Short Daily Art Hiatus
Posted 5 years agoHey, I made a note on Twitter last week that I had some food poisoning/some sort of stomach flu so if you're wondering why I haven't uploaded any new comics and art, it's because of that. Feeling better now though! My fiance is still getting a slightly up set stomach every morning but otherwise he's fine.
Even though I'm better, I'll be taking a small break from daily art so that I can get back my bearings and catch up on commissions.

More Animal Crossing Commissions?
Posted 5 years agoI'm considering doing more Animal Crossing Amiibo Card Commissions before I open regular commissions again but I want to increase the prices. I find myself putting a lot more effort and detail into the newer ones I make so I thought it would be fair to charge a bit more. But I'm going to have a simple version available to for people that may not be able to afford the increased price!
I'm making them $25 for shading and $15 for simple. You can check the examples here and vote in the poll I made:
https://twitter.com/ConfusedEwe/sta.....63055279906818
Anyway, does that sound fair? I made sure to check out prices from other artists doing these and generally these are $25-$45. Plus you can still get a cheaper version without the major shading. Let me know if anyone is interested and I'll post another opening soon!

Yet Another Update
Posted 5 years agoHey again! Last update was like a month ago and I said I was at my fiance's helping him move but with this whole virus quarantine nonsense I'm still stuck over here. We could drive back to Canada but that would be a HUGE risk considering New York is the most infected state and we would have to drive straight though it. No thanks. It doesn't help that my parent call EVERY two days threatening me to go home. Besides I guess this is a good thing because I get to spend more time with my fiance. Sadly he still has to work despite that most of his coworkers are being let to work at home. He literally does nothing at his workplace since he can't go out to do investigations so he just sits and watches YouTube all day along with all the toll workers who have to stay at the DMV (who also are being forced to come in). Like, can't they just close it down? It's more of a risk letting the workers all clump together with nothing to do. If there's paperwork, just let them do it at home... Anyway, sorry for ranting. My fiance is really pissed at them especially since he could be using this time to move to his new house.
I've finished most of my queue so while I'm working on my last late commission, I'm going to open up Animal Crossing Amiibo Card Commissions again! I just got the new AC game and I'm glued to it!! It's such a relaxing game to play. My Switch friend code is SW-2542-4989-5587 in case any of you guys have it too and want to check islands out :0
I'm not going to open commissions fully yet but If I get some AC commissions and finish my last late commissions I might open them sooner than later. I'm still helping my fiance move btw! I'm just taking a break now since I've run out of cardboard boxes...

Update
Posted 5 years agoHey again! Sorry for being so inactive these past couples of weeks. In my last journal, I mentioned my dad getting terribly sick with a virus and how I was busy holding the family fort down while he was in the hospital. He's home now and is recovering! He's still weak from all the work they did on him so he can't eat too much or walk a lot. He's doing a lot better now though and I'm sure by the start of March he'll be much better. Since he's recovering, I'm still busy at home helping my mom with her store and doing other chores meaning I'm still going to be on a hiatus.
If you're curious about my dad's virus, it was some sort of bacterial infection that started in his stomach and spread to other parts of his body (liver and a little in his colon). He has a staple or something patching a part of his stomach lining from the last time he got really ill so that might have caught some bacteria. It moved to his liver and created some pustules on it. The doctors drained them (about a full water bottle's worth) of some black liquid which was infected blood and did it again a week later (I think this time in his colon). After all of that, they started giving him antibacterial meds to which he is still taking. Another thing they found in his stomach was a large tumor but apparently it's not a huge concern. We thought it was cancer but that didn't feel right since it's only NOW that it's showing and nothing like that was there the last time he was sick which wasn't that long ago. The doctors made it seem like it was another part of the infection and he has an appointment to get another scan of it at the end of the month. If the medicine they gave doesn't make it go away, they'll have to remove it with surgery most likely. As of now, he's pretty happy and just relaxing at home.
In terms of art, I'll just be finishing whatever commissions I have left in my queue and maybe posting some sketches or old art if I have time. This really sucks since February is my favourite month for doing art because I get to do Valentine's Day commissions! I even had an idea for some fun Valentine's Day Card YCHs but I don't have the time now to work on them. I also wanted to do more Dating Sim YCHs but I guess I can wait a little longer to open those up. Hopefully, by the end of the month, I'll be ready to open commissions again. I mentioned a while ago I was going to visit my fiance since he was in a sad state and he'll be moving into his new house soon (that's right, he finally found a place) but my plans got changed due to my dad getting sick. I rescheduled the trip to be on the 28th so if everything is okay at home, I might be able to go. And since he works most of the week, I'll be able to associate more time into making art in the time we don't have together. It's exciting, by the time I see him, he should be in a new clean house! ^_^

Daily Art Hiatus/Comms Closed
Posted 6 years ago*Just adding this on, I'm closing commissions as well! I'll open them up again or post some YCHs once I've emptied my queue.
I'm sorry to say that I'll be taking a short break from daily art as my dad just got sent to the hospital. I called an ambulance yesterday because he couldn't breathe or talk and now he's staying over there for a couple of days until they can figure out what's wrong with him. So far they found a liver infection and a tumor in his stomach. He seems fine right now with the medication they're giving him so I'm glad for that. Tomorrow they should be looking more into the tumor. It's weird because he's had stomach problems before that have sent him to the hospital so we don't know if this relates to that or if it's something completely new.
Anyway, I just got back from the hospital but I'll be visiting him again tomorrow. Hopefully, he'll be able to come home soon. I'll still be working on commissions because I owe that to people but daily art is something I do when I'm feeling good and all this is not a good feeling. Plus, when he gets back, he'll still be ill so I'll be helping out my mom with her shop and other stuff. I might have to postpone my trip to see my fiance too.

UPDATE/Sorry for Absence
Posted 6 years agoHey guys! No, I'm not dead and I'm sorry for being away for so long and not giving an update. That part is my fault and I really apologize for that! Especially to my clients who are waiting on art. I've finished some and started others so I'll be contacting all of you about that soon!.
I was going to continue daily art and my work but I got really busy because my fiance came to surprise visit me for our anniversary and I had to manage my time with him while taking care of stuff with my family and driving lessons and whatnot. I got distracted and ended up procrastinating my art. He was here for two weeks since he was waiting on calls for some new job opportunities (more on that later). After he left I also got kinda sick. I guess it's getting colder now so I'm less immune to the bad case of sniffles, watery eyes, and dry skin. In fact, I'm still kinda off but I feel like that's going to last a while.
I do have some good news though as well as some stuff to think about. First off, my fiance got a new job!!! He got accepted as a detective! Wooo! A motor vehicle detective to be specific. His credit score has also increased by a lot lately so he should be able to get a mortgage on a small house with the money he's been saving. Plus we just found out that first time home buyers can get a discount so that should help too. Life's like a rollercoaster, it goes down but then up again. As for me, I talked to my mother and she actually likes the idea of me going to an art college now. I think she thinks I could be making more money as an artist if I go to school which isn't completely true but at least she isn't against the idea anymore. She even said it would be a good idea to go to a school in the states so that I can stay with my fiance instead of living on campus (she still won't allow me to live on my own as usual). I like the idea of "test" living with my fiance while schooling so it's something I have to think about. I'd have to get a student visa through but maybe doing so will get me brownie points for a fiance visa in the future? Not sure really.
Anyway, sorry again for being so absence! I think I'm still going to take a break from daily art for a bit so that I can get my mind together and get myself on a schedule. I also want to try out some different comic stuff with my other characters since I owe that to my patrons/kofi donators.

Comms Opening Soon + YCHs
Posted 6 years agoHello! Just letting you guys know I will be opening today and will be starting my daily art again this week! Apologize for taking so long to do so. I guess I've just been stressed out again. I do want to stop procrastinating so I'm going to try and make myself busy this week!

I'm Back! +Life Update
Posted 6 years agoHi guys! Gosh, I know I promised before that I'd keep making art during my trips to see my fiance but of course something bad has to happen to stress me out. Some of my dailies were even pre-made but because my trip lasted more than 2 weeks, I didn't have time to plan. I also apologize to the people waiting on me for commissions and other artworks!!! Again, crap happens and it's hard for me to focus on work when I have a bunch of issues swirling around my head.
Also, another apology on my lateness to be back! I've been home for a while now however my internet went out. We thought it was a burnout to find out someone literally CUT the internet cable outside our house! People are always doing this kind of stuff probably because most people dislike my mom. Anyway, she didn't want any internet crew to come to fix it (she doesn't allow people near the house) so my dad had to makeshift a fix. Took a while but it's fine now.
Since I'm back now, I can get to work on all my owed art and eventually get back to daily art and comics! ;0;
Anyway, a lot happened this time around during my "vacation." It was all fine and dandy until my fiance got a leg injury at work and later started getting EXTREME stomach issues. The stomach problem passed after a couple of weeks but the leg injury lasted a long time and is STILL a problem as of right now. He just got back from from the chiropractor and he's waiting for the results. Apparently, there might be liquid in his knee and possible some fractured bone pieces. If that's true, he'll need surgery to fix it. While he was out of commission, we took the opportunity to look for some new houses for sale since he still needs a new place to stay. He would go to an apartment however he has 3 cats to take care of plus 2 full homes of family heirlooms and antiques. Plus his state has some terrible apartments and neighborhoods filled with druggies and hoodlums (he literally works these sites at his job). His sister took some stuff off of him but only the expensive stuff because she's pretty greedy. He currently has money saved in his bank from his job and pension and was told by his mom that she'd give him more to buy a cheap home. We found this really nice mobile home in a nice neighborhood in Pennsylvania and we're waiting on some new job offers there to see if he can move there. Bad news though because his mom decided to cancel her help offer after a month of planning this stuff with him. She does this a lot according to my fiance. Brings your hopes up just to force you to do something else in the end. She's STILL trying to get him to live with her btw. She said she might reconsider if he can get a job in that area but we're not too trustworthy of her after all of this. Anyway, we're still looking and I'm sure he can find a place even without her help. It will just take longer. Just an update! The GoFundMe is still running in case anyone wants to help my fiance get a new house. We're just looking for a small mobile home so any help would be extremely appreciated.
Thanks to those that read all of that! If you skimped through, that's fine too! Again, I apologize for being away for so long and not uploading. And I apologize to my clients especially and will be contacting you all with further updates on your commissions! I won't start doing dailies again until I've got most of my comms finished as well as some owed Patreon art. If anything, I'll make a bunch of daily sketches and upload them to my Patreon/Ko-Fi first.
Hope you guys are doing well and had a great Summer! <3

July Plans
Posted 6 years agoHey again!
Been a while since I posted an update on my life. Things are actually feeling good for me surprisingly! I've been more physically active and am spending a good portion of my day taking walks and runs around my city. I actually lost a couple of pounds too! Practicing driving every so often as well since I got my beginner's license.
Just to let you guys know, at the start of July I'll be visiting my fiance again for summer shenanigans. We're going to go hiking, backyard camping (bc we don't know any camping spots lmao), swimming and probably a lot of Super Smash Bros Ultimate. Because of that, I won't be very active! Though, I will still be making daily art and will probably make some backup art before I go. Commissions can still be worked on there as well but slower than usual. This won't be a mega trip but it will be two weeks. This will also be my first time on a plane so I'm kinda nervous.
Anyway, that's all for me! Thank you for listening~
In case you didn't see my post from earlier, I'm also doing my monthly raffle again! You can read more about it here: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/32044543/

Fiance's GoFundMe
Posted 6 years agoHey all. Despite my daily uploads, I haven't been very active in the community or Discord or even uploading stuff on time and I apologize for that. Things haven't been very good with me and my fiance after we found out a literal day before he was supposed to get his payment for his old house being sold that the mortgage company had filed a second mortgage or something like that and now he will be getting NOTHING from the sale.
He spent thousands of his own money to pay for repairs of that house because insurance refused to pay for half of it. The contractors fixing the house sold a property of my fiance (an old unlicensed boat) and added unnecessary additions, therefore, upping their pay amount by 15K (that his sister's retired mother had to pay). And to top it off, my fiance owed his mom 17K for school and car payments so that gets added on too. We were told at the start that at the MINIMUM we would get 30K but now it's nothing. Zero bro. Atm, he might have to live with his mom (who used to abuse him as a kid) or find a cheap apartment. The negatives here are just he doesn't want to lose the cats that he has had since he was a kid and he has a lot of family heirlooms. We're still thinking things through right now.
So because of all of this, I've decided to open a GoFundMe to help him out even if it's only a little bit. The goal is high, I know, and we don't expect to reach it any time soon but generally, that's what we're hoping on saving up for when it comes to buying a new home. Everything helps and I'll also be contributing every so often when I can. Maybe doing some YCHs to help out.
There's more info about the situation in the link:

Posted 6 years agoHeyyyy just in case anyone is interested in knowing, I've been using a program called "PostyBirb" by 
Lemonynade !
It's a SUPER useful tool that lets you post your art or journals to multiple sites all at once. I've seen other artists use it and I have to say it's worth downloading. Plus it's constantly being updated and recently it just had a huge update that changed the layout and added new social media accounts to upload to.
Here's a brief of some of the supporting sites:
Deviantart, Furaffinity, Twitter, Tumblr, Mastodon, E621, Furry Amino, Patreon, Kofi, and more. A lot of Furry sites are on there too.
http://www.postybirb.com/

Since I draw daily, this is literally a lifesaver. I can edit everything and even make specific settings or descriptions for each site I'm uploading to. It can have the occasional bug but I've only had one after using it for a couple of months. Also, it's freeeeee~

Re-opened Patreon + Comms Closed
Posted 6 years agoCommissions are closed!! They will be open again once my commission status clears~
Although I said I preferred Ko-Fi over Patreon because it's easier to access and manage, I've decided to open a Patreon for people that don't use Ko-Fi or prefer Patreon. It will have almost the EXACT content as Ko-Fi and the rewards are as similar as I can make them. Either way, these platforms are just to give a bonus to whoever donates to me so the rewards aren't to die for. I have a lot of personal projects in mind but I don't have the time and financial support I need to do these projects. I'm hoping that someday I'll be able to get enough funds from supports to make illustrated comics, paintings and merch. Atm, I'm just doing daily art and some new mini-comics.
What bonuses are included on both sites?:
-High res. and early viewings of daily artwork
-W.I.P.s and art previews
-Mini-comics other than my daily comics (will be posted on FA/DA/Twitter at some point)
-First dibs on adopts, ychs and auction biddings
-Commission discounts
-Extra entries to social media raffles (Note: I WILL be doing one soon :>)
Keep in mind everything posted on these sites will be uploaded online at some point (minus high res art). And another thing to add, Patreon allows NSFW art so I may post previews of NSFW art and comics there. Ko-Fi is also kinda the SFW Patreon I have.
Anyway, here's my Patreon if you're interested in looking!
https://www.patreon.com/ConfusedEWE
And here's also my Ko-Fi:
https://ko-fi.com/confusedewe
***By the way, I still have patron pledges from when I last had my Patreon up so if you used to be a supporter, please check and remove your pledge if you don't want to donate!!!

Might be a Bit Inactive
Posted 6 years agoHey, I just wanted to let you guys know that I'm currently attending driving school to get my license so daily art might be uploaded later than usual! I also might be less active online depending on how busy my schedule is.
I'm actually not sure how many classes I have atm? I was there a majority of the day today so there might not be many. Still, I have stuff to do at home and commissions to do so I'm going to be busy
*EDIT
Actually, there were only two classes this month and two next month but I still have to make appointments for in-car driving lessons. But I also need my G1 (basically learners permit) to do that so I need to find out where I need to take the test for that and do more studying. I have no idea of what I am doing and no one has really told me what I need to do. I have no clue as to what the test is like or when/how I'll get my G1 license.

Commissions Open!
Posted 6 years agoCommissions are open! As well as that, I'm going to open up some NSFW YCHs later on my NSFW account featuring some of my characters. Plus a spring cleaning sale on some old adopts. I apologize for the sale mayhem but I'm just trying to get the money I spent on driving lessons back as quick as I can.
You can check out my prices here: https://www.confusedewe.com/
Don't have the funds to commission but still want to help me financially? You can send a donation to my Ko-fi and if you give $6+, you can get a doodle! And every donation gets you access to early uploaded, high res. daily art/comics.

Deleting NSFW Art Soon
Posted 6 years agoHeyyyy, just sending a reminder that I have a NSFW account and that's I'm planning on deleting all NSFW art from this account!!!!
I kinda feel bad to be deleting my art from here but it should be okay because I reuploaded all of it to my NSFW account. So, if you commissioned NSFW art from me and wonder why it's gone then there's your answer. Still, I hate deleting stuff since it's kinda sentimental in a way? Especially since I won't be able to see the comments of people thanking me and saying how happy they are to have gotten the art. But the purge is necessary to keep this account SFWish. I might post lewd stuff here occasionally but never fully NSFW (like censored YCHs or cropped art if I really like it).
And to those who don't know, you can ABSOLUTELY still ask me for NSFW commissions on this account. It just won't be uploaded here but instead on my NSFW account.

Angry/Sad
Posted 6 years agoI'm conflicting being angry or upset right now. My fiance's house that was burned down a year ago got fixed and is now up for sale but for a much lowered price than promised and bc of that plus the cost of the contractors, extra repairs that insurance didn't want to cover and need to repay his mom's dept (she paid for his schooling and car after it was repossessed), he will hardly get ANY MONEY from the sale and will most likely have to live in a rundown apartment or live with his abusive mother and her uptight husband that doesn't like him. TO TOP THAT, the contractors did unnecessary work that they were told NOT TO DO just so that they would get paid more AND sold property that was NOT THEIRS. They sold a boat that my fiance owned but didn't know what to do with bc the license papers were destroyed. They sold it to an old man wanting to make a pirate playground for his kids for $100. If my fiance knew about this, he would have given it for FREE but no, the contractor sold it behind his back and lied when he was confronted. Fuck dude. We don't know what to do now. My fiance wants to take the $100 off the contractor's bill and demand an apology but should more be done? I'm not sure what we can do legally anyway. And now my fiance is broke and won't have anywhere good to stay. I mean, he has a temporary home but it's infested with dust, ants and now fungus (it won't stop growing back despite being bleached and removed). If he goes to an apartment or his moms then all his cats will have to go. Boris is old and has asthma, Thumbs dislikes being touched by anyone except my fiance and Ebony constantly screams and will pee on furniture. I fear that they won't get adopted since they're not used to leaving my fiance and freak out when he's not home. When it feels like things are going good, it just goes back to bad.
Oh, and this is the place btw: https://www.redfin.com/DE/Newark/40...../home/45029041 …
It's okay and looks good for the most part but the layout is iffy. Like, the oven is in front of the kitchen entrance and it's small so that means if someone is cooking, no one can pass to go to the fridge. Eh.
We've thought about making a GoFundMe to get some extra funds for an apartment or new home but it feels too late to do that. I mean, we appreciate the extra help but there's no way my fiance will get enough funds for a new home especially one that allows cats... We just have to hope for the better like always.

Commissions Closed! + Stream Comms
Posted 6 years ago*Commissions closed! I'll open them again after clearing my queue.
Hey been a while huh? I finally finished my last comm (it was a big one) and am ready to open up again! I've also been holding back on doing so and I don't know why. It's always hard for me to start things but I often have a good time after I've started! I guess it's all part of my anxiety.
Anyway, you can check my prices here!
https://www.confusedewe.com/
My prices have changed a lot so be warned. Not extremely but still a lot. To counter this though, I'm going to start weekly streams on Picarto and do cheaper commissions there. You can order beforehand here once they open (currently figuring out prices):
https://ko-fi.com/confusedewe
Thinking of steaming on weekends after 7pm (est) or anytime that's convenient.

I'm Home!
Posted 6 years agoFinally home after a couple months at my fiance's! It was a great trip despite some downs. It's kinda worrying that I'm back now because I have to deal with my parents again and I can't comfort my fiance physically if something bad happens with him again.
I've also got plans on getting my driver's license soon as well as get a part time job. I was never allowed to do these things when I was younger because my parents forbade me to but now that I've gotten more control, I can finally do that kind of stuff. I'm really tired of being treated like child or worse by my parents but there's no way to really convince them of anything. My brother had to SNEAK out of the house at night when he moved and he was 25 or something at the time with a wife. He left with almost nothing. Now my mom basically hates him and calls him a traitor for leaving the family despite him calling and visiting on occasion. It isn't a easy place to live but it's all I have. Plus they're old so it's good that I'm here to help them.
On a negative note, I was welcomed my a lecture saying how my art job is worthless and that drawing nsfw art is a sin and that I'm not allowed to do it anymore. I think they saw the one artwork that was on my Deviantart page but I took that down a couple days ago. They don't know about FA but I'm going to make a NSFW account to be sure. I've been wanting to do that but kept forgetting. I'll let you guys know when it's made. NSFW comms can be noted here but they won't be uploaded here.
Anyway, I'm back home now and will be ready to do daily art + commissions soon! My fiance is staying for a couple days to relax so I'm just going to try and make the best of it.

Commissions CLOSED!
Posted 6 years agoCommissions are closed for now!
I might open up some late Valentines Day style YCHs later but other than that's I'm full.Commissions Open + New Site!
Posted 6 years agoHey all!
Got some good news for once and it's about my site. I made a new one! It's still a bit of a W.I.P but mostly in the portfolio section and that's just because I don't have the files I need since I'm not on my home computer. Everything else is updated though and more stuff has been added! This includes an about section which kinda has a pic of me (it sucks but oh well). Updated prices slightly but mainly for YCHs.
You can see you new site here: https://www.confusedewe.com/
If anything looks off or the site isn't loading well, please tell me! I'll try to fix it as best as I can.
So commissions are open and in time for Valentines day! Couple/friendship comms are 10% off and so are Dating Sim YCHs! I wanted to open my other YCHs too however I do not have the significant files to do some of them.
If anyone is interested in hearing me rant more, I've got a bit for you (but you can ignore it). We're still dealing with car troubles I'm afraid. Turns out we need to fork over $7500 because they found out my fiance isn't the owner of the car despite him telling them before that his dad passed away (he was the owner). Sad to say we have to take a mons out of the estate account. Not only that but the contractors NEED 20k by the end of two weeks or else there might be a lawsuit. Now there's 13K in the account bc of the car so we need to get a loan from his mom who we don't trust fully. He'll have to pay it back once the house gets sold. ON TOP OF THAT, the contractors also need more money to finish the house. Everything is done and BRAND NEW but the kitchen isn't done yet. They need 15K for everything otherwise the house gets sold for less. On top, ON TOP of that, to we were told that Moneygram could be used to transfer the money for the car payment however they a limit to how much you can send at a time and a $50. So he basically has to pay $700 in fees just to send the money. We could have sent a check but my fiance doesn't trust UPS to send that stuff especially after they lost my $200 package via Amazon. Plus a check could take days to get to the receivers and we don't know how much more time we have left until the car gets put on auction. It could be in an auction house right now! The car company hasn't called us back yet so we don't know...
Anyway, that stuff happened and also we both have a cold. My chest hurts bad and my mouth is constantly dry. Stupid stuff keeps happening and it keeps getting worse. If his sister hadn't taken the 30K out of the estate to fix the house, he could have taken that by now and have gotten a new home but noooooo, I guess it's too late now.
Sorry for ranting again :< It feels like everything is falling apart. I can't even go home because we don't have a car and the passports were IN the car. I'm fine with staying longer but I worry about how things will turn out. Thank you to everyone that donated to my fiance! It was nice of you guys to do that and my fiance thanks you too. It made him feel a bit better knowing that there are people who support him in his worse of times.

REALLY Bad Stuff
Posted 6 years agoMe and my fiance are at tears now and I mean that in the worse. He owed his car company $1000 in dept for his car and was going to pay it at the end of the month when he got his pension money (he has $2 in the bank currently), however we woke up in the morning to see it GONE! The towed it away and now he owes the extra for the towing bill and for car storage. By the time he gets the money, he'll most likely owe $2000 or more! Plus he has to pay bills, buy food, buy supplies for his cats and take me back to Canada so that might leave him under $200-400 for the WHOLE MONTH! Not to mention I can't stay a whole month extra as I already stayed a long time on the last trip and staying too long could evict me from the country and risk my chance of immigrating here.
I'm going to try and help him by opening commissions soon. I still owe art to some people but that WILL be finished before I open my comms. I'm thinking of doing a discount on couple/friendship art for Valentine's Day and also doing some dating sim YCHs.
If you want to help us then please do check those out once I open comms or send a small donation to my fiances Paypal: https://www.paypal.me/hughcraig

Trip Update
Posted 7 years agoHey guys! Apologize for not being very active online but I guess anyone that knew about my last trip, knew this would be the case. Even though this was a "vacation" of sorts, it became more of an addon to my workload. In terms of art, I'm still working on some older comms that I will be finishing soon but other than that, I've been focusing on other stuff. My fiance is in quite the pickle and bad things keep piling up.
--Rant Ahead--
He still doesn't have a full house of his own and is still living in his deceased grandparent's home which is going into foreclosure (although he might be able to delay it). His old home is still in ruins but there are contractors working on it. Initially, he wanted to move back into it but it would be to expensive so now he's going to sell it. The insurance company was covering the costs however there are damages they said were present before the fire so they refuse to fund the rest of the fixes which according to the contractors, costs $30,000. That was EXACTLY the amount that was given to my fiance in reimbursement funds. Apparently he was suppose to get $80,000 but the insurance company cut it down due to calculations of the destroyed items. Of course, these are items destroyed by the fire and not the a**hole volunteer firemen that destroyed my fiance's stuff for fun. I don't hate firemen, it's just that my fiance was unlucky enough to get the "a**hole squad" as the chief fireman called them. A lot of volunteer firemen in my fiance's state do that. They even made fun of his toys and collectibles. Anyway, it's a shame the reimbursement funds are so low. We looked over the paperwork and all the pricings looked unfair. A fully working NES in the BOX is not worth $15!! >:( they even LIED about the prices of items my fiance wrote down. He DID NOT write $0 for a working clothes dryer. The only items that were fairly priced was physical money and antiques. We tried calling the insurance worker in charge of this but he hasn't answered yet. He disappeared before so I hope he doesn't do it again. Gosh, I really wish these issue would end but it keeps going! My fiance's sister is also co-in-charge of all this and got all of this info MONTHS before my fiance did. She WAS suppose to give this info to him and talk to him about this stuff but they don't like each other so she never bothered. The reason why she has charge is because when their dad died, he didn't give a will with the home's ownership so both of them have to deal with it despite the fact that she doesn't live there. In fact, both him and his dad didn't like her. Every time she came over they had to hide valuables because she would STEAL from them. Her son too. Actually she has THREE sons but two of them live with their mother's mom. She's a really nice lady and gives us advice all the time. His sister only has one son with her because her mother reuses to take him (he's a huge trouble maker). That is the only reason why she still has one son with her. It doesn't help that she also does drugs and the "husband" is no where to be found. What a good mother x-x. Anyway, speaking of her, you know what I said about the contractors needing those big mons? Well, my fiance was considering canceling everything and just taking the mons for himself since selling the house could take a long time and the fact that that house is ALSO being foreclosed puts a time limit on everything. Well, without his permission, she took that money, technically HIS money (she has access to it though) and gave it to the contractors. AHHHHHHHH. We were just discussing about keeping the money a DAY before we found out. Now it could take MONTHS or even a year before he gets money from the house being sold. Not to mention he only gets a bit of it and has to split it with his sister. HOWEVER, she did promise that once the house gets sold, he WILL get that 30K back. So thinking about it, in total, he MIGHT get 45K. Such a big gamble but I guess there's nothing we can do about it now. I guess now my fiance has to stay in his mold and dust infested house for a longer amount of time until he gets the funds for a rentable home. And you could be like, "well can't he live in an apartment or something?" He would be he currently has less than $10 in his bank right now only gets money from a monthly pension. He also just quit his old security job (they gave abusing and little paying workloads) so he's gone job hunting. Not to mention he has 3 cats to take care of and an ENTIRE TWO FLOOR HIGH HOUSE of stuff to trash/keep/sell. He has trouble throwing away memorable items so it's been hard to organize things. It's the main reason I'm so busy here. I'm trying to help him clean out the place and convince him to throw things away. He also has a storage unit of stuff too. This place is all over the place, I mean, there's not even a working shower here. We have to go to his mom's house to shower and don't even get me started on her. She acts nice and is trying to help my fiance by paying his school payments and whatnot but there's still something untrusting of her. I say that because she did A LOT of bad things in the past. Her and his dad hated each other and did a court case to see who would take care of him. His mother dated/slept with multiple men to get a better opinion in court and also got her family to vouch for her. The judge also hated men and therefore took her side. That judge was even FIRED afterward because of her misandry. She ended up winning and got to take turns to take care of my fiance. He was FORCED and I really do mean it, to live with his mom every other month. Even in a BLIZZARD that KILLED PEOPLE, she enforced police to get my fiance driven to her house. She physically and mentally abused him and hurt his pets. Yes, she even abused animals for fun. Now, if you met her, you would NEVER BELIEVE these statements were true. They are and my fiance and his family acknowledge it. She though, will never mention it and will most likely say otherwise. She even hired physiologists to convince him that his father was the abusive one and when they refused to believe that, they would be fired. Anyway, she now lives in a mansion with a rich husband who doesn't like my fiance and hardly her. He kinda just stays in his room all day and sleeps in separate bedroom than her. She offered to let my fiance live in their basement (which is bigger than most apartments) for free but her husband wanted a rule set. If he stayed there he wouldn't be allowed his cats (he won't say why), guns (despite my fiance's next job probably requiring it) and I would not be able to visit for more than 3 DAYS. Yeah, a $1000 trip for 3 days... He stated that because my fiance should focus more on school than me despite the fact that we video chat for HOURS everyday and me visiting would only comfort him. We don't need to go to cool locations or eat out everyday. I just want to be with him to comfort him and make him happy but I guess that doesn't mean anything to that guy. Yeah, lots of oofs. So let's counts the amount of oofs in my fiance's life. 1.He was abused 2.His grandparents died 3.His dad died of cancer 4.His house burns down 5.His valuables and memorables are destroyed 6.His reimbursement funds are little and were taken without knowing 7.The old house being sold is a gamble so he could end up with $0 8.He has no money and no job 9.He still has to go to school 10. His fiance lives in another country she won't be able to live with him for a long while.

If you read all of that then thank you. I'm not wanting to bum people out so if you didn't read it, that's fine too! It's just that so much has happened over the year and I fear for what the future will be. Sometimes you just gotta rant it out.
Anyway, enough sad stuff. How are you guys doing? Has your new year been going good? Despite the bad stuff we have been doing some fun things. I got to go to my first furry event! It was a Furry New Years Ball at a hotel. There's also a FurBowl 2 weeks into February so I'm contemplating on staying a bit longer. Not sure yet. I also got to play Red Dead Redemption 2 and Smash Ultimate! My fiance couldn't put the controller down when he played Spirit Mode on Smash! We also set up a Wii U so I got to watch my fiance play The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD. I should make more Zelda art tbh. Anyone see that Steven Universe season final? 👀 What an great ending! It makes me curious as to what the next season will be. What else happened? Oh yeah, I got drunk for the first time, haha. At home of course! It was my first time drinking hard cider so I kinda overdid it. LMAO, my fiance made me take a video of him in his fursuit head while he was drunk and it was just him rolling on the floor while saying random stuff. I don't condone drinking too much! It was just a fun thing to experience one time. I don't usually drink but I do like cider so it was something to try.

He still doesn't have a full house of his own and is still living in his deceased grandparent's home which is going into foreclosure (although he might be able to delay it). His old home is still in ruins but there are contractors working on it. Initially, he wanted to move back into it but it would be to expensive so now he's going to sell it. The insurance company was covering the costs however there are damages they said were present before the fire so they refuse to fund the rest of the fixes which according to the contractors, costs $30,000. That was EXACTLY the amount that was given to my fiance in reimbursement funds. Apparently he was suppose to get $80,000 but the insurance company cut it down due to calculations of the destroyed items. Of course, these are items destroyed by the fire and not the a**hole volunteer firemen that destroyed my fiance's stuff for fun. I don't hate firemen, it's just that my fiance was unlucky enough to get the "a**hole squad" as the chief fireman called them. A lot of volunteer firemen in my fiance's state do that. They even made fun of his toys and collectibles. Anyway, it's a shame the reimbursement funds are so low. We looked over the paperwork and all the pricings looked unfair. A fully working NES in the BOX is not worth $15!! >:( they even LIED about the prices of items my fiance wrote down. He DID NOT write $0 for a working clothes dryer. The only items that were fairly priced was physical money and antiques. We tried calling the insurance worker in charge of this but he hasn't answered yet. He disappeared before so I hope he doesn't do it again. Gosh, I really wish these issue would end but it keeps going! My fiance's sister is also co-in-charge of all this and got all of this info MONTHS before my fiance did. She WAS suppose to give this info to him and talk to him about this stuff but they don't like each other so she never bothered. The reason why she has charge is because when their dad died, he didn't give a will with the home's ownership so both of them have to deal with it despite the fact that she doesn't live there. In fact, both him and his dad didn't like her. Every time she came over they had to hide valuables because she would STEAL from them. Her son too. Actually she has THREE sons but two of them live with their mother's mom. She's a really nice lady and gives us advice all the time. His sister only has one son with her because her mother reuses to take him (he's a huge trouble maker). That is the only reason why she still has one son with her. It doesn't help that she also does drugs and the "husband" is no where to be found. What a good mother x-x. Anyway, speaking of her, you know what I said about the contractors needing those big mons? Well, my fiance was considering canceling everything and just taking the mons for himself since selling the house could take a long time and the fact that that house is ALSO being foreclosed puts a time limit on everything. Well, without his permission, she took that money, technically HIS money (she has access to it though) and gave it to the contractors. AHHHHHHHH. We were just discussing about keeping the money a DAY before we found out. Now it could take MONTHS or even a year before he gets money from the house being sold. Not to mention he only gets a bit of it and has to split it with his sister. HOWEVER, she did promise that once the house gets sold, he WILL get that 30K back. So thinking about it, in total, he MIGHT get 45K. Such a big gamble but I guess there's nothing we can do about it now. I guess now my fiance has to stay in his mold and dust infested house for a longer amount of time until he gets the funds for a rentable home. And you could be like, "well can't he live in an apartment or something?" He would be he currently has less than $10 in his bank right now only gets money from a monthly pension. He also just quit his old security job (they gave abusing and little paying workloads) so he's gone job hunting. Not to mention he has 3 cats to take care of and an ENTIRE TWO FLOOR HIGH HOUSE of stuff to trash/keep/sell. He has trouble throwing away memorable items so it's been hard to organize things. It's the main reason I'm so busy here. I'm trying to help him clean out the place and convince him to throw things away. He also has a storage unit of stuff too.

She acts nice and is trying to help my fiance by paying his school payments and whatnot but there's still something untrusting of her. I say that because she did A LOT of bad things in the past. Her and his dad hated each other and did a court case to see who would take care of him. His mother dated/slept with multiple men to get a better opinion in court and also got her family to vouch for her. The judge also hated men and therefore took her side. That judge was even FIRED afterward because of her misandry. She ended up winning and got to take turns to take care of my fiance. He was FORCED and I really do mean it, to live with his mom every other month. Even in a BLIZZARD that KILLED PEOPLE, she enforced police to get my fiance driven to her house. She physically and mentally abused him and hurt his pets. Yes, she even abused animals for fun. Now, if you met her, you would NEVER BELIEVE these statements were true. They are and my fiance and his family acknowledge it. She though, will never mention it and will most likely say otherwise.
