Disabled Native artist from the Ponca and Choctaw Nations. I create traditional and contemporary art and beadwork. I have a chronic illness and can not work so I try to support my family by selling my art and fundraising.

I had to make a schedule for myself. I have days split into orders, regalia, paintings, aceo, and inventory. Plus rest I have to have that. I'm working on the order I got while I started my hospital stays and my sons beadwork then eventually my grandsons beadwork.
And I am feeling sick again. Not hospital sick but usual chronic flare up sick. I'm never going to get anything done if this keeps up. I'm genuinely annoyed at my body.
Also I will sit down one day and follow people back. I just get tired and doomscroll videos and forget.
I also have these amazing inventory ideas and paintings to work on. I also am going to be gifted this printer so I can make mini prints and stickers on my own. Once I have that I will be shutting down the redbubble site I forget about.
I got beads in the mail today so I can work on my sons regalia in between orders and stuff. Excited!
My son asked me to bead soup his background color between an opaque and a shiny cut of similar colors. Honestly I think that's going to turn out amazing.
I got new bookcases coming so my weekend is going to look like me completely rearranging all my supplies and my art space. I am both excited and already over it.
