Reds. Also *in* the red from this weeks' massive (and non-optional) outlays. Sales and subscribers and shares needed more than ever.

The maple has begun to turn. It finally feels like fall to me. I need the reds of the maples for it to feel like home. Still very strange weather, enough to throw a wrench into the works for today's plans. It rained in the early-morning hours, covering everything in a film of slick ice by dawn. The fog moved in then. and while it's [mostly] gone now, the clouds are intensifying around the horizon even while the sun is still shining. 

Wings has more earrings in the works, and if he gets them done today, I'll post them later. Spirit knows we need sales; as I said, we had to pick up the car night before last, and while it wasn't as bad as I feared, it was still bad enough. And you can keep your ghouls and goblins; the tax bill is going to haunt us for a very long time to come, to say nothing of the five figures' worth of medical bills remaining. Like I said yesterday, I am exhausted, physically, mentally, and every other way, with the rapid-fire weather changes playing hell with my autoimmune disease and with my breathing issues, so the rest is cut-and-paste.

I've been saying that I don't see a way to claw us out of this hole. I still don't. And it's hard to think when illness fogs your brain as badly as it does mine. There's nothing I can do right now except what I've done my whole life, which it just to keep putting one foot in front of the other. I have to make some sales, I have to find a way to bring in major amounts right now, and I don't know how, but I've got to get work trying. Wings has new work out, two brand-new pairs of earrings, and they're fabulous. It would be a small start.

We need sales, badly. Never moreso, frankly. What follows are links that are a means of helping a little bit. I am sick, body, mind, heart, and spirit, and there's no room for anything else:
Please share the links. We're now officially into holiday order season, because commissions take time, so if you're planning on holiday gifts, please keep Wings's work in mind. And given what we're up against, we won't turn away donations, either, because we simply can't afford it.
