What you should know about me now

---

I don't like to advertise my personal life, but I think it will still be important to state it as a fact. I have a certain responsibility to my customers, so don't take this as a complaint or a cry for help or anything like that. I can handle everything myself, so no worries!


This year I took a strong hold on my health, because every year it got worse and worse and it’s no longer possible to endure, this began to greatly interfere with my Work and Life.
Although it always got in the way, I just constantly put it off or ignored it.

I went to the specialists yesterday and spent a huge amount of money ahahaha.. yeah..
Well it's worth it I guess.
At least I now have a clear plan of action and a bunch of pills to take with breakfast and dinner hehe.

My husband also takes part in all this, he also needs medical treatment for neglected and delayed problems for in the past few years. He has been working even longer than me, constantly on his feet, on a full-time basis since the age of 15. This is how things SHOULD NOT happen in normal families, but alas.
And his salary covers only the basic things for our existence. And this is NOT his fault, it's just how things are going in our country (spoiler: not in the best way). We also have to deal with this problem this year, because it’s no longer possible to live like this, I don’t have the strength and time to pull the two of us and at the same time help my relatives. I want to clone myself sometimes ahah.
All this does not alleviate the situation, it is an endless stress.
But I'm ready for anything for the sake of my family, this is the most important thing in my life.

All this is not terrible and it is not a disaster, if we look at it objectively. It's just life as it is and I accept it.
We don't have incurable diseases. At least for now and based on the information we got from the doctors. It's good news I suppose!
But this does not negate the fact that these problems SHOULD be dealt with and not aggravated.
We always find time for something good, and sometimes we have a little rest as well. After the doctors, for example, we went to see new spider-man movie ^^

Gotta get together, because it's a very thin line we walk on, we're looking for a balance between Life and Work, but I still can't afford not to overwork.

So, what I can say about work is that nothing will change in the near future unless some sudden popularity descends on me ahah and I can afford to raise prices to the extent that I don't have to work about 12-14 hours. Of course I could work 7/0 and be able to work 8 hours for a day, but.. heh. I don't think it's necessary to explain why I shouldn't do that.

So?..

Everything is connected, as you can see. But at the same time, I try to still treat everything responsibly, even more than before. I believe that with the right approach, I can succeed.

I just want you to know that behind each of my work there is a piece of some small story.
And I want you to remember that we are all living beings - thrown into this Big World without "vision" and the ability to stand on our paws.
And only after many years we acquire the ability to see, walk and speak, and accumulate our experience.
Nothing comes out of nowhere, everything requires responsible decision making and wisdom.

All these are obvious things, I know, but practice shows that people very often forget about this, or pretend to forget.

How can you help?

---

If you want to help me somehow, if you really like my work, just share it! I'm serious.
My conscience will not allow me to collect money from people just like that, I'm not dying, after all! :D I just put my thoughts here and ask for your understanding.
My opinion is that as long as you are able to work, you must take care of your life yourself. And no one else owes you anything.
If you don't agree with me, it's okay! :3 I don't claim my opinion as the only correct one. I also don't mind discussion ^^

"No!!! I WANT to help!"

---

Besides the fact that I have Commissions open in the usual mode and some things on my Patreon , I can’t offer you anything else!
Links to donations are made simply because I saw it from others and did the same, tbh :D

Use your money wisely. Perhaps tomorrow you may need them yourself.

I also have a Journal for Customer Reviews !

I'm still surprised that I've never seen anything like this from other artists (If you've ever seen something like this, please show me, I'm interested!).
I think this is a very important part of our work - the ability to give our customers make feedback not only in private messages, but also publicly, given the widespread problem of scamming and irresponsibility among some unscrupulous artists (Hmm, I think I should make a post about this too someday).

There aren't many reviews yet, although I've served a lot, A LOT of people over the years. But it takes time for the customer, I understand that.
The FA Journal is convenient in that reviews will be stored there as long as Furaffinity lives. They cannot be faked in any way, and "hiding" messages can arouse suspicion. Therefore, you can safely trust these reviews and even write to people who left them with a question about their experience (but ask their permission first please!!)
