Feeble Internet

So sorry for all the days that have been missed! No I haven't forgotten about this; my internet is pathetic. At first it started where I could use Skype to message people but that was it, It couldn't even load google. Finally, I decided to restart my router to try and get it working. It took it nearly 24 hours to reconnect. Of course, it reconnected right as we were about to take it into our provider to get a new one. I am hoping to be able to stick with this one just a little longer being we will be moving soon.

Though I complain, I am also grateful for it, as the internet we are using is free (well, included in our rent at least). There have been times in the past where I don't know if we would have been able to afford good internet. That being said, I am extremely excited for an internet that runs a bit faster. Most things that we want to do, we are able to, but it is really, really slow to download anything. We don't really notice until we have something to compare to though. Once we were chatting with Tov's Brother-in-law and said that the download had taken just 15 minutes... it had taken us over an hour.

But enough about the internet. What else have I been up too? Well for the fun stuff, I have been working more on my art and my webcomic. I'm still struggling with the same character. I also have found out that I am still struggling with my style. Headshots have been coming along nicely but now I'm not sure how to do the rest of the body in my new style. I managed to make a really nice, realistically proportioned body only to find that my head style doesn't work with it many more. So I'll have to work on figuring out that style when I get my tablet back from my sister.

For the not so fun stuff, I have been to the dentist twice this week. First was just for a routine check up and cleaning. I got a new hygienist who I adore. I have always had a really hard time with my gun health (thanks dad for those genes haha) and often the hygienists criticizes me, saying that I need to work harder. This one, Angie, she was super supportive, helpful and kind.

The second visit was the next day to do something called 'Scaling and root planing' aka she took evil pointy tools and scrapped my roots and jaw clean. Needless to say, my mouth now hurts quite a bit. I am also taking an antibiotic for the next three months and have to get cleanings done four times a year instead of twice. Hopefully this works to help keep my teeth in my head for as long as possible.

Final note before we go, I think from now on, I'll be writing my post about the previous day. This has been much easier and I can do it any time of day instead of having to wait so late that I may forget.

Until next time; may your day be wonderful.
