iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

My brain decided I needed to strip the spindles (I think that's the right word). Not ideal after I've already started painting the stairs... but I guess finishing painting can wait an extra day. Anything but do actual work... 🫠😖

This gets said constantly, but it worth reiterating: Games Workshop being bigger than fishing is important to shout about because you wouldn't know it from government talking points, which are rarely about anything creative or artistic. Growth won't involve fish or steel, it will involve goblins.

Another successful tk maxx book haul 🤣 I had to resist the temptation to buy better versions of mythology books I already own, but I'm really trying to watch my spending 😅😅

I don't really have any freezer boxes tbf. I have some glass containers I could maybe use but in my head that's scary going from frozen to heating up 😅😅

Seriously wondering if it's worth investing into some of those meal prep freezer cubes 🤔 cooking for 1 person really sucks, but I feel like they're also kinda expensive

It's been so long since I actually started on these stairs (this picture is from the end of january) that it's easy to overlook how far it's come 😅

Slowly making my way through the veilguard art book and I really love these early, simple shape, concepts for companions. Not sure what it is but the art style just tickles my brain

The mice seem to have moved on, fearne is using the new litterbox (though it is kinda messy but improvement over a using a random corner).... now this anxiety just has to go 😖

It's too easy to take good pictures in the forest 🤣

This will do 🫡 I'll take tonight off (or do a small thing) and finish the rest of the stairs over Monday & Tuesday, which should mean I get to put on the carpety bits before rhe whole family comes to visit 😊

Well coat 2 took me less than an hour.... its so fast I'm kinda annoyed lol. It's looking pretty good now but we'll see tomorrow when it's dry and there's more light whether it needs a 3rd coat or not

More spooky season reads! I did bring this along on bike ride but I didn't get around to reading 😅

Actual daylight stairs update with the first coat of paint 🤣

ilonka 🌱💜 @ilonkadraws.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

It would've been nice if I could've done this in the summer with more light in the evenings, but oh well 🙄 (tries not to rant about the renovations stuff)

ilonka 🌱💜 @ilonkadraws.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Is that... half the staircase done? 😮 or at least, having 1 coat lol. It's def gonna need a 2nd coat and probs even a 3rd coat, but when I did the other staircase I'd only get 3 or 4 steps done in the same amount of time 🫣🫣 (have I gotten fast? am I just working more sloppily? who knows 😂)

ilonka 🌱💜 @ilonkadraws.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Ohhhh I super appreciate that! I always feel a little silly posting these, but it makes me feel human 😅🤣

Time to finally get to painting the dang stairs

At least all that somehow made me forget about all my own anxiety (not that I know what's causing my anxiety, but at least now I have a source for my emotional state lol 🤣)

I should post something halloweeny for October... I've had too much anxiety to do any art beyond the absolute minimum for work... have some voids 😅

ilonka 🌱💜 @ilonkadraws.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

I'd really appreciate if all this anxiety would go away cause my body is real fucking tired 😩😔

I did it 🎉 it's never too bad (though sometimes I wonder how there's a week in between invoices/finished projects and I ask myself wtf I've been doing and then I need to be careful not to spiral lol)
