I'm working on decorating a new creative workspace for myself so I can finally truly get back into my art and first project I have for the space is a new cork board.

Of course, I can't just have a plane cork board so I'm painting it with all these little designs to help inspire me when I'm working on other things.

I'm posting the whole process on my Patreon and will eventually post the finished results, but I figured the good people of tumblr here might appreciate a sneak peak.

Yes the design needed turtles, yes this is inspired by a certain cartoon I am obsessed over.

#The whole design for the board is not ALL turtle themed #Shocking I know #I go into more depth on the meaning behind the design on my patreon #but yes there will be a lot of hidden turtle themes #Seriously people #paint your cork boards #is cheap #is fun #and it helps inspire to do more #surround yourself with creativity where ever you can! #..........yes this turtle specifically is a reference to rottmnt #but is NOT one of the main 4

Y'all I know I haven't posted much here since I got myself set up, life and illness has been kicking my behind majorly these past few months, but I've still been happily lurking on this site and I have to say...

I know no place is perfect, but so far the communities I've found here are the most gosh darn welcoming, hilarious, and generally wholesome I've found online in years.

Like genuinely this has been one of the most positive places I've experienced online in so many years, not just with the community itself but with the site's handling. For example I didn't know how much I needed to witness people loosing their minds over digital cat paw boops until April 1st, but by the stars it was a welcomed distraction from taxes and adulting.

Seriously though, I think I'd forgotten that sometimes places online can just be this happy and chill.

I know eventually I will run into the not so great side of things that everything has, but darn it Imma relish this happy zen I've found here for as long as I can.

#I still have little clue how tags work #like I kinda get it now #but also I like that I'm apparently not the only one that just rambles in them. #like yes #let me just verbal vomit all down bellow my very tailored novel #seriously why did I not get on this site sooner #I'll eventually actually post something #maybe new art #maybe I'll share some of my fav past art stuff #Either way #I'm supposed to be working right now #so gonna get back to that #Y'all are great though!

So ceiling has finally been fixed (enough) and my health has semi improved. Starting to gradually get back into the swing of things JUST IN TIME for my doggo's yearly trim... This is only slightly exaggerated.

As to doggo, he is still chugging along. Not done with his trim, usually takes a few days to fully trim him because its a big ordeal for the old man. Otherwise he is being his normal vexing little mop.

Yes I cook all his meals. No I don't actually want him fat, but the idiot has been a picky eater since puppy hood and I swear I can just not get this dog to stuff his face enough.

#This is my child #This child is an idiot #He will roll over and use his food as a pillow if I don't take it away in time #I'm catching up on owed art #Then might get back to doodling turtles #That's a lie #I've been doodling turtles anyways #Will share turtle doodles later

[fangsofwhite]

So things have been... happening.

I go into more detail on my situation on my Patreon

To summarize though, over all health all around is going better. Not great, but better. My own health is stabilizing enough that I'm not being knocked on my butt every week by a new virus. I am at least able to somewhat function again. My family who contracted covid is recovered and has started doing more to protect and manage spreading that junk. My doggo is... alive. One day I'm expecting him to pass in my arms and the next he is like nothing happened. He is still an elderly little man with arthritis and a bad heart but he is... I guess still going? Idk he is already pushing 3 years past his life expectancy so I guess I just spoil him as long as he is still chugging along and isn't in anymore pain then a bit of arthritis that we can manage with meds.

That's where I was a few weeks ago. Then the ceiling collapsed.

Nothing was really damaged, just a lot of dust, but yeah part of my apartment ceiling came down. It took a bit to address as well, but as of right now most of the repairs are done with a schedule to have it fully fixed by early March.

I'm... REALLY SCARED to say things are looking better. Every time I do, something more seems to happen and it's been like... over a year now since I've been able to just exist without something else burning in the background.

I'm just going to take things as they are now, and research whatever sacrifice or mystic dance I need to preform to appease whatever cosmic gods of chaos I've angered so they will just chill for five minutes.

#Have I mentioned that I still don't 100% understand how tags work on here? #Cause yeah #Still do not understand #Hope the cosmic gods are being nice to everyone out there #Seriously if I need to sacrifice a paper goat or something I will

So... I lost like... a full week and maybe did not realize till like 20 mins ago that today was Friday.

Specifically the LAST Friday of 2023.

Anyways! I did it! I kept the flat fuck train I started till the end of 2023. Will probably not keep this up through 2024, life is getting hectic but this was a fun little personal challenge.

I'm still going to draw this goober, just whenever and not on a schedule cause he is too fun not to doodle. I just need to catch up on other owed art now that I'm finally able to sit at my desk and not feel like death.

...I just realized my horrible spelling in showing... I went to college!

Yeah this is the best I got today. Still want to finish the year in Flat Fuck Fridays, but I am being walloped by a nasty bug.

So uh... this is a relatively accurate recreation of what happened to me yesterday. I had a fairly nice work stool that kinda decided to break at a key point right as my sick butt thought it was up to getting back to doing things.

It did actually launch me. The hydraulics on this are a bit too strong for my weight alone to hold it down apparently.

It's OK now! I have a new chair!... the exact same model so if it fails, this may be a repeat process.... but it's a good chair.

Still sick, now also very sore and slowly recovering and getting back into actually doing things.

#Don't trust chairs #Chairs can yeet #Still a good dang chair though #Yeeting chair took years before yeet #Figured it's worth the gamble #Will just not anger the chair gods again

Seems whenever we have an especially cold Friday, it's now automatically a cozy disaster twins Flat Fuck Friday

#Seriously cold where I am #Also still sick but getting better #Still keeping this train going!! #flat fuck friday #rottmnt #rise of the tmnt #rottmnt disaster twins #rottmnt donatello #rottmnt donnie #rottmnt leo #rottmnt leonardo

Sickness ain't stopping this flat fuck friday train yet!!

#Oh gods I'm so done being sick #But I ain't gonna let that stop me from slamming out one of these this week #flat fuck friday #rottmnt #rottmnt donatello #rottmnt donnie #At this point I'm committed #Lets see if I can keep this up #Through November? #December?

[fangsofwhite]

Been sick for over a week now and I hate it. Outside of last week's flat fuck and this, I've hardly been able to sit up long enough to do any drawing. Starting to get better but it's slow going and I hate it.

NO idea what I got (can't afford a doc visit, at least tested neg for Covid) but it is just kicking my butt.

#sick #hate it #no energy #fuck
