More delays. More payouts tomorrow. Stove install due Monday. Shares needed.

Just because I love that shot and the colors it shows.

::Sigh:: the closer we think we get to moving in upstairs, the more roadblocks appear. No luck with the shower door; I guess no one local needs the business, so it's back to square one. Also no luck with the sink drain. And tomorrow, we're going to have another large payout on the tilework. Monday we have to be able to cough jus the balance for the woodstoves. And I'm not functional enough to keep any more balls in the air, or issues in my mind, than that right now. Lots more rain, lots of huge swings in extreme weather and temperature and barometric pressure.

We have to get the bed set up so we can at least sleep up there this weekend. For now, especially as late as it is and as sick as I am, the rest is cut-and-paste.

But setbacks there are, particularly with regard to the bathrooms, and delays, and expenses, and we're gearing up for them to install the woodstoves next Monday (we have saved one major expense there, though; the telework means that neither will require a separate hearth). But that's going to be a big hit, and it will come right on top of paying the tile crew again tomorrow. So please send the links out far and wide, because we ned to keep this process moving. It was unusually warm and humid today, thanks to clouds that moved in overnight last night, but the humidity (and the rain) brings its own problem health-wise, and I'm still battling the mold in my lungs and the effects on my autoimmune disease. So, since I'm never going to get well until we're out of this tin can permanently, and we need to begin that process this weekend, please share all of the links:
  • Wings's direct PayPal link;
  • Wings's site, for sales;
  • Lowe's cards (the physical version) via our Amazon wishlist;
  • Lowe's e-cards (delivered via e-mail) here; and
  • Home Depot cards via the company site. The e-version using my e-mail address is great; I take the tablet to the store with me, and they scan it off the screen.
  • Our Amazon wishlist generally.
  • Wayfair gift cards, to replenish all the furnishings that the RV has destroyed in one way or another.
  • Partial registry #1, from Bed, Bath and Beyond. It's not complete; what's on it so far are drapes for the upstairs, associated curtain rods, and bath rugs for both bathrooms. ]
  • Partial registry #2, from Wayfair. Also not complete, but covers a number of the area rugs needed for the upstairs and some kitchen items. I have to supplement this one (and the BBB one) badly, but I've been pulled in all directions nearly every second, and I probably won't get time to add to them before late tonight or tomorrow. But about Wayfair, & VERY IMPORTANT: They make it possible to crowdfund each item. So if you'd like to help, but the prices are too much for one person? You can kick in 20 bucks, or ten, or five, on any one item; many small donations can add up to one item. And while at the moment two rugs are out of stock, I believe you can fund those in advance of their restocking; also, I'll have other badly-needed items on the list before long, because the wiring and mold and lime and everything else in this toxic tin can has destroyed so much of what we used to have. I'm sickened by the amount of stuff we have to throw out (on top of the things that were simply ruined, such as the microwave fried by the wiring in this place).
Many thanks and much love from us both, for donations, gift cards, shares, recs, moral support, and just generally helping me not lose my mind. This has been a difficult day health-wise, with my flare itself seeming to flare, no doubt in part due to our high winds and drastic weather changes. But there are also the breathing difficulties, and sundry other issues secondary to the AI problems, and so I am moving very, very slowly, and accomplishing things only with quite a lot of difficulty. I'm going to be slow, and late, and unfocused; please bear with me while we try to get into a much healthier space.
