so ya girl needed flooring back in september. everything but the bathroom and kitchen was pure concrete (it still is in my entry stairs) and it would have sucked any heat out of the room. my arthritis would have screamed all winter on top of greif and stress. i used my credit card to get it sorted and planned to use my inheritance to pay it off. back then the date felt very concrete. since then we've discovered things about the process and had delays.
which has led to a default notice coming through my door this afternoon. i now need to pay £140 (roughly $186) by April 8th.
naturally i got my ass back on my pc to work and photoshop wont open. so until that deadline there's a sale on my ko-fi account. use the code APRIL for 20% off. it will be valid until and regardless of whether i make that deadline.
now off i go to make ps work again. once i get it sorted i'll open commissions with another discount! until then please feel free to send requests for gifs, icon borders, and templates in mt askbox.
if you've bought something while i've been inactive, thank you so so much and i promise i've noticed and appreciated every single one. ♥
hiding here right now . i love ayaka but i’m a bit overwhelmed there . i miss writing my other muses a lot however i may do a complete carrd overhaul and then fix my list to make it a little cleaner . i just don’t really care about graphics much on here so of course i’ll stay iconless and minimalist in style . i’m also going to move my sideblogs back here except for manami since I have too much love for her .
