And another begins... Hopefully not so dark this time. I am currently writing this from the computer room of our new home (well... we've been housed since Halloween, but the computer access didn't happen until recently). Apartments, but much nicer than any place I've really lived. But ya know the best part? We're no longer homeless... No, I'm dead serious. No one knows the trauma this has caused us, and as much as I'd like to update everyone on what's been happening for the past year, I still can't get myself to think about a lot of it without becoming extremely angry, or wanting to cry. But we're healing now, and although we're still struggling to get an income, things should be improving soon. I'm not holding my breath though... just taking one day at a time. Eventually, and probably little by little, I'll be doing little bits of writing on my experiences... I don't know yet what form they'll come in, but for my own health and sanity it needs to be released. Eventually I hope to educate people on the shit that's going on in this country concerning the lower class of citizens and how the homeless are treated. But still, how remarkably compassionate some can be can make up for others' cruelty. This also I plan to write about, in due time.

I need to look through my files and see what I can post here, but I have still been doing SOME art, though fighting with depression means I haven't done much in this year. But those who've followed me this long know I don't have much to show anyway. When our income situation is fixed though, I'll be getting back into drawing and sculpting. If I can get pictures of them, I can show some jewelry I've made as well. Right now the bulk of what I REALLY want to do is on hold until we get our stuff from storage, but I'll be posting a little here and there. As for the writing group, it's still on hold until :iconmoxiemora: is able to get back online (it's a bit of a long story, but once we get internet in our room, she'll be back).

And yes, we're still together :) We've been through so much shit, and although we get on each other's nerves at times, we can always work things out. I'm blessed to have her, that's for damned sure.

Alright, that's it for an update for now. Letting you all know that, as long as some other catastrophe doesn't happen, we're on our way to getting better and closer to a stable life, I'll be posting some kind of art at some point, and blah blah blah... We're still alive, and that's mainly what I wanted to say :laughing:
