Hi guys! hope you all are doing well! 

Sorry for being so quiet recently, I have a habit of keeping things to myself and find it hard talking about my life lol but I have been working on something exciting which I will explain later in this post. ❤

Earlier this week I made a really scary decision 😰 I handed in my 2 week notice at work and will be working full time making mods starting December . I've had this job since before I graduated college, I genuinely enjoyed working there, its hard saying goodbye to all the wonderful people there 😢but I know its a step I must take. 

As much as I loved doing graphic design, I love modding even more, I felt like I had to make a choice between the two because all my free time were spent modding for the past year and a half and it can be very exhausting😖. I barely have any time to relax and unwind, and I started to feel really burnt out.

Modding is really time consuming, I spend about 30 hours a week working on mods, that on top of a full time job just became too much 😓 and having to make animations for all my mods doesnt help either, I did the math and it turns out I can only make about 1.5 seconds for animation for every hour of work Lol sitting in front of the computer all day plus the stress really took a toll on my physical and mental health 😔

So starting in December I will have so much more time to mod and plenty of time for myself  which I am so excited about. Modding full time will mean I will have more time to create better animations, work on bigger projects, and release higher quality content. 😍 I have a huge list of things I want to make which I will post in a separate post.  Feel free to comment and add things you want to see as well in the comment section as well!

So as for what I have been up to, I got really burnt out last month after making the pinata and the jack-in-a-box 😩I couldnt bring myself to mod for a full week, and right after that I got my wisdom teeth🦷 pulled out and lost another precious weekend with a swollen head laying in bed. but Im finally starting to feel like myself again. I have been working on a highly requested item, here's a hint of what it is(it is toddler only, sorry babies) :

hmmm I wonder what it is 🧐

this is single-handedly the most complex object I've worked on, I didnt want to say anything earlier in the month because I actually wasn't sure if I could pull it off or not, I normally dont want share any news unless I am 99% sure I can make it (that 1% is reserved for my fear of a random bug that comes out of nowhere and destroy the whole mod lol), the last thing I want to do is get you guys' hopes up and not be able to deliver in the end 😨

and I think i made a new record on backup files 


I  can't believe I actually started working on this in September 😳

but I can say as of today everything is functional, now I I need to finish all the animations, add more swatches and do some finalization and testing. 

Im not really sure if I will be able to finish this off to release in November, if I dont I will add this to a small pack of objects Im planning for December and release all 4 objects at once. 

If you made it this far, thank you so much for your patience and your support! I will talk to you all soon!

Good luck on your decision. We only have one life to live on this earth, and we should all seek out that which makes us happy. At the end of it all, no one says: "I wish I had worked more."

Monumental change can be scary and it can also bring new opportunities! So glad to be able to support your amazing mods and I can’t wait to see what fantastic things you’ll create, especially now that you’ll be in a space where burnout isn’t a constant threat to said creativity.

Higher quality you say??? That’s just not possible! Your creations are as good or a lot of times BETTER than the original content! You are amazing :-) now more quantity ok I can believe that but I’m very happy for you ;-)

I don’t see how your mods could get any better lol as they are already such high quality. I am so excited to see what you have in store though. I am very happy to be supporting you and your work as your mods really make such a big positive difference in my game.

YOu havent put out any new contect in 5-6 months now. I thought we would be getting new contently regularly. I was a parton but ended my payment with no new content. So, I was asking, how is it going?
