Life Post: July 2020

Hello Everybody! How are you all doing?

Today I am posting a new life post! It has been a while since I’ve posted something. Little by little I want to get back into it. July hasn’t been easy for me. But I am glad that we are done with it.

So like I’ve said before July has been a difficult month for me. Since the beginning everything has been going wrong over and over again. And with the current situation we are living in, it made things even worse. You say you are strong until you spend almost four months trapped in your house.

But what made everything worse was the combination of so many things. Being stuck at home because of the illness. Afraid of getting sick and strangers. The stress of looking for a new apartment. And the heat of Summer. They all combined and I snapped.

I was starting to feel it way before if happened. But held on until it all caught up to me. I don’t mind staying at home and only leaving for work and groceries. But I was getting sick of not having a life. I haven’t had a life since 2018.

My life is work and home and nothing else. At first I had real reasons. Back home I didn’t have a job and was planning to move away. Then when I moved her, I had to save money to get a car and an apartment. When 2020 came I thought this was going to be the year when I could go out and have fun. But I was wrong.

The only fun I’ve had in 2020 was, to go to a mall on my B-day and eat at Olive Garden. Spend a day in a park. I went to see IKEA and I tried a new Chinese restaurant. That is it. That is the only fun I’ve had this year and that was January and February. I had plans for July, then they were moved to September. Now it is officially canceled.

So I have no hope for 2020, I will try my chances again in 2021. Too bad, I can’t get a year of my life back. At this point, I want to live life like 2020 didn’t happen. If it were that easy. Now I am making more life plans because the real world looks very scary.

What about art? I am still drawing. I gave up on my impulses and bought a new sketchbook. I am planning to draw more than 58 drawings before September comes. I hope I can make it. Coloring had been challenging. It is hard to start something with this hot weather. I lose all energy when the house gets hot.

So I am not a Summer person even though I was born in a warm country. But I am a Winter baby. I am happy when I am cold. Even though I am not doing a lot of productivity I am trying to keep myself doing something.

I am trying to fill up two new sketchbooks. Practice with a new watercolor supply. I’ve been practicing some techniques and color combinations. I haven’t colored anything yet. I am very nervous and I am scared of messing a drawing up. Like always.

Little by little I am starting to get back to how it used to. But I am also taking my time. A am counting my days to move out into my new apartment. This time I will buy myself a desk. I can’t work on my lap anymore. It motivates me less to work when I am that uncomfortable.

So there you have it. A new life post. A new post after many weeks of not posting. I will try to post more often until I get back to my regular schedule. But for now I will dedicate time for myself and rest. So please wish me good luck.!

Do not forget to give me a visit at The Senspirational ArtRoom. All I need is your support and now you can do so by going to my Patreon page. Or go to see my older drawings at DeviantArt. There are also many other sites that I am currently active in. Never forget to add me on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, and Pinterest. Well, I’ll leave now. Be nice to others and have a nice day!

See you all later and take care,

from Ijiserure.
