Not related to art or anything but just need to vent.
I need to have some steady pay, I'm tired not being able to drive anywhere or go on hikes... So I'm looking for a part time job. I'm being very particular about details of it.
However, my husbands employer as of November hasn't been paying on time. They sent out a notice about some audit and applying for something or other and so thanks for being patient.
In the meantime, my son who also works there, has already received an overdraft due to being paid late and it's looking like he'll end up paying another... Payday was this past tuesday and so far no pay.
Christmas is in 2 days and we would be so fucked if it wasn't to ... i don't know divine intervention.... maybe this is why I've been so insistent on raising our own food. Luckily we have chicken and turkey and beef in the freezer that we've raised and then either had processed or processed ourselves. We also have eggs.
The point is if it wasn't for that we'd be eating what for Christmas. cereal? top ramon?
Then there is the medical savings account I set up earlier this year. I have health issues and spend a nice penny out of pocket for treatments ect.. co pays ect.. that may be cancelled and if so, I lose all the money I have sitting in my account with them.
So I'm looking for a job when not even that pay is steady and reliable anymore.
Times like this it's hard for me like society. Just one more thing of fucked up issues with people to add to the ever expanding pile of shit.
Anyway, thanks for listening..
Rowdy wanted to play and Ronin was too busy sniffing and peeing on everything....
Not sure I want to share on fb. Lots of changes happening, some things in limbo. Been a roller coaster for a few weeks now.
Today was a magical day in the pasture! Rowdy was having the time of her life doing zoomies. Watching her race around, and tail flying, was pure joy.
Seeing her play reminds us of the simple pleasures in life. If you need a smile today, just picture her galloping, full of energy and spirit. 💖
Hi, I just rewrote my about page. Wrote it last week and lost it. 🙄

I'm looking forward to playing around in this space and getting to know you.
I know I've been ghost on here... honestly not a fan of the pay to play model and you probably haven't missed much. But I'm breaking my silence for something worth it.
I entered The People's Artist Competition..
It's a legit competition supporting The Art of Elysium, a nonprofit that brings art programs to communities that need it most.
You can vote for me once a day for free, you just have to register first. No purchase necessary, no credit card, just a quick signup.
If you want to see what I've been creating and throw me a vote I would genuinely appreciate it. A share would mean a lot too.
Not going to spam you about it but I did want you to know it exists.
My short trip to Vegas showed me something I hadn’t fully seen before, my drinking hasn’t been about fun. It’s been about escape. Not from people. Not from family. But from a place that feels like it's slowly suffocating my spirit.
In Vegas, I laughed, danced, wandered, felt inspired… all without a single drop of alcohol. Why? Because the environment fed me instead of draining me.
It wasn’t the booze I craved. It was aliveness.
Now I see it clearly: when the soul-starving stops, the self-medicating does too.
