Still settling back into new/old home by Taesolieroy

Hey guys,
Sorry for being silent in regards to the whole transition process. Many things are still in boxes as we try to re-find our pattern and flow in life in a three-person household.

Stressful? Certainly, but what aspect of life isn't stressful? It's how we change, how we adapt if we choose to face it and support each other. Even when frustration is at snapping point and the desire to have nothing to do with each other is strong. Still, many things have led to questioning myself on where I stand in life, if I belong anywhere at all, and just how co-supportive I've been beyond the material energy.
Last night was probably the hardest so far when a couple things were said in regards to how stuff was being handled in priority, and then later realizing that I may have just lost three very precious handcrafted kites I've had since I was little with a careless stacking of heavy videos on the box that had been labeled as fragile when I went hunting for camping gear earlier today. I guess it was turnabout fair play if I had possibly accidentally damaged something not of my possession.

I want to give a shoutout to all those who've not only voiced their support during this move, and lent their amazing help in the dilemma of getting my animals safely up to Maine and their care, but also came to help with the packing process. At this moment my newly renamed leopard gecko Sahara is trying to peer over the window ledge into the rest of the house, while the bearded dragons Queta and Mariyna are settling with the treat of morning sunlight on the deck (though Mariyna is trying to have a death stare duel with little Queta who's apparently preferring more muted light than direct sun). The gliders Xeeva and Thony have also been far more energetic and active than I've ever seen them, and I'm looking forward to replacing their ratty cage alongside upgrading the reptile tanks into nicer and more accessible environments.

Thank you guys so much, it really meant a lot to me during that time when I couldn't reach many. Even those who couldn't make it sent their well wishes, and that's just awesome as well! The fact you all kept in contact when you could I can lend no words to.

I am aware that the last four years have not been the best in how I conducted my life physically and socially. If I could take back the fights and bouts of depression I had I would, but I cannot, and will not allow guilt to dominate as through them I found friends who really do care and listen without pulling any verbal knives of their own. I am learning how to temper when I vent by the day, but while difficult, it's nowhere near as hard as it used to be.

I believe that once I've fully settled in for this new chapter of life I can start getting back into doing the things I love, hopefully....

I sincerely apologize to all of my commissioners that this has taken much longer than it should by any rights :C This is not how I've envisioned things turning out at all.
