A couple setbacks

I just wanted to post an apology for the lack of content here and to explain what's going on. A while back after a Windows 11 update my PC's registry was nuked, so I had to reinstall Windows, I thought I had enough data backed up to continue using Krita where I left off, but I lost everything except for my art project files. I've been slowly building up a bunch of custom made pencils and brushes and stuff and after reinstalling Windows, they're all gone, so I've been trying to recreate them or at least find other brushes that suit my purposes well enough.

Not too long after the Windows debacle, I got a letter informing me that my health care and food assistance will be cancelled. Since Patreon is my only source of income I decided I needed to cut back on my grocery spending, one of the things I ended up cutting was caffeine. I've had a pretty large caffeine addiction my entire life, so I figured it would not only save me a good amount of money to quit, but also be beneficial to my health, but I didn't know that the side effects would be so severe. I've been dealing with intense drowsiness since quitting, it's slowly getting better, but this is the main thing that's been setting me back.

I'm working at getting back to normal, both regarding the Krita stuff and normalizing my body to living without caffeine, and I feel really bad that it's taking this long, I'm really sorry. I'm incredibly grateful for the support I get from you all and it kills me to let people down.
