I just wanna be closer...

Quotes you don't care about:

"Now you can lean on me
And that's more than love, that's the way it should be
Now I can't change the way you feel
But I can put my arms around you
That's just part of the deal
That's the way I feel
I'll put my arms around you."

Hello, dA~

So we've finally reached December...a week in already. Busy and a bit overwhelming for me already. Painted ceramic ornaments, baked cookies (with tons more to do), went to a weird bake-off where all the cookies kinda had no flavor...and still not even remotely close to being done. Spent most of the night decorating and the kitchen is waiting to be done. All I want to do is lay down and read or play a game honestly but this stuff isn't gonna do itself.

(Speaking of games, I got Persona Q and it's really rad and adorable and I'm dying from the cuteness everywhere. I really just wanna adopt Kanji. Can I adopt Kanji, please?)

I'll be honest, I feel off lately. Lonely, discouraged and somewhat hopeless? I think it's just stress from a couple of things, the holidays tend to bring these about but I'm doing my best. That's all one really can do. Trying to keep perspective and focus on the good things I have instead of the bad, and there's a lot of bad believe me. But I've got a lot of blessings to count, even if sometimes it doesn't feel like it. It's amazing how the mind just wants to zero in on the crap but...well. A work in progress.

How has everyone been doing so far? I know this time of year isn't everyone's cup of tea and there's some hardships and bad feelings here and there but...I really do wish you all the best no matter if you like Christmas or December or celebrate something completely different.

I apologize too for being slow with my commissions. I got the sketches done but with my awful mood lately I want to give them my all and not just carelessly finish. So I promise I'll get right back to work once I stop feeling like an emotional/psychological truck hit me and left me in the metaphorical road.

It's hard but...we'll get through it.

I'll get through it.

Take care, everyone. Be safe this season.
