Checking outta my hotel. Been on work trips and events a lot making it hard to stay connected to social media for me.
However i wanted to share a few pictures from PAWcon where i got to suit a bit and hand out candy!
Life feels a tad out of control hectic of late. Still i did manage to make it to slabtown scamper last weekend. Wanted to share some round horse content this #FursuitFriday #fursuit #fatfur

The sun has been rising closer to my wake time. Cannot wait for sunset to be near end of work day. Already my mood is improving and feeling like i have energy again. SAD be gone i say. Goodbye gross summer downs!
I had a dear horse friend visit over the weekend just past. I was a little concerned as my energy levels after all that long travel to Oz, the post trip sickness i had, and the return to lifting. Still it was so good to see and hang out. Do cafes, breweries, and even attempt a magic the gathering draw day (yes the bloomburrow set! We are furry trash through and through).
I wish i could have managed more but i still had a great time and generally this is what i prefer as a birthday gift. People giving abd sharing their time with me. (This was a very belated birthday visit giving my trip back to the south). The reminiscing over relationships and their changes was a closeness and conversation type i have not had in a long time. Certainly a rollercoaster of feeling and experiences had.

Post my trip, post travel sickness with symptoms still lingering i get back under that bar. Its been four weeks since i lasted lifted due to trip and the sick i caught on my return. This is the longest break in about 4 years for me (covid gym closures), it would have been 6 if not for that interruption. so i know i must go slow. Just the realization i have never stopped lifting for this long a period in such a long time. I didnt think i was that dedicated but i guess i really am.
Made it back to my hole stable late last night. I did not manage sleep on the flight back to the USA this trip. My body and mind feels a bit wrecked from it. Talking a wrecked body i also managed to catch something on return trip or just before. So very much in recovery mode as i unpack and reorganise myself
I did manage to leave enough room in my baggage for me to ship back a bunch of treats and snacks for myself too! All those biscuits and treats I cannot get here than i enjoyed. Marvelous!
Last day in oz. I am checked out of hotel and awaiting shuttle to airport. Coming back here really made me remember how much i like where i live now.
Saying that damn do i adore Melbourne in its many aspects but portland feels it has enough of the things i like that kept me pining for Melbourne anyhow.
The friends though. Reconnecting with so many was a delight but made me feel like i was constantly hopping from one meet to the next. So many good meals and time with friends had.
Not going to discuss that time with family so much as that was just difficult in every way for me. The other cities and people really helped me get through it. Now to manage this trip back, return home and smother my Boar in touch and words of how much i appreciate and miss him.
I have made it to the regional airport post visit to family. I am having to keep up breathing and relaxation exercises as my mind and body are still recovering from the last 4 days. Being very aware this sort of interaction takes a bit of time to settle off. I always find the anxiety lags after this sort of visit though the relief to past it is certainly coming into view.
