My journal entries have been far and few between and art has dried up to nil. I want to thank everyone for sticking with me and staying my friends. I'm not sure when art will be posted again. Hopefully, sometime later this Summer. I have a lot of creative ideas I want to do with my art and actively start drawing a comic strip again. It's been a few decades since I gave one a serious go.

The reason I haven't been posting is for a few reasons. The main one is that I've been sick to one degree or another. I think the incident back in October is related. The last 3 months have drained me though. Started with a weekend of what I thought was a stomach virus, which led to weeks of waking up in the morning feeling nauseous, to a week of intense pressure in my abdomen, culminating in another visit to the ER for sharp pains in my left side. Both visits to the ER found nothing, despite tests galore.

I know I shouldn't feel guilty for not wanting to do anything outside my work day, but I do. I've gotten further behind in my side projects, both paid and personal. Today I feel 95% good. I hope tomorrow and the tomorrows after are as good so I can get back to participating.

I don't know why I'm telling you this, but I guess I needed to vent today.

Thanks for listening ... um reading. Keep up the great art.
