Storms ongoing. Shares very much needed.


The storm is ongoing, both out there [gestures at the whole world], and right here. Ours is by far the more manageable, although it's still snowing for now, it's going to be much colder tonight and tomorrow, and there's another wave of storms on the way tomorrow night or Monday.

The guys are supposed to be here to finish up (well, mostly) the rewiring tomorrow. I'm still fuming over the whole mess, especially give how far it set us back, in terms of both time and money. We have shelled out so much since the first of the year that we're going to be scrambling to keep the work going. And we have to get this thing done. This tin can is not going to last a whole lot longer.

We needs shares, and we need them badly:
  • Shares of our YouCaring page via the widgets provided, especially the widget code, which has once again been moved back to the purple box at the lower right-hand side of the page, that produces the image shown just above:
  • Shares of Wings's site; sales also fund the construction (indeed, they are the baseline for it). Testimonials help.
  • I've added Lowes gift cards to our Amazon wishlist. Those will really, really help with materials costs from this point forward. We need to keep the cash freed up for labor as much as possible, but we're going to have to buy a water heater, kitchen fixtures, flooring, and a host of other material items in the days and weeks to come, and this is the best place to do it. 
And before you share our links, please go share Laura's. Lin's spirit is where the water meets the light, but Laura will still need our help for a while. A fitting immediate legacy for Lin would have been funding her YouCaring effort fully by year's end, to provide Laura with the assurance of a safety net. There has been zero movement on it for at least a week, probably more. This is not acceptable to me; Lin's memory deserves better, and so does Laura, who has given so very, very much of herself in recent months for someone so many claimed to love. Please T/R/share/donate to her fund if you can. Especially that last. It's needed.

Thanks, everyone.
