hey guys, so i was away for a while again and am now trying to make up for lost time haha.
so i was away at my sisters again, i know haha. but i was babysitting my nephews dung the school holidays. and in this time so much happened, it felt like i was there forever.
there will be a lot of dog spam in this blog, some sad and some not, so i'll share the sad first.
i delt with he loss of my sisters dog holly who was a beautiful wolf hound X German Sheppard and a dog i have loved for most of my adult life, she was so beautiful and caring. you would never even guess she once was so skittish because she was a rescue dog then my sister brought her in and gave her a happy loving home, i am very sad that she is gone,but she was 15 and lived a long happy life and we just keep reminding our selves this.
(holly)
Shortly after holly, my sisters partner saw a dog that was on gumtree for a while and in desperate need of a new home, so he bought him so that they could give another dog a chance at a good home. his name is trigger, and he is so beautiful and so playful and loving, he definitely made him self apart of the family instantly and is much happier having a house with land for him to run around on. i'll just include a pic of trigger as well because hes to damn cute not to.
while baby sitting i got back into paining which was really nice because i haven't actually painted in like 2 years, so it was really nice to have some motivation again. it was so relaxing to just sit with the kids and paint, was also easier way to babysit haha, kept the boys quite.
the final picture still doesn't look like how i want it to but what ch'a gonna do with kids water paints, i am happy with the face though, as i've never done a "realistic" face using only shading before and i think it's pretty good for a first try. then went back to my staples of a tree in a sun set haha.
let m know what you think, but please don't be to mean i am very sensitive haha.
other than that at my sisters was pretty uneventful, just looking after the kids and being a house bitch lol.
but i'm now back home and had something very scary happen to me that i need to vent about.
i woke up Saturday morning to my dog having a seizure, he is okay now but ive been waiting 3 days for results and still have one more day to go, so its been very stressful. he has also either hurt his neck during the seizure or has something wrong with his spine, which also may have caused it. i just feel utterly helpless and i hate not knowing whats going on and seeing him clearly uncomfortable, but at least he has painkillers.
luckily this all happened on the day i was paid so i had money to deal with all this unfortunately it cost my whole fortnightly pay and i'm so stuck and not sure how i'm eating for the next to weeks, but my boy is okay so it's all worth it.
then on top of all that i've been so stressed over wyrc (my volunteer work) as the dates for the youth forum were putting on gets closer and were still so far behind, i'm meat to only be doing promotions and have a group to work with, but honestly it feels like i'm doing everything, i keep reminding myself that i'm the oldest and they're kids but still.
i've had a friend of mine making promotional posters, which everyone seems to have more idea for the design that need to badded even though the event is like weeks away now and i need to finish them, i'm dealing with making up "show bags" for the forum goers, which is very confusing when no one with in the groups respond to messages like ever, so you never really know what is going on.
on top of that i started to take over and find "speakers" for the forum because that team wasn't and we needed them, but after i found our last person and confirmed them, they start looking for someone else to do the workshop because "they didn't know i found one" (even though i sent out emails and messages stating so.)
at the end of it i guess i just need to think of it in a positive way like, if i can make it work in a team like this, i can make it work with any team. and hopefully it shows my initiative to get shit done, and helps me weasel my way into working in that company or any company haha.
dealing with all this in such a short amount of time has left me very stressed, and the best house mate in the world @jaskola cleaned up the bath and decorated it with a sun flower, lights and candles. so i could have a nice relaxing bath, which definitely helped a lot. so shout out to her for that, honestly so blessed to have met her, thanks sg for that one.
now to end this here's a pic from said bath ;)
