Disability, Commissions, and Show

[badbastion]

Good news! My boyfriend will be getting his first disability check at the first of next month :)

We don't know when he's getting his backpay, but it's not going to be much as he's not getting much monthly (but enough to get us by! \o/) The backpay's going toward work on our car, which is fine, because the car needs the work and we wouldn't be able to do it otherwise :)

Thanks to all you kind and giving souls who helped us out through our time of trouble. Without your generosity, I don't know where we'd be right now. Or how we'd get there.

In other news, I've been very depressed for months now. I had a few days where I thought I was starting to see the light, but nope, back in the hole. I'm not going to talk too much about that, but it *has* been affecting my drawing (if you've noticed, I haven't been a posting machine lately.) I've been hardcore artblocked for a couple of months. /o\

So commissions are taking longer than expected. Those of you who have commissioned me, please be patient - I never intended to just take the money and run. I may have to do some self-indulgent arting to get the juices to flow again, if they will flow anytime soon, so if you see non-commissioned stuff pop up, that's what's going on.

If you commissioned me and you'd like a refund because you don't want the wait, that's entirely understandable, and I'd be happy to work with you. Just send me a PM or an email. Though please bear in mind that you may not be the only one wanting a refund, so I may have to spread them out over time or set up payment plans, and I won't be able to send out any money back until next month. I hope that'll work out okay with everyone involved.

In OTHER other news, I can't wait for the Hellatus to be over! Only one more month! :D The Darkness, here we come!

I'm so glad that the practical side of things is easing a bit, and I hope that the depression also gets better soon.

Thank you :)

Let's hope you can swap your darkness for The Darkness. I'm sure your commissionees (is that even a word?) won't be worried about waiting for their stuff - we all know you are not a welcher! The important thing is that life seems to be getting better for you both.

Yes, I really hope so! I do hope they won't be worried about waiting, but I don't like the wait, either. And thank you :)

Hugs you tight sweetie. Also, anyone who isn't patient enough to wait for a Bas original is cray-cray darlin. I am pretty sure your commission peeps will wait. <3

Yay for your BF getting his disability checks. \0/ moneymoneymoney......

Mmmmm Self indulgent arting. I am drooling at the thought.♥♥♥

*hugs you back* Aw, you're so sweet. I hope people are okay with waiting.

And I'm so glad we finally got a concrete date that they'll start!

I hope I can draw something sexy. I hope I can draw anything at all! <3

Your taste in music is so fun and funky <3 And yes, hooray! Even better than crinkly green lettuce!

Glad to hear some of the pressure is easing. Good vibes to you, kind lady. And artsy vibes too! (Though you may not want those from me, heehee.)

Oh, bb. I'm so sorry you've been down. I really hope that with the RL situation becoming more manageable you will start to feel a little better. I know sometimes depression hangs on no matter what's going on in life, but it can't HURT to have fewer stressers around. *hugs you tight*

Thank you <3 I'm hoping so too, that and the eventual change in weather - I live in the South, and the heat just kills me. Maybe just changes around me will kick me out of it, I hope. *hugs back*

I'm so glad the money side of things is getting easier bb! *hugs* It's about damned time! If you ever need a chat honey, you know where I am! ♥

[badbastion.livejournal.com]

Thank you! <3 *hugs* Yeah, it's good to finally know concretely when we're getting paid :)
