kent state is trying to collect on the tuition they charged me for when my financial aid ran out. i, uh, obviously do not have $5k~ just laying around because i'm a millennial with a full time job living under the poverty line and the sole income for my family. i currently have ~30 days to either pay something significant on this (or all of it) or the debt collectors are taking the case to court to obtain a garnishment. the attorneys at the office have explictly told me it's easier for them to go through the courts to get the maximum amount they legally can from me each month ($500~) than to let me pay off a lesser amount over a longer period of time.


if my pay is garnished, the state of ohio allows 25% to be taken from each paycheck, pre-tax. in my case, this will be something to the tune of $250 every two weeks. i will absolutely not be able to pay my bills or my rent in that situation. or i won't be able to buy food. it'll be that kind of decision for the 10~ months it will take to pay off the $5,800 debt


everyone's broke! i get it, i am too. my credit is also abysmal and i can't get a debt consolidation loan because of that. this is the only option i have right now, short of bankruptcy (which also takes money, and time to do) so fingers crossed, i guess


goal is set at $6k because it continues to accrue interest during this time and i don't know what that may turn out to be. anything over what goes to the debt collectors will go to bills


i also have a variety of links, including commission info and my ko-fi shop listed on my carrd, if you'd prefer to help in that manner

I'm trying to start keeping up on updating all my galleries, including this one! I've been a bit more productive, art-wise, these last couple months and it's nice to keep everything updated the same!

So....who all is left over here and how was your summer?

Okay, finally set this up after having one for awhile. Any originals or prints I make will go up here and I'll do my best to link them on the appropriate submissions, as well!

Ugh, this isn't something I wanted to do, but it looks like it's going to happen anyhow.

The husband got a court summons for small claims court about the ambulance we called about a year and a half ago when he severed the tendon in his thumb (and had to have two subsequent surgeries because the hospital was dumb, but that's beside the point). The ambulance bill is $530 and if I read the letter right, if we settle out we may still have to pay court costs (which i'm not sure how much that is, but let's assume at least another hundred). 

We DON'T want to actually go to court/trail for this and we'd much rather settle out and pay the charge. 

The problem is, we DON'T have the money to do that right now. Sob story is because we're already a behind on rent, we owe about $600 for the husband's tuition (which allows him to be able to keep his on-campus job, which allows us to have more income), our budgeted electric payments were hiked up (something i'm currently dealing with getting fixed - but it doesn't change the fact that it has to be paid in the meantime), AND two of our cats our sick (which can go on the care credit, but that's gotta get paid sooner or later, too).

So I'm offering commissions. I'm offering just about any type of commission, too.

I'd prefer to stick with digital stuff, but I'm open for traditional pieces, too! My traditional prices may or may not be a little pricier than my digital stuff (depends on size, really - something like an art cart or a small badge wouldn't be too much - larger things would), but feel free to ask!

I've also got some open YCH's and adoptables available! Check out this list:www.furaffinity.net/journal/69…

If you're unable to grab a commission, PLEASE signal boost? It would be greatly appreciated!
