Hello all you lovely artsy-fartsy people you~ you're all wonderful. You may or may not've noticed that I've been a little scare lately! This is due to many, many reasons that I swear are legit - most of you know I like to donate a considerate portion of my day to a computer or other sort of screen, so naturally it wouldn't go disrupted in said pattern without reason.
1.) I'm moving. My entire family out of our house of eight years - longer then any of us have ever lived in one house and I'll be very sad to leave.
Currently I'm packing to move all my immediate things to a good friend's house where I'll be staying when I come home from Europe. So, rushing about, cleaning, packing, sorting, the like. All my longer-term stuff will be going up with them, so thats where the sorting comes in which is terribly time consuming. Then, upon coming home, onwards to thinking of moving to Victoria! Yay! x.x
2.) I'm going to Europe. Flying in three days to France to meet
! We're not in France long, only about six days or so before crossing over to England where we'll be staying for most of the trip. I'm
SO excited. Oo I'm also mostly done packing for that, but still making last minute arrangements before my flight and all other things involved with travelingto another continent. Its exciting, terrifying, amazing and just completely awe striking at the same time. Its all I can do not to piddle. x33
3.) Rajah, my cat of only just under two passed away about a month ago. This doesn't take up any time really - more my emotions. With thoughts of leaving my home for the last time the day I'm catching my flight and returning from travels as not coming home, but visiting makes me very sad indeed. I feel it was an unjustified death - as many would normally who grieve. But my girl was hardly two. And despite living in a rural area, went the same as Rosie. Hit by a car and there was hope when I found her, with a very badly broken leg that it was just that - but no. I called my boyfriend, who dropped everything at work to come get us and take us to our local vet and stay with us. But there were internal injuries that couldn't have showed up on any x-rays and she died in the night. Pain free at least, because of the morphine. But if I'd known, I'd wanted to have taken her home to die, instead of leaving her confused and alone in a cage. Thats the second animal to pass thats been close to me in two years... and I feel awful about it. We're burying her on the property we need to leave tomorrow.
..Anyway. Aside from the heavy stuff, thats where I've been. I have a June submission for the 12 x 12 Challenge - though it'll be late as theres simply no time to post before I leave for Europe. Sorry for the downer in the last paragraph guys. Peace. <3
