I'm thinking not having the energy to draw is a combination of that and travel. I take the bus home and some times when my husband can't take me I take the bus in. On those days I'm out from 7:30 and get back home at 6:30pm. Or out by 8am when hubby takes me. I have chronic illnesses -

Pepper (my 2.5 kg dog) is going for surgery this Friday. I'm trying not to claw up the walls but I'm so nervous

Yo how do you manage working fill time, finding time to unwind, do chores and draw like?! How long does it take to get used to the schedule this is harder than expected :')

Full week almost done I'm so tired :')

Internet still down :') I have phone data which isn't bad but damn since Friday it's been down We better get compensated for this especially if hubby has to use his mobile hotspot to be able to WFH

What a week this has been. First: job is going well. A generally good place to work as long as you get on with work. Just on day 2 of me being in, got invited for a work do, and honestly, yeah they went all out But we had a power outage friday that lasted most the day. No internet for 2 days :')

🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️ One milkshake to rule the boys, one milkshake to find them, one milkshake to bring the boys and in my yard to bind them 🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️

I don't do these often.

The official start date is on Thursday:) thankfully I gave a few days to finalise things. Also having 2 days in and a break is better for me anyway so not to get too overwhelmed with the new process. How exciting :3

Research has shown that dogs are more intelligent than we think. But not all of them.

I was offered a job finally!!

I have gone through hundreds of applications since May with no luck then get called twice this week for an interview tomorrow, and another for Friday Goodness Strange whiplash lol Temp jobs but in a sector I'm desperately trying to get in. So it will eventually lead me to permanent. Wish me luck!

It took nearly 2 weeks for this stupid chest infection to clear up enough that I didn't feel like utter crap 0/10 Don't recommend

Reposting for REASONS!!!

A very Happy Birthday to one of my best friends, @rayematthews.bsky.social ! Hope it's a good'un! 💜💙

Happy birthday to the most wonderful, beautiful and downright sexy partner anyone could hope for, @rayematthews.bsky.social

Birthday is on Monday! I'd dance but I'll be 41 and my back hurts

Chest infections are no joke holy shit

More rejections. Some informal interviews. Nothing after. Ghosted Trying to stay positive Applying for jobs in itself feels like a full-time job. I've had more than a handful where they ask for CV upload, then input it again. Mandatory, or application won't be accepted, and a cover letter required

I need to wear my glasses more. I'm taking on sewing work I'm needing it to do unpicking, pining but was spared of needing it when doing pattern making. But I noticed my eyes getting tired easier than before. This was just for reading or long computer use 2 years ago I'll be 41 in 2 weeks :')

I left the back garden door open I was in the living room catching up on messages In the corner of my eye I see s black cat. We don't own a cat. Me, my dogs and the cat look at each other for a second before I get settled Chaos ensued Cat ran away, took our scrub daddy with them 10/10 Sunday

With all this free time I'm sewing for money I had to retire from sewing work due to job forcing overtime and refusing to approve time off I didn't realise many local alteration shops closed, so there is a gap in this skill. Honestly between this and commissions I'll be okay if it remains steady

The more details I fill in, the more hilarious the thumb looks in comparison. Had me chuckling like an idiot

I've been made redundant, I'm opening commissions while I job hunt I'll be adding more to my Ko-Fi as well and will keep you updated as I go! ko-fi.com/rayedrawsart If you want to show support another way, donations and sharing is super appreciate it! Look at the thread below for discounts:

Why not? Could be fun

In tonight's D&D, undue time is spent talking about coffee, Cat shows that he's a horrible liar, and Cognac decides to test the group's animal-handling abilities. XD @lotharhex.bsky.social @rayematthews.bsky.social @metallixbrother.bsky.social
