Just wanting to jump.

Me yesterday morning, just wanting to jump.

Aside from the pain front, things have improved somewhat since then, thank all that's holy. [The pain thing is likely not going to improve, only worsen, so I'd better get used to it.] exhaustion has its benefits, I guess, because I finally got some sleep. Not enough (it's never enough), but some.

More importantly, we have some light at the end of the tunnel on Wings's dental work. Nothing yet, and it probably won't be (can't be)) rescheduled until sometime next month, even if/when. But there's hope.

Unfortunately, I'm still reduced to trying to get work done with a torn ankle and subluxed hips and knees, and now two barely functional hands, and a laptop that continues to deteriorate by the day (a camera, too, and both are essential for our work — not just mine, but his). The pain is . . . very bad these days. It's not a function of weather or cold, mostly, but of deterioration. In desperation, I'm adding one last supplement, a costly one, in hopes of getting it to ease off even a little, but it won't be in until next week. I'm also trying to plan for all the expenses of winter to come. The Pueblo closure is slated to last two full months this time, so it will be worse than usual. In that period of time, there will be taxes to pay, his scrip to keep refilling, his dental work to try somehow to get done, and forget about my own follow-up tests, to say nothing of plumbing/wall repairs or all the work still unfinished on the house; I'm scrapping everything, because we can't afford it. Yes, I'm due for follow-up scans and biopsies already, and they're not going to happen, because we don't have five figures' worth of scratch to waste on it. I've still got to make sales, try to drum up new Patreon subscribers, do whatever I can to bring in more money, all on top of everything else. Folks can help in several ways (sales are always preferred):
Please share everything. Thanks.
