Red dragon painting I just finished.
Gouache, watercolour and ink on paper.

I was feeling sad that my boyfriend is so far away and I’ll likely not be able to see him for the season because of weather and my cat came to comfort me. ♥️

Happy Halloween!
This year I am The Mist!

One of the younger woman I support at my shelter night job called me Aunty and I’m all in my feelings about. It was like a bucket of water on this burn out. ♥️♥️♥️ It’s all worth it!

I got to go see my bestie, niece and nephew at their house today for the first time in a year! It was so nice to be able to visit them again without worrying.

Spouse was trying to show me a thing yesterday about how important it is to be bored sometimes because important things happen to your brain when you run out of stuff to think about and I'm sure that's real but also

Run out of stuff to—?

Think? About?

You can do that?

"Perimenopause"
--clinical
--what does that even mean
--people look at you with pity 👎

"Preparing for the Ascension"
--mystical
--what does that even mean
--people look at you in fear 👍

I’m so tired.
I still have 7 hours of work to do and an entire tattoo to finish drawing to finish. Coffee will be my savour I think.

Korn!
Teenage me is feeling so fulfilled!

Adult me was so excited to be in the same room as that microphone stand!

Hotels booked for my birthday adventure! I’m very excited!!

A miracle has occurred in this day! I spelled ibuprofen correctly, first try without spell check!

I’m thinking of starting a new dating profile that says something like:

Ethereal crone, eldritch bog hag looking for people sacrifices to the old forest gods.

And then driving them to the forest for dates.

Just for fun…

One of my clients: “Who are you rooting for at the Super Bowl?”
Me with a vacant smile: “haha… sports teams…?”

I like to light a candle at when we first get snow

Blessed Imbolc.
This was my first time celebrating. My roommate is Celtic pagan and asked for a table covered in candles. I delivered!

Decided to match my eye makeup to the morning snow. ❄️❄️❄️

I’ve decided to just come out with it. My pronouns are it/its/that. Or any. I don’t entirely care what people use but I wanted to put that out there.

Working on a meal plan and trying to remember what I like to eat. I spend WAY too much money on ordering out

I went to the pool with my Guides and I am no longer allergic to chlorine, I put in a dress my roommate gave me without washing it and had no reaction to her soap… I think my overly sensitive skin may have been another physical reaction to the stress of my previous relationship.
