TL;DR: I have had a bit of a hard time recently, and had an emotional breakdown. I am humbly asking for some extra time to complete the work I still have - provided refunds aren't desired - then after those are completed, I will officially be taking a break (I'm serious this time!) for the new year. Thank you so much for everything. ♡
Hello everybnuy! I am sorry for being away suddenly. I am not very eloquent, but wanted to say something regarding how things are going for me right now, I hope my words come across the right way. ;;♡
As always, its important to me to be completely honest. I apologize deeply for delays on current commissions. Recently I’ve been really stressed and thought I was feeling burnt out.. and then the massive hurricane in my area happened, and DURING the hurricane I found out I am expecting a baby..! Which I am insanely thrilled about! However, last year I experienced a very rough miscarriage that really affected me mentally and physically. The pain in my heart from it is still a little fresh. Finding out I am expecting now, honestly sent me into a spiral. While I am blessed and grateful, I am terrified at the thought of losing them again.. With everything going on, I really just had an absolute breakdown and cried for days and days.
I am also moving one last time (military family woo!) at the end of November- and with everything going on... I am seriously a little overwhelmed. However, I don’t want to come across as I don't want to do the work given. I very much want to give my all into my commissions, it just may take me a bit longer. I 100% understand the need for extension may be disappointing, so I am willing to offer refunds for existing clients! However, if you are willing to wait, then I'll be completing the work. I will have all projects done by the end of the year in this case (now to Dec 31). Before, I was completing 1-3 a day, but with how ill I'm feeling from morning sickness among other stressors, I can realistically only finish one in a few days to a week.
I appreciate all interest in my work and completely understand whatever decision you make! Please reach out to me if you have any specific questions. Thank you again! ♡♡♡
