I know everyone's message center is probably already full to overflowing with holiday greetings, but I want to toss mine on the pile!
Whatever you celebrate, I hope your holidays have been and will be joyous and merry. Enjoy your time with friends and family, enjoy the food, enjoy the decorations, take part in whatever traditions make you feel warm and fuzzy inside.
And yes, Virginia, there IS a Santa Claus.
Much love to you all,
Connie

Still Kickin'!
It has been an insanely long time since I did much of anything on dA! I'm going to have to wimp and dump here again pretty soon. I'm stunned and flattered to still see people finding and faving my deviations, even while I've been so inactive.
I do want to apologize to the folks who inquired about commissions or purchases while I've been absent. With three jobs, I don't have the time to accept commissions right now. If I can ever get this time management thing figured out, I will re-open commissions, and I will let everyone know!
I haven't done a good job of photographing and documenting my projects since this spring. I'm hoping to get back
Wimp and Dump!
Wow, I haven't updated my dA journal in almost 3 months. :omg: I also haven't looked at many deviations in the past 3 months. The number I had in my watch box was so overwhelming I didn't know where to start. :faint: So I finally broke down and just deleted everything from my watch box (a "wimp and dump" as my friend LadyAliceofOz (https://www.deviantart.com/ladyaliceofoz) calls it!). I'll find the good stuff I missed sooner or later.
Long story short: I'm basically working three jobs now with the day job (which got promoted to full time), our game company (which has always been full time), and the weekly column I write for a gaming website. Not a lot of time is left for dA! The
One of those tag thingies...
I admittedly have not been on dA much lately (you don't even want to know how many deviations there are in my watch box! :faint:) but even with that, it's been way too long since I've updated my journal. I'm still kicking, just very busy, and rather stressed and distracted. I am looking forward to heading to MisCon this weekend - I've got a lot left to do to get ready in the next two days, and it'll be a lot of work, but it'll be a lot of fun too!
Anyway, Robert got tagged in one of those "10 things about me" memes, and I haven't done one in a while, so I thought it would make a nice, light, and quick journal update!
10 Random Things About
Crappy Updates CLARIFICATION
With Robert's health issues still unresolved, we have canceled our appearance at Fargo Core Con in April. He saw the neurosurgeon today, who flat-out said, "I have no idea what is wrong with you." We go back to our primary care physician tomorrow to see where we go from here; Robert also has a couple appointments scheduled for glaucoma testing (the neurosurgeon sent him to the glaucoma specialist about something else, which turned out to be nothing, but the eye doc saw enough to warrant glaucoma testing). So all we have after nearly a month of suffering is more appointments and more questions, no answers and no relief.
