somewhat back on track.....

Well, the last few weeks have been weird. Mel's been off and on ill. I've had my first (probably second) non-optical migraine and well, we are dealing with things. The A&S project for Estrella is moving forward, though not on schedule yet. Lots to do in the next month. Items for crown should have been finished this weekend and I felt the need to just sit and read which is bad because that is all I ever feel like doing of late. Speaking of which I finish #2 for the year which was "Festive in Death" by JD Robb. It was fun and schmoopy and just what I needed. I really do read to be entertained, I like happy endings even if the main story has some angst.

Some things I've been reading have finished up. I'll put them in a separate post since some of them are bit...odd...I ready pretty much anything so yeah.

Hit the last sunday open drawing at the downtown tucson drawing studio before they move to where Ted's Country store used to be. It was good and I've almost filled up an entire sketch book. I need to get more pencils and another one very soon. Though it looks like I won't be back until the 15th or so since no sketch this coming weekend, Crown after that....

Had a great time on Saturday night at american_knight's wrestling thing. What a good time. Watching new fans see the spectacle was faboo. You can tell some kids were born in Texas!

Its just me and Ben this week till Wednesday as Mel goes to Utah for a work thing. I have plans to hole up in the studio and finish stuff and that will be good for timelines. If I can get all of the crown stuff finished by Friday I will be good to go to basically loose myself in Estrella A&S stuff without too much worry. Lots to do but I'm sure me and swordmage can handle it.

I also have a plan to get back to my fic I was writing. bewilde and I have been discussing what I was doing and I need to scale back things a bit and pace things better. Everything I wrote is fine I just need to move it around a bit. I also have an idea for a second part to A Proper Drink which is more Thor or really, him acting like Ivan did with mead that one time at Southern or Estrella with me. It will make sense later, I assure you.

So, 2015 is supposed to be about self care for me and thus far I'm failing at that. I'm taking care of family stuff, handling some adult things we've needed to do (insurance etc) but not taking the time to do things for myself. So, I hope next week to get back to the gym, get my eating back into good control and just take better care of myself.
