Hi everyone, while I've been plugging away at my commissions, several things have occurred at poor times.

In short succession my wife took ill, family needed help moving from a bad situation and then on the way to help family, I realized that I, too, was becoming ill. I had to delay getting care until Sunday evening, as I was hours from home and this specific task was not one that could be rescheduled. Abandoning a family member, especially one that asks so little, was and is not an option.Thankfully, what I have is not transmissable, so I did what I could to minimize the impact and grit my teeth.

Unfortunately, it's corporate consensus in the area that bacteria take Sunday evenings and holidays off, so no one will need antibiotics during those times. While my wife was able to find a store open for a few hours on Monday, I'm still much sicker than I would have been had I been able to get prompter treatment, especially with my somewhat compromised immune system.


Thank you to my commissioners for being patient and understanding. I'll be back at it again, soon enough, and with more ardor than ever.
