Fall is here now.

Fall is here now. The land knows it, air and wind know it, sky and storm know it — even the hawk knows it, the giant eagle-sized one that only arrives once autumn is well under way having returned just this morning, along with the rain. At the opposite end of the avian size spectrum is the tiny chartreuse warbler there amid the dying sunflowers; it was one of his clan that I rescued the other day.

The morning had to be spent on errands (picking up my scrip, pharmacy and hardware supplies, etc.). So I'm doubly behind today. It's also cold. We'll need a fire again tonight. Winter prep begins in earnest across the board now. Food, land, animals, house. Still can't do anything about the plumbing, and every day that goes by makes it worse, and my own health with it. The pups have created their [our] first big problem, and thus their first big related cost. We need this, but by the time you get shipping added, we're looking at close to $500, and we can't afford it (I also realized yesterday that it's normally $540 before shipping, but it's part of their Labor Day sale, so it's 1/3 off right now). So if you'd like to kick in to keep the two little monsters safe and, well, alive, you can do it via the PayPal link below; we're ~$300 toward the total courtesy of folks in recent days. Because right now? I'm having to leash them and take them out every time, which means I'm getting NO work done, and we can't afford that, either.

Wings has a bunch of new work out, too. Check out the Bracelets and Rings Galleries on the site; five new entries in the latter, and a couple new cuffs in the former, plus Sunday's spectacular new work, which you can read about here. There is also a lot on the wishlist that is urgent, particularly fly spray, his KT tape, the cleaning supplies to deal with the plumbing fallout, and the air purifiers, because yesterday was the first day I've been able to breathe at all in weeks, thanks to the constant smoke (and the inability to breathe is complicating my health severely in all kinds of ways now). 

The links are here:

[Obviously, the wishlist is back in force. There are things I absolutely cannot get except through Amazon, and I can't add that stress onto all the others now.] Please share everything, because I have got to make regular sales; that part of it is all on me. Thanks.
