I have two very time consuming offline issues that is affecting my time to work on commissions. I have informed my commissioners, and offered refunds if they do not want to wait, but they declined.

I still feel extreme bad and unprofessional about it. What should I do in this situation?

I set very short deadlines for myself (About two weeks) and if I do not make these deadlines I feel extremely bad. I am worried that the commissioners will think bad of me for taking so long. I was considering upgrading their commissions, or drawing something for free after finishing them. As a commissioner, what would your opinion be?
