Hey guys! Sorry for the delays with this update but I figured some of you may have been curious about the results of the GoFundMe campaign and the insurance claim debacle from a lil while ago. (link for anyone who's confused: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/53161271/)

I once again cannot give enough thanks to everyone who donated, shared, or even just commented to help with the car theft situation. Seriously, even the advice on new car options really helped me get my head on straight and make decisions on what needed to happen to keep moving forward.

I was in a really bad place afterwards and panicking big time all while doing my best to continue working and posting as usual, despite the fact that i never really got a second to have a proper breakdown/recovery over the loss of my car. Some of the long-term effects of this incident are still hitting and I'm not totally stable at the moment; the lingering fear of further theft or violence has made my partner and I reconsider staying at our current apartment complex (the sudden rent hike is also not helping 😭), the new car payment is double what I expected it would be due to incredibly high APRs at the moment, and the hit to my credit was so much more than I planned and now we worry about qualifying for future investments (ie. moving to a new apartment...).

On the lighter side of things, I really love this ugly blue beetle of a car that I have ended up with. Its not the newest or nicest vehicle out there (definitely not the fastest lol), BUT! It is mine and it will keep me and my lil family fairly safe and comfy and that's what matters the most right now.

I just wanna say another big thank you to everyone who helped and shared and offered kind words when I really needed it. Sometimes I forget that the furry community is a COMMUNITY and its not all about dicks and butts all the time.... Well, it kinda is, but thats not necessarily a bad thing either haha
