so, I started trying out making some LJ icons today, I was hoping to distract myself from how I was feeling and I know that worked to help me relax back when I was regularly making batches of them. unfortunately that doesn't seem to work as effectively as it did in the past (not to mention it's a pain in the butt to make animated icons with what I'm using compared to using what I use to use, it doesn't resize as well as the program on my old desktop did).
it just hit me really hard today, a level of grief so bad it made me feel sick to my stomach and ache all over. I really, really miss my mom, having her around... it seems unreal that in just over a month I'll be celebrating my birthday without her around...
sometimes it's just so hard to take...
