Went from stressing abt if I would stay employed in the aftermath of the storm to going to my first two furcons, and meeting critters that I thought I would have to wait years more to see, all in what I would describe as an emotionally cataclysmic year
Best times of my life while in the thick of it

I'm thankful for my friends and the critters I hold close, I'm in a very good position compared to last year. This time last year me and mine were struggling for water and power after Helene, water had just returned to the city. It's good to see where 365 days take you, if you're patient

You made it through a genuinely pretty dismal and stressful year, but it's about the moments that make it worth going through it, like time with a loved one or dear friend, a really good meal, or even just a hobby that's driven you
