My last update was at the start of my house problems. I’ve been updating the progress/lack of progress on Patreon.

We had an incompetent insurance adjuster.

They put us in temporary housing, which was nice as dealing with insurance was a chore of constant delays where the adjuster was in over her head and couldn’t keep up. This blew up at the end of January when she dragged her feet in approving our housing extension. We were notified with less than 24 hours notice, that we had to leave the property, with NOWHERE to go. That’s with two dogs, three cats, and my autistic daughter. That was a nightmare.

The adjuster vanished.

Thankfully, ALE (The housing coordinators) got us into an extended stay hotel the next day. That’s where we are now. All of my equipment is in storage and has been. I have my laptop and that’s it.

The good news is that we have a new adjuster who is more eager to get through this, but basically, we’re starting from scratch. Most of the repairs have been approved. The floors were removed down to the beams and plywood is down. They tore out sections of the water damaged walls and removed asbestos. Right now, waiting on plumbing to be done so our wonderful contractor can get everything BACK in our house.

We are moving forward, it’s just taking time. :/

One thought on “Update…

  1. And while we wait, I keep diligently coming to check and giving you views. I’m sorry you had a s*** adjuster. Owning a house is awesome until it isn’t, huh?

August Donation Drive (1 Comment)

For August, we have a new drive with multiple incentives. First of all, we have a free bookmark. If you don’t see that post below, you can read it here. (Not technically free since the minimum cost is two stamps and two envelopes.) I SHOULD get them in on Monday, then need to hunt down some bookmark tassels around here. 😀 Second, the incentive goal. This is for September updates and is pitting AD against Akaelae. The top comic gets M-F updates if the goal of $1,000 is reached. If both comics go over the goal, then there will be extra updates for the second comic as well, just not M-F. (I’m scripting a black and white side story to this chapter.) Third, name a character when you donate. I’m going to prepare a page a bit later for extra donation wallpapers. Currently, we have Drift with $5 toward a wallpaper and Zeta with $12 toward a wallpaper. I’m thinking about having Wallpapers accumulate to $50, another $50 and it’ll turn into a downloadable print. (It will probably contain a small watermark to separate it from my own prints that way I don’t have anyone ‘stealing’ it and trying to sell it. You’ll be able to know if someone’s taking advantage of my work in ways they shouldn’t.) Now, because some readers ask me this: Donations are going toward groceries, gas, medication, doctors visits (I have two upcoming, Kim has two as well this month. Fortunately we have insurance so they only run $25-$35 each.) They are also going toward Tax free weekend to stockpile clothing for Kim. 😀 She starts school in just a few weeks and I will suddenly have… a REAL WORKING DAY! I will no longer have constant interruptions. 😀 It’ll be like when I was updating multiple comics all at once! (And I do intend to take AD back to 3 times a week full page updates if I can manage it once she goes back to school.)
