My partner and I are facing an unprecedented amount of blows to our finances as of this week and in the coming month. The video could have been shorter, but the gist of it all is that our budget and finances have been completely blown away by an ER visit, followed by absolutely necessary dental work while still in the 90 day wait for enrollment in work benefits… and then being let go in response to missing two days from agonizing pain, and a third to get a broken tooth with exposed root/nerve.
Signal boosting would be greatly appreciated, as would any well wishes or help in our goals. We’ve been intending to get married this coming Winter, and have been trying to save for that along with looking at starting up school to advance our careers. I’m in a mad dash for a new job knowing I’m going to miss 2-3 pay checks at the least before I’ll have another source of income.
Thanks again, everyone. Much love and peace <3
Finally completed my Mage's legendary staff! Just in time for Timewalking events, this week.
Hey everyone - it's been a long time since I posted through Anook. A LOT has happened. My WildStar guild, <Drow>, has been 15/15 DS and had Avatus on farm for a bit over a month now. We've received two Artifact weapons that were handed to a couple of our most senior raiders. I'm super excited for the F2P update and all that it entails coming later this month.
In my personal life, things have been pretty bad. Both my grandfather and my partner's stepfather are in the hospital and their health is in decline. We are moving closer to my partner's family to live out on their land to be closer to his Mother because she'll need him when his stepfather passes. On the way back from cleaning and working on the house, an 18-wheeler's tire blew out, hit us and went under us causing us to spin out of control into a cement guard on the freeway; the car was totaled.
I haven't seen my own family in close to 4 years because of us having to endlessly work to keep up with the cost of living. While my partner's Dad and Stepmother were able to co-sign on a car and help us get one under their name, the result has been a higher car note and insurance rate; we're already barely keeping our heads above water, and seeing my family is getting pushed further and further away.
Because of this, we decided to try a GoFundMe fund raiser. We've never tried to crowdsource funds or anything like this, and didn't set any expectations - it was a "Well, let's see what happens" thing. We've received support from some amazing friends, and every little bit helps. If you'd like to donate anything at all, head over to gofundme.com/chrisandjereme. Even if you can't donate, spreading the word and helping us to reach out to those who can is so very much appreciated.
Thank you everyone for your support, contributions and compassion.
Tonight I mad a hard choice. I'll be raiding with Drow to tackle raid content, due to their more progression-push oriented raiding style. TCC is still my family home for every other character because they're amazing people and I love them all. It seems to be my eternal dilemma in MMO's as far back as 10 years ago in WoW: stay with a guild for the friendships despite that their end game goals are different to yours; or join a guild where you can achieve your raid goals in the game, but fear disappointing your old friends. In the end I know I have to play the game for my own enjoyment, while carefully treading on how that effects others. So it's a bittersweet thing. But I'm definitely excited about my new raid opportunity, being a Stalker DPS again and pushing content. Getting content done sooner means more time to spend on other games and things.
Here's a preview of yy latest and quite possibly greatest housing project to date: The Voidstar II on Malzek Rainfury (US-Entity). Roughly 50% complete. #WildStar
What if I told you this isn't a world zone, but Malzek's ship? (his plot) #WildStar
Congratulations!
Great screenie, congrats!
Congrats!
