I Was Mistaken
7 years ago
I thought our lives were crazy before... Yeah, no.
I started the month normally enough. Not feeling amazing physically, but doing what I can. By the middle of the month, I had what I thought was a minor injury. Within a week, I couldn't walk. It turns out, heel spurs can happen at any age, regardless of activity level or lifestyle. My doctor said it would go away on its own, and that if it continued for long we could treat it.... So I spent the rest of May unable to walk. Thank goodness for having content saved up for my Patreon peeps.
Just about when I was able to function again, our water heater went out. Landlord comes in to get that taken care of (after a crazy cleaning session while hopping on one foot), and all seems well. Until I got a letter in the mail a few days later. Turns out he's about to sell our home, as he's getting on in years. We have no idea how long we'll have until we have to be out, or even IF we'll have to be out, as there's a chance the new owners will want us as tenants.
AND THEN, just days after getting over all that mess, my PC's hard drive goes out. WITH AN HOUR OR SO OF UNRELEASED CONTENT NOT BACKED UP ELSEWHERE. Yeah. Fun times. I managed to get a replacement drive for a reasonable price, but it'll be weeks before everything's back the right way.
And one last thing - I found out one of my old links to formerly exclusive content instead leaked my ENTIRE work drive. So a few hundred people who looked at my FA got to see all my exclusives. Thank you to the honest gentleman who let me know so I could correct it. For those who clicked on it and got to see everything, I hope you enjoyed it. I'm not even mad - it was my goof and if I wasn't me, I'd absolutely have taken advantage of it and downloaded everything. The link was immediately changed, obviously.
I did have some good stuff happen as well though - we got some much needed help through all the crises and some very nice birthday gifts sent my way (which with all the drama lately I needed a pick-me-up). Some of that will actually end up featuring in future content here, though the rest is NOT FA or Patreon-friendly, I don't want to get myself in trouble for doing that kind of show :) I'm okay; I can kinda walk again and will suit again once I can wear my heels, my computer is running again once I can find the drivers for all my peripherals and my mic, and I've still got the most amazing people on the internet cheering me on. I can do this.
Anyway, when I thought that 2018 can't get more unpredictable, I was very much mistaken. Never bet against the universe; it always wins.

I'm confident things will get better, we just have to keep going.
We're working on getting our situation more stable, and hopefully things will make more sense soon.
If we need to move we're going to do a round of fundraising - either sponsoring a large piece of content or giving discounts off our work as rewards, not sure which. If we don't need to move we were probably going to do fundraising anyway so we can build a Lina suit and set up some meetups with other sexy suiters for guest content. Either way, we'll post about it when we're ready.
Other than that, just knowing you care means a lot. We're going to figure this out - we're far too stubborn to let life stuff get in the way.
I wish you the best, and take your time getting things back into order.
With the inheritance disputes here on my end, I know your whole life can be turned upside-down in just a few days.
Thank you, I hope we can get back on our feet soon.
