Update on commissions
9 years ago
For all of you that have commissioned me, I just have to say that I'm incredibly appreciative of it first and foremost. Your commissions have helped me tremendously, and I cannot thank you enough, I truly adore drawing them and am so grateful. That being said, I wish to apologize. I've been trying my hardest to work on them to the best of my ability, but a few things have happened recently...One, I unfortunately have become really ill. I can barely breathe half the time, always have a headache, and am taking a buttload of medication that makes me incredibly tired. I had to pay $200 for a motel over the weekend just so I could rest and try to get better, since I sleep in my car, which definitely helped!~ It was alot of money, but at the very least I can still get back to drawing a little more.
Then of course, if that wasn't enough, I was heading out to look at an apartment yesterday, when my car suddenly seized up on me... I had to have her towed, and just got her looked at this morning. Unfortunately, her shocks are cracked, and it's causing the brake and wheel to seize up every now and then..which of course is INCREDIBLY dangerous if I were out on a busy street, especially in this town with a bunch of hills. That was a good $130 to tow and check up, and now I'm facing a bill of $544.00 to fix her. My car is currently where I sleep, and it's everything I have and need...so I'm facing a very big dilemma, since I'm short on that by a good 400.00....So, commissions are going very slowly now as I'm trying to both heal up and figure out this situation...and as of the moment, I really don't know what to do. I'm going to continue trying to work on them as much as I can, even if it means I have to walk to Starbucks to work on it. I can't lose my job, and I can't shirk my responsibilities, no matter what.
I just really wanted to make this journal to take an opportunity to apologize to those that have commissioned me. They're still in progress, and I'm doing my best to get them done, just...my situation is making it much slower then I'd like. I'm really trying to get back on my feet. I'm sorry if you have to wait, I'm doing my absolute best, and I wanted you to know. Thank you for reading, and I really hope you understand. ^ ^;
