with them and they're not nearly as large a time investment as other things, and it guarantees that I'm able to bring my own creative flair to the table, which makes me super happy. I'm kind of thriving off of it right now, ngl. I'm HOPING that things will start to turn and I'll have more energy soon, but to be honest I've been in housing limbo for the last 2 years, trying (and subsequently failing three times) to buy a house and at this point I'm just fucking tired. I keep putting my own life and my own wants on hold because "oh, I'll be moving soon anyway" but that shit blows. I don't want to do that anymore. I have some new things going on in my personal life that've got me excited and I actually want to put some energy into that, and making my own life successful rather than just my business. It's been hard to look at myself and see me making any amount of money and going "No, that needs to go in the house fund" and never actually doing anything for me with it. So this month I'm testing the waters; I'm gonna go see my boyfriend, I'm gonna eat cheese, and I'm gonna try to make sure I have a better work-life balance because boy howdy I sure haven't had one in a while.
I'll talk to you guys soon, this week I plan on getting lots of good art done and am excited to share it with ya'll <3
