Goo morning readers, viewers and fans. I hope you are all doing well this Monday morning. It has been just over 10 days since my last post on this blog - and while I personally feel an explanation isn't necessary, I'd still like to give one.
First and foremost, this blog, along with my fiction writing and YouTube videos, are not my money maker. All the creative things I do, unfortunately, are side gigs don't pay my bills. And being an adult, despite me not acting like, requires me to prioritize the responsibilities I have. I work 5 days a week at a physically demanding job for 9 hours a day. I'm sure you can see how this could leave an individual drained and yearning for the sweet release of laziness. Which, of course, means I only ever get the chance to do YouTube/blog related things whenever I manage to find down time or on the weekends. Unfortunately, I also have to prioritize my mental health, which means I have to make free time that allows me to recover from my daily stresses. I'm trying to be better about being more creative and productive but life... Happens. Things come up that deter you away from any and all motivation. Depressing events that leave you in a recovery period and require you to push off certain things that you'd otherwise be doing.
I'm grieving. I'm going through the process. On Friday, July 12th, 2019 - I lost my childhood friend - an adorable dog that we named Rosie.

We adopted this cute pup 14 years ago, when I was just 10 years old. For all my life she had been a great friend - one that gave me comfort when I needed it. I have thousands of memories that I can recall and could put here but I'd prefer to keep those to myself. I lost one of my best friends and she will be missed. I'll be grieving her for a little while but hope to resume creative content soon, hopefully within the week.
Thanks for any and all understanding. And may my best friend never be forgotten and rest peacefully. I love you, Rosie. I will miss you.
