I don’t know how I can remember all 898 Pokémon names but can’t remember actual important information 😩

I managed to find time to draw again after so long. It’s taking me much longer to finish projects since I can’t get childcare in my ward 😭

[Natalie B @natb_illo]

I drew this a few years back and never finished. I want to look for it again but can’t seem to find it 😅

[Natalie B @natb_illo]

I more amazed that the minato ward office were still using floppy disks for payments up until onto 2 years ago?!?

It will be 2022 in 4 months and I’m still recovering from 2020

[Natalie B @natb_illo]

@roselle_pk Oh I haven’t heard of ninkagai. I’ll look into it. I really want some place close by if I can help it.

Hoikuen saga step 1: called my ward to get info about application. Found out it is SUpER hard to get a spot since I working freelance. Need to earn over 150,000¥ a month to even apply. I can’t work because I’m taking care of Squish all day. Got super depressed. Ate cookies.

[Natalie B @natb_illo]

@halfhoneydo I didn’t know that! 😯

[Natalie B @natb_illo]

Debating whether to pay the ¥¥¥¥ to get one of those medical grade snot sucker machines. Just so I can have it on hand in case Squish gets a cold

[Natalie B @natb_illo]

Plus, my friend tells me the next ward over has oversupply of hoikuen (daycares) and no waiting list. What the heck!

[Natalie B @natb_illo]

Still looking at other options for childcare. But this be HArd!

[Natalie B @natb_illo]

@halfhoneydo I also want to know! Currently going through it. I try to organise events or stuff to do and then count down the days, minutes, seconds. I’m big on count downs as it gets me excited for stuff.

[Natalie B @natb_illo]

@halfhoneydo You mean one button right? 😜

[Natalie B @natb_illo]

I found a heart on her head ♥️

I’ve been trying to find pockets of time to draw. But it’s been so difficult as my baby is so demanding. I managed to find a few minutes at night when both baby and hubby are asleep. It’s hard trying work on art and be a SAHM all in one 😖

[Natalie B @natb_illo]

@MishimaKitan My brain just did a backflip

[Natalie B @natb_illo]

@bububun__ Hahah this will be me for sure

[Natalie B @natb_illo]

@roselle_pk Oh really! Ok I might try it even though it’s a few weeks late now

[Natalie B @natb_illo]

My baby turned 100days old! I literally don’t know how we survived but we did 😆🤩🥱
