Back in action, sorta
11 years ago
First off, I wanna thank everyone for being so patient while me and my family have been dealing with things after Gram's passing. This time has done a lot of good and also gave us a good chance to get a lot of things handled.
TL;DR, My grandpa didn't want to live down in Miami on his own after stuff, so he sold his house, or put it up to sell, a few days after the funeral and moved up here with us, but is really allergic to my parents dogs, so he's been staying with ME while he house hunts, which meant most furry stuff was shoved REALLY QUICK into the closet. BUT he's working on getting the final details of getting the house he wants, locally, so he'll be moving out probably this week.
The sorta longer version.
Gram's funeral went pretty ok, i guess, all things considered. It was nice, and there were a lot of people there that I'd never met before, going back to her college days! I never knew she'd originally wanted to be a teacher, but when she and gramp's married, she went to live with him down south *she used to live in NY* but she didn't find work in her feild right off the bat and ended up working at a couple of the hotels down in Miami as housekeeping and eventually a consierge(spelling?) up till her retirement several years back.
The ceremony was beautiful, but it sorta left some fresh wounds and we were all really down for a few days, until Gramps sort of... showed up and let us know all his stuff was in a local storage area here in town. He sold his COUPLE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLAR HOME down in Miami at almost half value *or is/was in the process of getting the deal finalized* thanks go having almost every realitour(again, spelling) in the area list it, and then some, and he got a nibble and just took the first offer. He didn't want to live down in miami on his own since most of his family was gone, or WAY Way north aside from my dad, so he sorta just popped up and was like, 'Hey, help me find a new house!' which is what we've been doing most days since he got here about 3ish-4ish weeks ago. But he's finally found one that's almost ready-to-move-in that he likes and he's been talking with the Rep for that house all morning, so he should hopefully be able to move in there soon.
As far as suit stuff goes, I haven't had much chance to work on anything, and as far as art stuff goes, it might as well be about the same. I haven't really been paying much attention to anything not family related, so I'm sorry I'm not back with guns blazing and throwing art and fursuits all over the place like 'lookit how productive I've been!' but it's been crazy lately and a lot of stuff got behind.
On fursuits, I don't think I'm quite cut out for doing commissions at the moment. Not more, anyway, but for the couple people I was talking to before this all happened, if you're still interested in me doing it, I'd be happy to keep on with what we were talking about, but it might take longer than planned due to the set backs and just having to get back into the swing of things. I also understand about people wanting refunds if they do, and it may take me a bit cause my spare funds from art/suits are totally tapped out, and my job gives me crap hours. So I may do some streams on NighttimeFosslils to make back money for refunds first before going back to work on other stuff. I'm not really sure yet. But I do need to run off again, so I won't be able to reply back right away to comments, but

I'm still interested in what we talked about, but no hurry and if you're feeling overwhelmed then please don't worry about it. <3
It's been three months since I asked for a refund, two since I've even gotten a reply. :/
