Where to even start....
Things where not going too bad when i last checked in with yall but have since become hard realities. I was grieving the loss of an ex who happened to commit suicide on my birthday...as hard & complicated as you'd imagine that ordeal to overcome. It took me awhile to finally feel like myself & let go of my complex feelings of regret & resentment of everything that transpired to lead to that dark day. I was still on hiatus with music/doing shows due to my dog nearing the end of his life, which he did have to get put down this past october. it was super hard losing our dog of 15 years and & not too long after, my cat suddenly dies under my bed & that completely ruined what progress i made. For months i didnt wanna do anything & nothing interested me. It dosent end their. The only grandfather i've ever known, died in his sleep, a few weeks ago...prompting us to take in his dog, which she's also near the end of her life.Ā
It's been one cluster fuck after another & I'm truly at the lowest i've felt in many years, yet i'm still not giving up. It's bizarre to be reaching a certain level of growth with my music, to only not care & let bill's lapse to where all my music was taken down from streaming platforms. Yet as of yesterday, it's all back online. I will still try to book shows, interviews & work on my 7th album...but with a different pace to avoid running myself into the ground for good...bc my health has also fell to the wayside a bit. I was really looking forward to a late summer tour but that definitely is not going to happen with a new dog to keep a constant watch on. The best i can do is continue to play things by ear until my family is taken care of. Just know i'm thankful for yall as a tight knit community & for months i didnt know how to even address the trajectory of my life, so now ya know. Be kind to each other!
