Oh boy, where do I start? So many things to write and I'm tired...

This isn't something I was planning to do considering I took a lot of breaks from social media this fall but here we are.

If you saw a lot of my posts then you probably know that this month the universe is giving me more challenges and obstacles to get through, and I'm getting fed up with it.

First with endless dentist appointments.

Been having a problem when it was hurting to eat with one tooth so even if the temporary filler has been put the pain still persisted... turns out it was tooth gum problem the entire time. After that we also replaced a couple of more fillings. Althrough dentist has advised us to come back sometime in February/March as the way how one of my wisdom teeth is growing kinda concerns him, but thankfully all of appointments are over for now at least.

Unfortunately though according to the universe's rules, one thing always should happen after another...

Recently, a strange thing has appeared on my ring finger on my right hand. We were not sure what's that: a lump, blister, infection, whatever this is... this has kinda impacted my process of art and doing anything with my right hand... we've been putting some ointments on it and I was thinking it's helping as it seemed to be like slowly going away, but now I'm not so sure anymore...

After a few days we may have potentially found out what it is: one of blood vessels has popped. Luckily it's not that serious so it should be going away usually in 2-6 weeks.

Unfortunately that pretty much means I'll have to keep using my right hand less until then.

I'm a right hand user and doing everything with left hand like using my computer mouse/phone/anything just feels... weird and I can't. If I want my finger to heal fully that means I gotta make sure to not put my right hand and finger into the pressure.

So I'm making this sad decision to go on a semi-hiatus from social media for a while.

What does that mean?

On Bluesky I'm still gonna boost other stuff, reply to folks and bump my art when I can but I'll be probably doing that twice per day (with the exception of bumping my art). Otherwise I'm gonna be completely silent until then. Art will be paused for the most part unless special occasions. That also means Old Art Saturdays are paused until sometime in November.

I'm still aiming to do at least my Halloween artwork of the year, but unfortunately I made a sad decision to postpone my project/story teaser once again until November. I was originally planning to make it happen on Halloween as well as it's my OC Luna's birthday, but in the end I decided that with my finger situation postponing it again would be for the best. I'm really sorry. I'm genuinely disappointed at myself for keeping on doing this. I really hope this is gonna be the last time.

For other social media/sites I'm probably not gonna be active at all until I fully return and I don't have much energy to keep it up for now with a lot of stuff happening.

I'm gonna do my best to be active on Discord, but replies may be really slow or just... no replies at all, depends on how I feel. I'm also gonna try my best to be active on Twitch (just watching other people's streams) but I may be just lurking in streams for the most part.

Hopefully sometime things will finally calm down and I can fully return to be a silly bunpaca on the internet, make art and make you all smile again. But for now, I gotta step back.

Thank you so much for reading this until the end.

Hope to be back into swing of things really soon.

Be sure to take care of yourselves as well.

I'll see you later.
