This has been the first time in a long time I was actually able to keep Brighid, and Her flame, in mind for my entire shift. I usually forget halfway through, and don’t accomplish what I set out to.

During the past couple of weeks I’ve started on various craft projects again, and recently, I’ve decided that I want to learn to draw Anime style. This is the first time in a year I’ve actually been excited and motivated about my artwork, so today I did a couple of rough figure sketches, just basic poses. They’re far from perfect, but not too bad. The idea was to draw different views and try to get the anatomy and proportions right (I have a lot of difficulty with proportions.) I was finding out what worked and what didn’t.

I didn’t do as many sketches as I would have, because I ended up going shopping with my Gram. So I got some family time in there too. I got a new mattress pad for my bed; hopefully that will make it easier for me to sleep without waking up in pain, yay? lol I had some tea and sticky bun with my Gram and then came home.

My mom gifted me with a beautiful silver sun pendant with flowers in it, and I wore that as a reminder. I think I’ll do that every shift from now on.
