I'm Alive

Well well well... it has been a few years since I've posted on here hasn't it?!

Unfortunately, the cause of my sudden stop of posts.. is that I had a seizure.. and near mental breakdown while trying to mentally recover from the trauma. About 5 years later and there are still lasting panic attacks and anxiety to thank for it.

But I am here.. still.


See! This picture is from today! I am still here.. sometimes I can't believe it.

Anyways. I am currently cooking up something in the oven.. and it is going to be delicious. Hopefully I will remember to get pictures of it before its eaten.

Well, I am going to say goodbye for now, only for today. I have some fun things coming!
