The Reason for my Hiatus. (A lot of stress)
6 years ago
General
So what happened during this weekend? (Why did Nanukk go on Hiatus)
First primary reason is, my uncle was dying in hospital this weekend. Last of my grandmother's brothers. My mother is very attached to him, and he was dying. As a diabetic, and without money, he had to attend a governmental hospital that was supposed to amputate his toe because it grew gangrene. After the operation, doctors found the surgeons did a very bad job of it. It wasn't healing.
He ended up being rushed to hospital last night in another city over, to get proper surgery. They had to amputate his entire leg to stop the poison from reaching his heart.
The operation was a success, and he started eating this morning - recovering.
Secondly, an old telephone account came back to haunt me. They were charging me for a number I cancelled a year ago. And they called me up for debt collection. Meaning my credit score was going into a bad rep. With the house, I'm renting in currently, being sold... I cant have a bad credit record - otherwise I wont get another place to live without the landlords liking me.
A few minutes ago, they called me and sorted it out. They will be crediting me for the debt, and apologized. My credit score is saved.
The oven in the place I am staying in, kept tripping the entire house. And blew up my friend's pc because of it. The landlord finally caved and bought a new oven for the place. But I had to attend to that yesterday. After they installed the new oven, they dropped the old one and glass shattered everywhere. They also had to drill into the cupboards and marble to install the oven and stove top. This caused the entire house to fill with dust, getting into my lungs and causing me to have bad asthma yesterday. This made me very cranky too. I also had to take the entire afternoon cleaning the kitchen (the rest of the house still has layers of dust everywhere, but at least the kitchen is mostly cleaned because of me.
People have been poking their issues onto me during this time, it has made me very upset and caused me more stress than I needed. They pushed me into a deep depression and caused me to be severely anxious this weekend, Monday and Tuesday. Today, I feel better.
This is why I went on hiatus, I couldn't deal with the stress of all of the above. This has also caused me to be cranky with new customers and people who have been bothering me lately. I apologize for those who dealt with that, I'm fine now though.

Hang in there and always do what is best for your own physical or mental health before thinking too much about everyone else. It sounds greedy but it's basic survival instinct.
You just take time off when you need it and take care! :3
I so need to commission you too. Are you truly open? Or should I wait?
Im always open, though you'll be waiting 2 months to get your commission. You are more than welcome to commission me.
I hope everything picks up for the better for you soon mate.
