Life updates
Posted 2 months ago- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Keeping this one sorta short since there’s really not a ton to update on. I started going to physical therapy this last month because I lost mobility in my right shoulder, I couldn’t even raise my arm up and drawing hurt really bad. Not that it really stopped me from drawing lol, I’m too stubborn for that.
I suppose the injury from the car accident I was in a year ago finally caught up with me. It started out with pain when I woke up and then slight jolts of pain in my shoulder and forearm when I moved a certain way (I thought it was maybe must muscle cramps at first, because i’d experienced them for a couple months) but then when it didn't go away I talked to my doctor and she recommended I see a specialist. Went in for an appointment with PT and they said they’re pretty sure I had previously broken or torn my AC joint during the accident and the scarred tissue was causing my shoulder to sit off of where shoulders are supposed to sit.
I’ve had a lot of improvement since then, in only a month I’ve already gained mobility back and I’m not in nearly as much pain thanks to muscle relaxers and anti inflammatories. They also had to scrape my shoulder to break up the scar tissue underneath (which I don’t recommend, that sucks.)
They said they’re hoping I’ll be able to be released after this month, but if not I have a second month booked with them as well. *sigh*
Anything new happening with y’all?
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Thinking out loud…
Posted 4 months agoI’ve got a million thoughts running through my head and I kind of just needed to write them down somewhere! Figured If I posted them here then I could get some feedback too!
So as I said before, I’ll be quitting my school job. My last day is the 16th! In just a little over a week! Im so excited and nervous at the same time, but mostly just excited. It’s been a long time since I’ve felt this motivated!
Some things I need/want to work on when the school season ends: (in no particular order and probably not all at once, of course)
- Creating both a SFW and NSFW Carrd account so people can more easily keep track of my socials and order commissions
- Updating my paypal information and cleaning up my invoices
- Opening an online shop, most likely through Etsy
- Working on products to sell through Etsy, this will include physical badges, buttons, stickers, i would like to sell a kitsune body pillow cover as well as both a kitsune and pickles plush, I’d like to make prints available, kitsune boobs mousepad, trading card sleeves, maybe an acrylic standee? (These are all just ideas, feel free to suggest anything you can think of!)
- I’d like to tidy up my Patreon (that I never made public) so that i can properly open it up! On it, i want to have some exclusive art (most likely fanart)
- I’d like to create a webcomic that will most likely be available through my patreon
- I’d like to create a discord server dedicated to commissions and host raffles through it
- I’d like to start streaming my drawing process and maybe chat with people while i work or host charity events C:
- I’d love to attend a convention or a fair and sell products/prints there c:
Idk i have a lot of big ideas and obviously some of them are like “whaaat, you’re crazy if you think u can do all that” but idk, dreaming big is what keeps me going!
Let me know your feedback or if anyone has any suggestions/experience with any of this stuff! Im kiiiinda clueless in the “how do i make a product” department so i could definitely use the help!

🌟 I’M QUITTING! 🌟
Posted 5 months ago- - - - - - - - - - - - -
Heya everyone! Long time no chat, I know, sorry! Work has been keeping me insanely swamped with long shifts and few days off and I haven’t had as much time to focus on having an online presence or on my art.. so… I’ve decided to quit…
QUIT MY JOB, THAT IS!
That’s right, you heard me, or read me. Whatever.
I’m quitting my day job as a preschool teacher and I’m going to dive head first into a full time art career! Being a full time artist has *always* been my dream. I have done full time art in the past, and succeeded at it when i do, but the only reason i quit was because of financial insecurity and pressure from my family to “get a real job”. While i love my job as a teacher i want more than that. I spend all day thinking about how i could be doing art and about going home to do art. Clearly it’s what my passion is far more than teaching ever will be.
Of course, this is a biiiiig risk for me, but i have big plans for the future too! I’d love to start streaming and ultimately would love to open my own Etsy store so that you guys can have my art.. PHYSICALLY! Prints, acrylic charms, stickers, maybe even a plush are on my radar as of current!
Of course, if things don’t pan out for me, i have backup options as well.
I’ll be taking this plunge after the school year ends (in a month! @u@ !! Wish me the best of luck!!)
If there’s anything you’d care to see from me in the future feel free to leave comments below or dm me or whatever!! <3
I can’t wait to spend more time with all of you!

Insurance Companies….
Posted 6 months ago- - - - - - - - - - - - -
I’ve never met a more predatory business in my entire life. Next to pharmaceutical companies.
Milking the funds from sick individuals and holding cures over their heads for profit.
It’s absolutely disgusting. Medical necessities shouldn’t be locked behind a paywall.
I’m just sick of constantly fighting my insurance company for crap that every rich person seems to be able to easily obtain

Happy birf to me!
- - - - - - - - 🌟Let’s end this year on a positive note!🌟
Posted 8 months ago- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Finally got some good news health-wise! So I figure I’d update everyone on what all is going on with me!
TL;DR: Insurance companies are butts, I’m now on the right track health-wise, and I hope you all have a happy new year.
So for the past 2 months I’ve been fighting with my insurance company because they keep denying the doctors from giving me the treatment that I need. My doctor wants to put me on Ozempic to maintain my insulin levels for my diabetes but shockingly its been hoops to try and get ahold of it, since everyone under the sun is also trying to get their hands on it for weight loss, leaving the people who actually need it in a tough situation. My insurance even had the nerve to tell me “they don't want to cover cosmetic weight loss” despite the fact that I’m not needing it for weight loss, nor is it a cosmetic weight loss medication. The Metformin I was on previously made me SO sick (I have really bad luck with medications, and my body likes to reject them) that my doctor really wants to avoid using that medication again. She tried to get me on Mounjaro but my insurance is INSISTING I try Ozempic first… Only they don't want to approve the Ozempic? Make it make sense. At one point they “approved” it, but when I went to try and get my prescription, the pharmacist told me my insurance was covering none of it despite it being approved. They also don’t want to cover the costs for my cardiology appointments and wont approve the cardiologist getting photos of my heart. They are insisting I try a stress test first but (as before) they wont approve of the stress tests either. My cardiologist and primary care doctor are currently working on appealing those claims for me.
In the meantime, since I’m stubborn and refuse to sit around and wait for someone else to fix my problems, I’ve decided to force myself into a serious health kick. I’ve been on a low cholesterol, low carb diet (lazy keto, as my doctor described it). Switched to eating egg whites over whole eggs, white rice to brown rice, more whole grain, oatmeal for breakfast and fiber vitamins. I’ve had a lot more energy due to upping some doses of other medications and getting me on a proper steroid inhaler for my asthma as well. I’ve been working out a bit, going on walks with friends, morning yoga and exercise videos online. Having a goal to focus on has really been giving me peace of mind, and it’s been kind of exciting to see the progress I’ve been making too.
I had a follow up doctor’s appointment just the other day and it turns out I’ve lost 15 lbs. In addition, my numbers are looking a bit better, all except my cholesterol levels which, albeit have improved, are still quite high. My doctor says this really confirms that there’s something genetic at play, and is putting me on a statin to try and get those numbers regulated. Since my grandmother had multiple strokes in the past it gives me a lot of reassurance knowing we caught this early.
I’m just really happy to hear some good news for once, and even though this is something I may end up dealing with for the rest of my life, I’m happy to see that I’ve accomplished something that I’ve genuinely set out to do.
If anyone has made it this far, let me know what’s something you’ve accomplished this year that you’re proud of! Even if it’s something as simple as having cleaned your room! I hate New Year’s resolutions, but reflecting on the previous year is never a bad thing!
Love all of y’all! Have a happy new year!
Keep on fighting!

For anyone who needs to hear it right now, focus on taking care of yourself. Don’t focus on politics, don’t focus on drama, put down your phone and close your computers. Focus on positives, focus on healing, focus on what makes you happy. Treat yourself, drink water, eat good food, and know that you are loved, you are beautiful, you are valid, and you are seen.
Self healing is not selfish.
Finding friends and a community to help secure those thoughts can help more than anything else right now. I love all of you, and if anyone needs to reach out for someone to talk to, know that I’m here and my arms are always outstretched for you.
I wish you all peace of mind right now 🌸💕

🌸 More Health Updates 🌸
Posted 11 months agoI feel like my heath has gone from bad to worse in not that much time 😥
This is mostly just me ranting for myself because I’m tired, so feel free to disregard this journal, but everyone’s been so nice and supportive so I thought y’all might like to hear what’s going on too.
Went to some doctor’s appointments and had to meet with a cardiologist because now they’re all worried about my heart, they found out i have genetically high cholesterol and my numbers are very high, so they’re going to have to put me on some new medications for that and I’ll have to have regular specialist visits. I also was just diagnosed as diabetic and my new medicine for that is really kicking me in the pants. I’m hoping the symptoms for that will mellow out with time but right now it’s just oof. It feels like my stomach is being torn up like crazy and I’ve been getting really nauseous and dizzy. On top of it I also had to do a sleep study since my doctor thinks a lot of my other problems may be related to sleep apnea. This is all on top of my current medical issues already. I’m just so sick of seeing doctors at this point.
As a little icing on the cake, my wonderful father decided to freak out on me out of nowhere and threatened to cut me out because he was “sick of me always having medical issues” and told me to “stop faking being sick”. Said he didn't even want me, all that good stuff. He’s never believed in doctors and always thought I should be praying for healing instead, says the man who relies on recreational drugs for his own healing.
It’s just all a big mess, but hey at least it’s spooky season? I wanna go to an haunted house really bad…
And maybe between all this medical stuff I’ll lose a little weight before my little sister’s upcoming wedding?

insaneartistJust a little health update 🌸
Posted 11 months ago- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Hello! If anyone has been wondering where I’ve been, my health has been a bit “meh” as of late. I’m alright, but I’ve had a bit of trouble drawing and focusing, my hands have been very shaky as well. I have a lot of health/medical issues (particularly my Asthma is what gives me the most trouble and I have a really hard time maintaining oxygen levels) but sometimes I go through periods of being really sick with asthmatic bronchitis or really lethargic and exhausted from oxygen loss. It makes it a bit hard to keep up my stamina especially when it comes to things like exercise and working.
I’m currently working towards getting things back under control, but it’s a process just like everything else. I hope I’ll be able to get back to drawing and doing fun stuff like before. Currently my hands are so shaky and my arms feel like they have heavy weights on them, so I’m struggling to so much as doodle.
I just hope everyone else is doing okay! Let me know if any of y’all have any fun holiday plans coming up soon!

Posted a year agoWelp, over a week later and I’m still dealing with this nonsense. Doctor has requested i try some physical therapy for the pain and prescribed me a muscle relaxer. Pain is on and off at this point, which is super annoying. If i owe anyone art just know you’re still in my line of sight, I just gotta get back into the swing of things.
Peace. ✌️
