Bossy.
She knows the word "NO" now.
She is also gonna dominate Miskwaki all over the place. ::Shrugs:: ehh, well, he's used to that, thanks to Cree and Shade. He'll be fine.
No word back from the vet yet, so I doubt she'll be out before the first of the week to check her over. Meanwhile, she's settling in, bossy and all. She is so happy with her new digs, but she also doesn't like losing sight of Miskwaki (even though she still screeches at him over the fence), and she's learned that she LOVES human attention, so she comes right up to us and follows us around. Still head- and hand-shy, predictably, but she does like having her nose petted.
Wings and Joe T got some stuff accomplished today. Me, notsomuch. I'm still not sleeping, and still dealing with jacked pain levels and repeated small episodes like what happened to me in November. All this puts me way behind, as always, so here comes the cut-and-paste. We very much, very badly need sales and new Patreon subscribers, and if you subscribe today, you won't be billed until August 1st. We have got to make some sales, though. This weekend is the Fiesta, and it's had . . . hmm, issues, as they say, as well. Powwow should've been last weekend, but was of course canceled with virtually no warning to anybody. Business is nonexistent all over town, and without those sales and subscribers, I honestly don't know how we get through this drought, both literal and metaphorical, with no tourist trade and not much else, either. Here are the links and a request to share them:
- My new Patreon, The Interstices (Writing Between Worlds);
- Wings's site, for sales, with new items posted;
- Wings's direct PayPal link;
- A way to buy me coffee (which actually goes to all of our medical bills, which continue to mount);
- Amazon wishlist, which mostly consists of animal and household stuff;
- Partial registry #1, from Bed, Bath and Beyond. There are new kitchen-y things on it now, stuff that I didn't realize we'd need to replace (either because the RV ruined it or because we gave it away when we had to downsize).
I had said that I'd really like to raise another $500 in subscriptions before July is out, just to have a little more to throw to the medical wolves that are constantly at my throat. That never ends, either, and the stress is not helping with the cardio stuff. Now, we've got a lot more that needs to be done, too, and I'm damned if I know how. The truck was more than enough to throw a wrench in the works (and that's still unfixed, for the most part, given that just the one part is more than $1,200, so . . . ), but this thing with Shade? Out of left field. And once you're in it, you have to keep going; there's no way out but forward, whatever the result. So please, please share the links. Thanks to everyone for the prayers and kind words and other help for Shade. I know she was better off for it, and I know she appreciated that. Miskwaki, too, and now his new girl.
