Just a Shire horse seeing what's going on from my stable door :)

Not going to get much sleep tonight, so anxious about starting new job tomorrow :( Been driving trucks for 19 years yet I feel out of depth? - I guess because new company and their ways etc... *shrugs*

Any handy I.T bods on here able to help? Facebook on my PC is really slow. Chrome and Firefox. Tried the usual stuff on google i.e delete cookies, turned off extensions etc... but its only facebook that's like this? All other websites lightning fast. Scanned for virus etc.. all clear, help please :)

When its hot I'd rather sit in a plant, pretend I'm a banana and watch the world go by. 🎨by me of Lapres, my very long noodle. Two colours in this one only - hot pink and electric blue - overlayed with different opacities to make the different values of purple.

Marker-ish illustration. White background with a slight pink shade - a very long dragon (long neck and even longer tail) sits on a Banana plant (Musa Basjoo) watching a blue bug crawl on one of the leaves. The dragons colours are white, face of purple, and her belly is a purple colour with blue scale lines.

I've slowly been working on reference sheets again. Yesterday my Neuro appointment has explained a lot about why I struggle to illustrate. Still, every time I finish something, I feel like Ive hit a milestone. This was 2023, but still very proud of this one though it took ages @ellis171.bsky.social

Got a job to tide me over, van job delivering custom staircases. Deflating applying for jobs I have the skills, for the company to reject. At a weird crossroads in my job life :/ I don't want to be stuck as a driver all my life, but...the call for back on class one is still there, it's in my blood 🫠

♥️ While I should have posted right after CFz, I wanted to say thank you for making it a lovely experience. I've finally have my answers, know why my body broke in the ways I did and am finally seeing the right professionals. Better late than never I suppose.

Not getting into the groove of new job, so before I worry myself into more stress I'll finish on Friday. I want to change career, talked with Lappy & she's supporting me making the leap :) - Job fair booked, 2 jobs applied for (still open) so hooves crossed I'll be back to myself soon :)

A weird mixed yet oddly satisfying feeling today handing my notice in after 18 and half years 😐 Off to pastures new soon but after Friday will enjoy some time off 😁

I've had a resin stand of Ellis on my desk for ages and only just found the artwork hidden away after lots of searching.....so you can enjoy it here too :D Artwork by Lapres :)
