I was going through my old art photos and realized how much I love this particular drawing. I drew this 4 years ago. I really need to get back to my roots and do pencil portraits. People didn't buy them

I can tell you straight away that yes, sugar is very addictive but let's dig a bit deeper into this subject. About 37 days ago I stopped drinking alcohol and stopped smoking cigarettes cold turkey.

I have not drank in 36 days... I honestly can't remember the last time I could say that. Even when I was at my healthiest, doing yoga, jogging daily I still drank a decent amount of wine once a week. It

I tried so hard to fight it. I tried consuming only vegan protein while battling IC and PCOS, but eventually it became clear that my body would not be healthy if I consumed abundant amounts of triggers.

My friend tagged me in a post the other day where a friend of hers was asking about Steemit. I gave her friend some pointers and gave her my illustrated guide for newbies and to my surprise 4 or 5 people

I know I said I would be returning likely with good news, but I don't really have good news. My urologist didn't give me a cystoscopy WITH hydrodistention and just said my bladder "looks healthy"

I just need to write about it. Selfishly, for myself. This appointment is clearly a good thing. I need to get properly diagnosed but the thing is....It is really, really hard for me to go out and do anything

So, all the ways I thought VR could change my life as a sick person? It did that plus a whole lot more than I could have ever imagined. Before I received my oculus rift I imagined that virtual reality

Today, for the first time in many months I got knocked down with a Tsunami of grief, out of nowhere. I was browing facebook when I saw my friend's profile listed as a "mutual friend" and I clicked.

With all the chaos going on around us right now it is easy to think how the world has lost control but when we ask for the good old days back what exactly are we really asking? I decided to dig a bit and

Never give up. I have had to tell myself this over and over through out my life. When a child and dealing with things no child should like sexual and emotional abuse, going to school where you'd hope I

Huge news! A super, dear friend of mine got me the Oculus Rift + Touch after reading about how it can benefit chronically ill people. I have spent the past day looking up all the different things I can

Just another update on how I am doing. I still don't feel capable of blogging constantly like I used to as my pain is at an all time high and I am buried in financial woes but I do want to keep updating

There really is a difference once you decide to get sober for your own reasons rather than being pushed to get sober. The past 3 days I have been mostly unable to get out of bed due to pain related to

I saw a meme/image earlier from a guy who used google to auto complete a dating profile and made a mockup and loved it so much that I decided to fill out my own. Here are my results. Here is an upload

While yesterday was beautiful and lovely it is not something I can repeat in the near future. I pushed myself too hard. Which is sad because I planned to do it often once I got my hydration pack. Apparently,

So, as my followers know I am battling a disease that has me in constant pain and usually isolated... Update: I found out after the fact that I pushed myself too hard with this day and was in terrible

This is something I shared on my personal facebook but I wanted to share this here too as I love this community. I decided to start making myself chips for non-drinking milestones. I need to take this

Aside from Steemit...It is a very different sort of website. Some of my followers might remember me doing a ton of film reviews which I plan to do more of now that I fell into the rabbit-hole of LetterBoxd.

Yesterday, I made a ton of beads for my dreads. I wanted to share some of the beads I have made with you guys. They are all made out of polymer clay which is baked in the oven to harden. It is a very relaxing
