The Long Waited News... (March, 2026)
Hello everyone (and welcome to March, by the way!), hope you're all having a lovely day! I had mentioned before that I had some news + updates on myself and the future of what I'll be doing not only here, but offline, so here it is:
What happened?
Last August (2025), I had sustained an injury at my job caused by the workplace itself. My lower back was banged up pretty bad, and for a solid month I wasn't able to stand up straight nor could I sit at my desk for prolonged periods of time. I truly felt like everything I was doing was coming to a halt, and I knew this would impact me greatly. This was followed up by ER visits and many more doctor visits to come, a lot of this coming out of my own pocket because my job refused to acknowledge what had happened.
You may have noticed there was a dip in my activity on ALL platforms; my time was occupied with doctor visits, a shifted work schedule ("light duty", which again, my job would not compensate), and soon enough, legalities. Some days I was unable to stay up for prolonged periods of time due to my injury, where I had intense pain and lost feeling in my lower body, again, further explanation as to why I haven't been so active.
Some days were better than others, and then some days it felt like it would never get better. But I KNEW I had to keep focused on what was to come, especially when I had gotten my attorney involved with this case. The months passed, and after plenty of battling and settling...
I am no longer with my job as of late February, for the best of reasons. I had won the fight!
What happens now?
Realistically, I am still in a bit of recovery. I have gained a LOT of my mobility back and have even been able to go to the gym again, but I'm making sure I am not exerting myself to a state where the injury comes up again. But BELIEVE me, I feel MUCH BETTER than I did 6 months ago. I can comfortably work on art again and do the things I love, which leads me to saying this--
Since I am no longer with my job, I will be dedicating my time to here for the time being. This will essentially "replace" my job, meaning I get to focus more on what I love to do and share with all of you. Which also means I have a lot of catching up to do, and I thank you ALL for the patience with me during this time.
This also means that I will be opening up commissions very soon, and will have a new sheet to handle that when the time comes. I am REALLY looking forward to serving you all in that regard. Might even let Gosling out of the PC. (Whoops, did I say that?)
I am still adjusting a bit to a schedule for this, and will more than likely create some kind of routine/schedule just for this and my offline life. Regardless, my work and effort will be here now rather than my previous job. This means, if all goes well, I will increase my output now that I can focus on here once again. Also gonna grow CT at some point. (You're welcome ;P )
Why wait to tell us now?
Because of the legalities, I couldn't really make this public until it was all said and done. I also didn't want to give any false promises in case something happened (court dates were postponed a LOT). I also kept it on the down-low so that everyone wouldn't be worried about me too much as this was happening; I strive to make my community a happy place, and while I GREATLY appreciate everyone who has been concerned for me, I wouldn't want to publicly broadcast my major struggles unless it's when they come to an end and is full of positive merit.
I wasn't going to let this stop me from doing art all of the way; I wanted to keep doing what I loved despite what happened and the lack of time I had so I can continue to give back.
What do you love the most?
You. And you. And you too. And you and you and you and YOU. Being a mom is cool, too- (cough T)
Final thoughts?
This has been a WILD 6 or (Nope) months, and while I'm glad it's all over with, I constantly had you all on my mind. I knew that once this was over with, I could focus more on all of you and continue to do what I love.
There will be lots of new changes I make along with learning new things, so I am eager to do that when the time comes.
I'm excited to get started on this new chapter, and to do many, MANY more great things for all of you. I hope you'll all stick with me, and remember that I love ALL of you. See you all very soon!

Been here for a long time and will stay, glad you won this and wish you all the best. Will also say to take care of yourself staying at a desk for prolonged hours specially with an injury of this severity is extremely bad, be sure to get plenty of rest some light exercice(talk to your medical professionals before doing any) and just enjoy your life. Love from lebanon.
