Hey guys! I got an update for my book! I haven’t worked on Chapter 2 in a bit, but I’ll get back to that shortly! Keep that in mind!

[naturebonestudio]

Hey y’all! Long time no post… I’ve been taking time off for recovering both mentally and physically. Many of you may have already seen in my stories but my beloved grandmother passed away at the end of January after her long struggle with dementia. She had a huge part in raising me and was a huge influence in my life so its an extremely difficult loss. I put my shop on vacation mode and took a few weeks off to tend to my emotions. Unfortunately just when I was feeling ready to start working again, I was exposed to and contracted Covid 19. Fortunately I am vaccinated and have a healthy immune system. I only had mild symptoms for a few days but quarantined for a week just to be safe. I like to think all the echinacea, nettle and elderflower tea I drank helped speed the recovery too. ☕️🖤 I am fully recovered now and feeling uplifted by the recent turn towards spring weather. My shop is active and I am ready to get back to grindin in the studio. I apologize to those who have been waiting to hear back from me about custom orders! I will be getting back to you asap, thanks for your patience and support! ✨ . . . #personalupdate #naturebonestudio #glassartist #skullpendant #borosilicate #vultureculture #witchyjewelry #gothart #handmadejewelry #glasspendant #ramskull #etsyseller #glassforsale #glassofinstagram #neurodivergentartist #mentalhealth #glassdesign #flameworking https://www.instagram.com/p/CakjEKUpzpG/?utm_medium=tumblr

Good news!

While I haven’t been the most accurate with food tracking, I’ve been doing an OMAD thing and having low calorie snacks later if I felt like I needed it. I was doing this before I used calorie tracking apps and it’s somehow been the best option for me. Anyways, despite this, I can now fit into my torrid size 0 leggings comfortably. I could beforehand, but they were always a little tight and didn’t have normal amounts of mobility leggings are supposed to give you. My size 1 leggings are now a little too loose and are more like lounge pants. They kind of give me diaper butt. This is exciting because the smallest size they make is a 00, which is a size 10!! And I already fit into regular clothes if I go to Aeropostale or something; I wear a XL right now in “normal” clothing not from plus size stores. Y’all have no idea how excited I am about this. Just a year ago I had the hardest time finding anything that was in my size, much less flattering for my figure. Plus size was my only option. I couldn’t even really find workout clothes in my size at a certain point (which actually helped me get into intermittent fasting in the first place).

Oh! And since I’m here and forgot to do this on the 13th, here are my one year anniversary pics!

Freedom Day, November 19th Edition.

Freedom Day, November 19th Edition.

14 Months without a regular job. #Personalshare So, here we are. Can I say I’m starting to hate November? This whole damn month has been an exercise in Murphy’s Law. That guy exacts his “legal fee” out of me this time of year almost every year. It’s like 2020 came to pay a visit. We’ve had children with illness/injuries pretty much every week so far. Strep throat, wrist injury, and the common…

#Selfie - #PersonalUpdate: I'm too prideful to ask for help when it's desperately needed but up until now, I've been able to break even and not wind up in any hole. Still paying off a lot of Pandemic Debt like a lot of you are, too! Come Tuesday, here in the #PhoenixMetroArea I'm renting my first #LyftExpress rental and trying my hand at #Lyft!? I'm also looking into training for a real estate license. I also DON'T want to turn my Photographic Fine Art into a day job. Composing photographs has always been a spiritual path for me; a metaphysical escape that is...from this reality. I can't say I'm a big fan of this #Capitalist Exploitive System we all live in; in many regards is as bad as totalitarianism and authoritarianism.

I have been collecting games for a while now and have quite a collection (don’t really have that many holy grails or anything like that). But to be honest... I haven't played many of them... I wanted to challenge myself to try one each week starting a few weeks ago. If you are interested in this you can follow my progress on instagram.

Full relapse ft. New habits.

[booksovertv]

To decompress I’ve been cleaning, dusting and organizing my shelves. Dust is my enemy. I’ve placed a few orders and have had a pile forming on my floor. You couldn’t see in my previous post, but one of my bottom shelves was full of hair care and body products. Well, they needed culling and a new place to go. I needed that shelf for the new stack of books I’d accumulated. We will discuss hair care hoarding in another post🤦🏽‍♀️. I’m really trying to downsize in all areas of my life. I don’t want to keep fast fiction on my shelves. I will not buy them physically and will request what I want to read from my library or Hoopla. Knowing what works for me and sticking to them is the way going forward. Which means trying new stuff (every category) is a no. That’s how I’ve accumulated so much. I’m praying about it and being mindful of my emotional spending. How are you all doing? I’m praying 🙏🏽 for us because it’s been a year for the books so far.. Future history books I mean. Take care and be kind to yourself and one another #books #bookstagram #shelfie #personalupdate https://www.instagram.com/p/CCMAvZ7A0Jc/?igshid=carv70cahz4y

Unfortunately, I have a few things I need to say. □□□ Lizzardley, and any and all other comics, are going to be postponed again. I have put page one of Lizzardley, Chapter 1, Lost in the Magic, up on my Facebook, Tumblr, Instagram, and deviantArt. □□□ Warmups will be available in February to the public. ●●● My bronchitis has flared back up, and I've been almost bedridden all of January, except for the past week when I had to force myself up and help my cousin with my great-grandfather's camper so we can sell it. ●●● All comics, Lizzardley, Woy Earthbound, Smurfs; the Defenders, and others, are postponed progress wise until further notice in hopes I can get my life back together from this near fall out. ♡♡♡ Thank you all for understanding! I hope January has been better on some people than it has me, and that the rest of 2020 goes well for all of you! ◇◇◇ TAGS #update #personalproblems #personalupdate #lifeupdate #artistsofinstagram #digitalart #nikkiarcher #kiaramettz #lizzardley #lizzardleylostinthemagic #comicupdates #hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh https://www.instagram.com/p/B71M1HapcaD/?igshid=1w20efmhmjmc3

I know how to kick arse. My problem, right now, is finding both the motivation and the energy at youth which to do so. #depressionposts #depressionsucks😔 #depression #depressionhelp #mentalhealth #mentalhealthgonemobile #mentality #mentalillness #mentalhealthawareness #positivity #motivation #motivationalquotes #motivational #inspirationalquotes #inspiration #inspirational #instapiration #instapirational #personalupdate (at Hartford, Connecticut) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6Q5PYKhJG2/?igshid=7t3cl8ruksd7

So here’s a pic of me having a fun time at urgent care yesterday... *sarcasm* I’m doing fine now but the story of how I ended up there is a good example of how mental health can have unexpected consequences for your physical health. (warning, it gets a bit gross) I deal with #anxietyproblems specifically #panicdisorder among other diagnoses. While I have a lot of support around me and have many #copingskills for managing my anxiety and #panicattacks, I can’t avoid the fact that when my mental health suffers, my physical body often takes a hit too. I’ve had a lot to deal with for craft shows, the shop update, late bills/life stuff and helping to care for my grandma with dementia. Of corse add my brutal mensural cycle into that mix and you get one very stressed and panicky Jean this past weekend. Being super stressed has the fun side effect of lowering your immune system and making you susceptible to random infections that your body could normally fight off. (And heres where it starts to get gross) Extra anxious sweating + lowered immune system from anxiety + some crappy genetics/bad luck = painful pingpong ball sized abscess from a blocked infected sweat gland in my armpit. (Yep. Gross. Sorry.) I had to take an unfortunate trip to urgent care to have it lanced open and drained so that the infection would not keep spreading under my skin and make me ill. It was not pleasant and I am not good with that kind of thing and nearly fainted during the process. It is not the first time I have been under extra stress and gotten a swollen abscess like this but it was the first time it didn’t resolve on its own in a few days and had to be surgically drained. An unfriendly reminder from my body that #mentalhealth can become more than mental so please take care of yourselves lovelies! 🖤 I am feeling a lot better today and will be back to shipping orders and getting ready for the Spring Pitman’s Craft Show on Saturday. #personalupdate #mentalhealthawareness #anxietydisorders #medicalproblems #morethanmentalhealth #grossstories #ewww https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxck-THH_OL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=quxj58a41y9n

Time for a #personalupdate the past weeks have been intense. I talked to several people and they all say there is a 95% chance I suffer from #ptsd. Hell I got a post traumatic stress disorder and I might as well own it. I also took active steps into making changes. To clear my head I decided to join a gym. In 3 weeks I have the first appointment with some #mentalhealth expert lady we shall see what the future holds.. I have to admit it was a lot to cope with.. but baby steps are also steps! #fightingptsd #mentalhealthawareness #posttraumaticstressdisorder #iwillbefine #iwillbefierce https://www.instagram.com/p/B4BALipnv5Z/?igshid=ays4wm0ozfec

June 23rd

I can’t really focus long enough and I’m honestly too upset to try to count calories right now. So I’m more than likely maintaining or, worst case, very slowly gaining. I don’t think I’ve gone overboard except like three or four days where I just ate like garbage. I don’t regret any of it at the moment. I’m not really going to be upset about that. I will get back to that when I can. I’ve spent the last 18 years chunky and I’m still 65lbs down from last year.

I did manage to take care of myself, though. I bought some hygiene items the other day and I even splurged and got myself nice stuff for once. I got them at TJ Maxx so I don’t feel bad buying Esteé Lauder face wash and Bontanica moisturizer. I saved like $20 before tax on both of those things (original MSRP was $46 for both). So that’s all I can really ask for right now. I’m not really sure where to go from here. I really want to go to school still, but I’m really having trouble jumping back into my plans and my routine right away even though now I know it’s more pertinent than ever at the moment.

I have so many mixed feelings about my dad’s death. I would’ve never ever expected this. He was the strongest man I knew.. Father’s Day was really hard. I had plans to get him a really rare whiskey that’s incredibly hard to get hands on called Blood Oath (not sure of the Pact No.). It’s $100 for a pint of it and my store only gets six bottles a year, but I know he would’ve loved it..

How My October Went.

November approaches. October was a bit of a rough month. I'd like to say it's all getting better.

Personal share today. It’s gonna be a long month. Truthfully, I’m ready to be done with this reality. I’m tired. Which, yeah, sounds funny coming from a guy that spends a lot of time at home. #Promptober and #Monstober were both awesome. I had fun and the ideas flowed like a river. I have 20+ prompts to catch up on. It happens. Sometimes it’s rough being creative instantly on demand. Other times…
