Sincere apologies to my supporters. This month has not been kind to myself nor my partner, and I've hardly had the time or energy to be able to work on things as I'd like to.

We've had two deaths this month, one on my side and one on his. I'd sustained a minor injury on the day of my grandfather's funeral as a minor sprain, and while it's healed decently it's still painful at certain angles, though slowly getting better. i was unable to attend the wake for my family because my partner's grandmother's death happened on the exact same day it was planned for.
last night a large tree came down in the wind storm in front of the in-law's house and while it took out 4 hydro poles and the internet for an entire day, and just barely missed the in-law's car, but if they had come home 5 mins later it'd have crushed their car with them in it.
we lucked out and our side of town still has power, but i'm not sure if they have power yet. there had been some considerable booms, sparks and flames last night near their place, but no extreme damage seems to have been done to any homes or cars.

So... very tiring and dramatic month. We've been using pokemon swsh to help deal and get through this, but i've managed to get some time to do work for my contractor + patrons, though I still owe some.

also all this is why i haven't been streaming as planned nor been able to get picarto premium. still plans for that, though i might start with the basic plan to feel things out next month.

To those I still owe: i'll be sending out messages on patreon again to ask for your prompts, and if they're not done this month, it'll carry over into next month where you'll get november and december's rewards that month. I already have most of my xmas shopping done so that shouldn't be a distraction lol

also myself and my partner's 11th anniversary is next month, but who knows if we'll actually be able to properly celebrate it with the way things are going right now... 

again, sorry for the radio silence on my discord and elsewhere. it's been a very trying month. i'm crossing fingers hoping december is very quiet
