Seasonal Shop & Eriberry Issues

Site Update

Hey everyone, long time no see! -- at least, it feels like weeks and weeks for me.

I'd hoped someone would update you on my situation, but basically everything got a little tangled up over the last couple of days due to some offline issues on my part. My router completely abandoned me this weekend and only just started working about an hour ago, so I'm hoping the connection holds through this severe snowstorm we're having. I spent almost the entirety of New Year's Eve in the ICU because my grandfather fell suddenly ill, and I'm sad to say that we lost him New Year's Day. As I'm sure you can imagine, this week has not been the best. I don't want to flood the News with personal things, but I did want to let you know a snippet of what was going on.

Due to my absence, some handy staffies pulled together to work on the Seasonal Shop, but it's not yet finalized and isn't stocking everything I wanted to put in there.
There will be a very large news post made when it officially opens tomorrow, so please do not purchase anything until then.
Before we announce something as ephemeral as a seasonal shop, it's generally buyer beware, because the lack of update means we're probably still adding and tweaking things.

I know people have already made purchases, you eager little munchkins, so I will try not to alter things too severely.

I also have some fun New Year's things to add along with new January pets and the premium item, so just sit tight for those!

I'm so sorry to hear about your grandfather, Eri =( Next week it will be 2 years since I personally lost my grandmother. Take all the time you need, RL stuff like this is way more important than updating some pet site - we can wait. My thoughts are with you and your family <3

I am very sorry to hear about what happened to your beloved grandfather and my condolences go out to you and your family. So sorry to hear about your router troubles too.

Oh man, Eri, I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. Don't stress about Aywas too much right now, you obviously have far more important things on your plate.

As for the seasonal shop, have any users who've been around for a long time and did purchase early really been paying any attention at all? These things are never concrete until they've been officially announced. The site doesn't owe you anything if there *are* major alterations, so be glad Eri's even caring about that.

So sorry for your loss. Thank you for keeping us updated when you could. Will eagerly await further developments in the Shop, (haven't spent many candy canes yet, just bought them with snowflakes and bought 1 pet. I had to have that Inari) Stay warm, and take time to be good to yourself. We will survive here.
