*snuggles raine* Thank you! It's been hard as heck for me too with the PCOS and it's hard now even still but it could make the difference between getting pregnant and never getting pregnant. It's a pretty good fire under my butt lemme tell you what! I have slimfast for breakfast, a protein shake for lunch - a veggie patty and a big bowl of broccoli for dinner. Some nights, I have greek yogurt for after dinner or something. That's it. It sucks, lol. I finally gave up soda too - do you shop at walmart? They have these "clear american" soda's - no caffeine, no sugar and they're pretty good - they have tons of different flavors. Maybe try to replace some of your soda with something like that? Caffeine is bad for trying to get pregnant too so..ugh. I wish I could just get drunk and screw in the back seat of a car and get pregnant (not really) like most people but WUDEVER.

This is a stupid o'clock long video but I got this program a few months back. It costs 3$ a month, big bucks. Anyhow, it seems pretty great! Fun thing is that it has copic markers - brushes, you know. It seems very intuitive. I just have to go and stop trying to make every stinking thing I do a masterpiece. It's hard but i'm sure you know that. How do you position yourself? Like, I have my monitor directly in front of me but far away so there's room for the tablet as well. Is that how you do it too? I can't seem to get comfortable with it. :\

Alan's grandpa is in the hospital again. He's not doing good - had a test and they told him his kidneys basically aren't working and so he's had to be put on emergency dialysis. This is a man who doesn't like to leave his house and now he's gotta go do dialysis for four hours a day? I don't think he's going to last much longer. He's in his 90's so he's not a young cookie anymore but still. Today is also Alan's birthday and we're probably going to spend most of the evening at the hospital.

Aww D: That doesn't sound fun. Even if I buy myself healthier things to eat it doesn't go well for me. It's hard to afford separate meals for myself and then to have to cook food for everyone else and not eat it is just... I do not have much restraint lol. But it's way too expensive to feed 8 people a healthy meal every night. Especially when I have maybe $60-80 a week to feed them if I am lucky. (which most times I am not.).
And exercise has to be really tame for me or I get some of the worst headaches I've ever had. So the most I can usually manage is something like walking or maybe beginners yoga.

Those soda things sound nice. I don't go to walmart often since there's a kroger store down the street. But we go a few times a year if we have a lot of grocery money to stock up on things like bbq sauce lol.
I'd like to just kick caffeine tho, but it's hard to decrease them amounts in a way that doesn't give me a week long headache.

For drawing I have my tablet right in front of me and then my laptop in front of that. My tablet is kinda small tho so it's not too bad.
bad pic of my workspace lol
I guess just keep fiddling with it until you're comfy. It takes a bit of getting used to.

Oh no D: That's not good. I'm sorry he has to spend his b-day in such a way. I hope things get better :( I'm not really sure what to say other than that really sucks.

Das where the magic happens, eh? :] Thanks for your help miss!

Also, so..I guess I don't have sub for sketchbook right now so i'm checking out Krita - looks good so far! I might be able to kill my photoshop sub and just use it! Thank you for letting me know about it.

It's okay, Grandpa has been like this for years. The old man just won't give up!

<3

Ahahaah magicyeahno. My space is such a mess right now. @_@ I need to dusk really bad cause it's been windy and the window is open.
plus kyle was using my laptop last night to apply to a new job and he kinda leaves everything he touches a mess. boys yaknow.

Oh I'm glad it's looking good so far! I haven't tried it out myself, but I keep seeing fellow artists promote it and since it's free I thought it might be a good option.

Ahh D: fight on grandpa. <3

Raine! I sorta figured it out - that program is made for this sort of thing, I really didn't have to change any settings just fiddled with my tablet a bit. It's terrible but not too bad for 20 minutes and not much practice?

Spoiler

IM EXCITE!

Also, Grandpa doesn't want visitors until he's moved to a home. It's okay, just thought i'd keep ya posted.

Ohhh yay! That looks so good for trying out a new program! ^^ I'm glad you figured it out a bit. <3
I haven't really messed with it again yet, but I might fiddle with it later or something.

Right now I want to get these adoptables done cause I'm saving for a ps4 *_*
cause dragon age inquisition is really really mean and they released the game on xbox360 but then suddenly now they're excluding it from the new dlc's so.... I have to get a new console AND rebuy the friggen game to play the new deep roads dlc. ;__;

Ahh I hope grandpa is ok <3

GoGo Gadget Raine...bow? :p

Aww..no fun. I don't understand why they do crap like that. I guess everyone's just supposed to be made of money anymore.

I haven't done anymore with the program, i'm in a rut today and having a hard time finding motivation. It's okay, it'll come back but in the meantime i'm clicking knuffels and I redid my little knuffel thread...and many other really worthless wastes of time things .. :p

I'm mad they even released it on the last gen systems cause like... they had to cut out a lot of stuff from the game to make it work. And I think it would have been better to make it next-gen exclusive from the start. :(
I think at least I can transfer my dlc that I already bought. Otherwise I'll be mad cause it was like $15. >_>

Aww that's ok. It happens to us all. ;u;
Ohhh that sounds productive in it's own way, haha.

I keep wanting to update my weebly and my toyhouse with my characters and info and new art and stuff. But it's time consuming so I haven't. I only put like 4-5 characters up on toyhouse and I ended up just copy-pasting the info I wrote from weebly. @_@
but toyhouse is really nice. I can't wait till I have time to get all my characters up on there. *_*

I should do that! I really, really need to update my weebly and probably just move to toyhouse - I can't remember if I made an account there. Hmm..

I hope it all works out for you with the game and stuff. We still have just a 360 but are probably going to get a PS4 for Christmas as like a present for us both? I hope there will be more games on it than there are available on the 360 or One or whatever it is now.

I think you need an invite to get a toyhouse? I'm not sure? but it's nice and other people can fav your characters and comment and stuff. ^^

Thank you!
Yeah I'd wait for a bigger check from kyle or like a holiday or something, but I really really want to play that dlc. *_* I am determined. I'll be almost halfway there after I sell this upcoming batch of adopts that are almost done. Then I think I'll make a set of detailed ones to auction to hopefully get the rest of the money.
