A Plea For The Moose & Some Personal Reflection
10 years ago
General
Well, as things pile up with the bills, taxes, delinquent rent, funds, etc., it's becoming worse and worse to the point where I must ask for any kind of donation for Dineegla to keep his (not our) head above water. More on that in a moment. You can send it thru the usual means and any amount will be hugely appreciated.
Commissions are still open, btw.
Now to Part II:
It's become plain that much of our predicament is my fault. Ok, I didn't cause Din to break his hip or the tenants to be behind on their rent or other tenants to move out, leaving us in a lurch...
BUT it IS my fault that things have not been done (or done properly) when it comes to: keeping up with commission work, household chores, cleaning, taking care of Din the way it should be done, I am easily distracted by other things like my Ipad, tv, etc. And when I do some work, well, tho I think it's done, it's not done either correctly, sufficently or satisfactory.
So to sum it up, I am a F***up when it comes to being an artist, husband, fur and just plain human.
This is not a sob story or a "feel sorry for me" rant. It's just me telling it as it is.
I will continue to try to help Din wherever, whenever, whatever I can. I know it'll never be good enough to repay him for all he's done for me over the years..if he will let me.
I still love him and feel honored he chose me.
I wish I was worthy of it.
I feel like crap.
P.S. Thanks to all our supporters. You're the best!

You're human. It's perfectly okay if things don't go our way every once in a while. The fact that you care and try your hardest to keep up with every single obligation in your home just shows how dedicated you really are. You keep trying despite the odds. You obviously love your husband enough to keep trying.
To me, that just shows what kind of a man you really are. *hugs* Wishing you the best always!
So don't feel sorry for yourself. Because it shows in this journal that you do. Do you realize he's very sick right now? If he trusts you to run everything while he's in the hospital I'd say that he loves you very. Much!
So tomorrow help him when you can. Maybe do him a drawing or bring him flowers? Just don't be down on yourself. I look up to you guys a lot!
A relationship is also a living and constant work of art. Mistakes are made, everyone is human, it is all part of making the journey. Do not fret over things that can be worked on and improved upon, as long as one is willing to do so :)
Good luck with things - best wishes goring forth!
I think I have a commish request submitted already - lemme know if you still need/want one from me!
but i learned that sulking over it doesn't help. now if you realized those things well change them. he loves you and needs you more than ever.
so make the changes needed.
I'm willing to help a bit, but it'll have to wait until like next week. But I have a quick question. If I have a pending commission, can any money I give go toward making that commission better?
I'm not sure what's going on with you and Din right now, a quick journal review I see he's had to be in the hospital for some time. I pray he gets better I know what an ordeal something like that can be, my dad went through the same thing it's very painful. As for your relationship... Well, I don't believe anything qualifies me to give advice given that I'm not entirely certain what's going on there, but I do hope you'll be together. One thing my experiences have taught me regarding relationships is stress and strain to it seems to work to make it stronger in the end, when all the appolgies and forgiveness and wondering how you got so worked up in the first place comes in... It's always worth it to tough it out and in the end it's really up to the other person wether or not you deserve their love and kindness. I know if it were up to me decide I don't think I'd be with anyone, heh, because I barely ever feel good enough myself.
But long winded rambling aside, I pray you and he will be okay, and I'm sorry I haven't been the greatest at keeping in touch or being a good friend.
Nobody is perfect and we all make mistakes.
I am always keeping you both in my prayers! Big hugs to you both.
