Lil update here |3;;;
🕑 Added 2022-02-17 23:19:14 +0000 UTCHey there everyone
You might have seen the lack of anything on my end here. I'm ashamed to say that I hit a little of a problem.
After taking 2 days of break after the last comic pages (I was feeling a little burnt out of work since I had been working everyday pretty much from start to end |3;;; ), I worked on something small and then before I could work on a bigger reward, we had to change our sleeping schedule so we could be up early for a doctor appointment for hubby.
2 days of going to bed 2 hours earlier each time and waking up early as well, we ended up super dead at the end of that day.
Cut to me pretty much these last 2 weeks barely sleeping. I don't know how something as small as this could mess things up, but I went from sleeping 8 hours to sleeping none one day, 3 on another, 2 on another, 3 again... every day feeling like thrash and not wanting to do anything |3;;;
Now I have been able to sleep 6 hours the past 3 nights, but still feeling pretty bad tbh. I managed to finish one reward now, posting it after this update. But this is to apologize for really the lack of art on my end and no word in between. I really wasn't expecting for this recovery to take this long.
Because of all the time wasted, I'm gonna have to go straight up to working again on the 4 comic pages of this month in a row now xD;;. I might not be able to finish them if this lethargy continues, but I'll try my best of course.
So yeah, as always thank you for the patience and sorry for the inconvenience.
Love ya'll, take care!

It's true, if I'm stressed/rushed it might make for a poorer art attempt, but I just feel so useless these days xwx

Thank you! Talking about health tho, I had the booster shot this friday and oh gosh it gave me such a terrible saturday, full of fever and bad feelings xwx Also an hour of sleep to boot! Being healthy is hard, lol

Oh gosh, an early job, I was on that grind before trying to be an artist full time. Had to be for the lunch shift AND night shift at the restaurant 5 and a half days a week :v. Not for nothing I wanted to change my lifestyle a little, lol. Honestly we have been thinking about getting medicine to sleep and sad to say, but we got recommended this medicine that someone else here is taking with melanin. I say sadly because they are pretty big capsules (i'm terrible at swallowing pills as is!) and because apparently this thing is mostly to help you fall asleep for anxious/depressed folks. Not to ensure you sleep a certain amount. Got them today and read the pamphlet to find that stuff out!, lol. I just had one, so wish me luck! Also I wish I had a friend with sleep powder, that sounds more of a natural sure bet than medicine =w= <3 Thank you for the recommendation!

I wish it was as easy as making someone fall asleep xD <3

You are allowed to take a hiatus every once and awhile for your own health and personal life, the better place the char is in the more it shows through the art we love

Take your time, your health is more important.

Alternately, find you some grass-type friends that know sleep powder or spore =3

Hey Vitrex, just wanted to drop in to share. I been there, bud...Sleep isn't something that has ever really come easy for me. And getting a job where i gotta be in the door at 8am was tough as all hells, for a night owl. I'd reccomend picking up a bottle of Zzzquil at your local store in the medicine isle...or for an easier time, any allergy pill where "diphenhydramine" is the active ingredient. 1 dose of the 'quil is the exact same dose as two of the capsules. Non-habit-forming, guaranteed five hours minimum of rest. and i mean *good* rest. might seem silly, but helping get the schedule back in some sense is worth the couple bucks. ^^

Dude your and your hubbies health come first. Its okay to take a break for a bit. Don't rush all the comic pages and burn out again. Just take your time x

Don't make me come over and make you sleep XD
Vitrex
It is! Doesn't help I'm a light sleeper in general xD;;; Hope you get better as well! <3

I'm trying ;w; I am not doing anything weird, but I just woke up every time and just stuck in bed for 2 hours trying to fall asleep unsuccessfully. With me giving up and just getting up afterwards |3;;;; It suuuuuuucks, lol

Sleep is hard, I'm also having issues myself... I hope you feel better soon!!

Take care of yourself and your body! That's the most important thing! Comics and stuff can wait, it's not so important <3
