!!IMPORTANT:COMM REFUNDS!! +some life info/updates!

General
Hello! I have been inactive for a few months. I want to start by apologizing for not completing my owed art and actually delivering them if they were!
If you have not received a message from me about a refund or the art and I owe you art, please note me with your email you paid with and the amount you had spent! I want to get those situated around the 2nd of June or sooner if the money can transfer. Today is my first paycheck for a week's worth and I wanted to use all of it on refunding everyone!
I was able to push my rent to next payday so I'm ok for now!
now on to some life info for these few months... if anyone is interested in reading...
My main thing I want to say is I was looking to quit commissions since I was able to find a job... just until I am mentally and physically doing better...
another thing is I was thinking of starting new... no comms, no empty promises, no overdue art, ect. Or to just maybe quit art altogether and leave the community or smth... I want to still do art, but art now seems like a chore and isn't fun. I haven't been able to complete a lot of art these few months until recently. I'd get one piece done after a few days...
I am still truly grateful for those who helped me get remi to a vet, I'm just very sorry I couldn't get it done and follow through with all the commissions I owed. Life hit me so hard and I struggled to get back up. After 2 or 3 months I had ran into some issues with roommates again, but this time it was more serious. I fell into despair and even deeper into depression and could do nothing but cry over it and play an unhealthy amount of xiv. It was my comfort along with remi to cope with everything. When i picked up the pen to draw id get frustrated trying to draw and ended up breaking my tablet... I had to get a new one but had no money... My sister soon found her way back into my life...
She offered me a new tablet if i did some things for her... which i agreed... soon enough my roommates chose to move and sell the trailer we were living in... all without a warning until the last month informed me... I was so panicked and scared I had no idea what to do... no money, nowhere to live, nothing... I vented to my sister about the situation and she offered to let me move in with her and her husband... but with a catch... I had to get a stable job that paid well and I wasn't allowed to use or pursue art as an option. So I looked for a job, applied, and got rejected for a whole month on repeat.. I was in a panic and no one wanted to hire me... I was running out of time and I was breaking down almost daily..
The month finally came and I got a job. My sister allowed me to move in and gave me first rent off. and my first paycheck (now second) i can pay for rent. We got here this month, I started my job last week and got paid for the one week today... With the money I wanted to celebrate by using it all to refund everyone... I felt horrible from all that happened. But I'm so grateful now to everyone who helped me. Those who helped me with remi, those who heard me out when I was depressed and panicked, and those who encouraged and helped me to get here.
I enjoy the job a little. I get paid ... well? and I am living in a great place... although rent is like 6xs the total my roommates and i paid in the trailer, I still am grateful im kicking and breathing with my dog somewhere safe and with a stable job I think I am doing ok in...
I am still extremely sorry for keeping people from their money or commissions... I will try to do better in communicating any issues or delays in the future!
If you have any questions about commissions or anything, please feel free to ask me here. My notes will now only be for the refunds I will need to complete when the money has been transferred!

I won't say much since I feel there's not much to say without repeating myself from my previous comments. It sounds like you've had a LOT going on though! I really hope you'll find more stability in your life now with consistent wages and living with your sister.
It's definitely understandable if you leave the community as well- it can be a bit all encompassing at times and when you've got other things to focus on, well... It can definitely get in the way of that. Do what you need to do for you!!
Whatever you do, I really hope things continue to improve for you. Light and love, friend!! ♥
