Hello everyone, I would like to make an announcement that there will be no commissions opening on the 7th. I'm not sure about the 14th yet, I'll probably open 2 slots then

A little bit about why this is the case:
I've been sick with conjunctivitis since the 15th of last month, which makes my eyes itchy, watery, and sore all the time. My work speed has dropped a lot because of this, but I thought I could heal up and be able to keep up a normal work pace. Since September 2, my husband has been hospitalized with multiple sclerosis and I now travel to see him for 5 hours every 2 days. In the background, I seem to be developing something along the lines of a mild depressive episode (?). I don't know, that's what the psychologist tells me, but I find it hard to believe that I could have something like that, as I used to cope with all the difficulties. Every day I feel lousier and it's harder and harder to force myself to work, it feels like I'm sitting for hours and hours, and the work doesn't seem to be getting any less. So I want to try to take an extra week to try and clear up a bit of the accumulated debt (it's not much, but it's there), and maybe get myself under control a bit. I'm a little embarrassed that I'm generally not working very efficiently these past 15-25 days, and here I am taking an extra week. I'm hoping for your understanding
