Some notes: So I did do one personal illustration this month, but it wasn't for I am the Villain. That's okay. I'm just glad I got something completed for once! I still have to complete last month's IATV illustration... Also, I did finally get caught up on commissions. Only took me all month. I feel like I need a random free week to get fully caught up. Or some additional caricature gigs. That would be great.

Simplify 1/3rd of the Kitchen Cabinets. – 0% complete.
Some notes: LOL NOPE. This month, this goal encompassed getting the top of the fridge cleared and putting shelves in our pots and pans cabinets so everything's not just stacked in there. It doesn't seem like much, but I just can't get done. I blame work.

Some notes: LOLOLOLOL NOPE. I usually use craft days with Sara to get caught up on TINAB, but, as noted by my last Life Update, I slept right through it. I was barely functional that day. This section is the easiest to bypass when I'm struggling to get caught up.
