Sudden storm.

We had to run several errands today (did not, however, manage to pick up Wings's reading glasses, because apparently the staff closed the place at midday unexpectedly without telling anyone why), and we got back literally just in time for the rain: a sudden storm that we had not expected to arrive anywhere nearly so soon, but it was glorious: over an hour of a heavy downpour, followed by another hour or so of lighter rain. That up there is when the wind first whipped up, with only a few sprinkles in the air; it turned to a torrent in moments.

Not that we shouldn't be used to sudden storms, I guess. Should also be used to those whose job it is to address them being dismissive, but I'm still outraged at the lack of urgency, and I'm already well beyond tired of the whole mess, although that's aggravated by lack of sleep due to pain these days, too. Anyway. More or less a month to wait. For those of you who don't know what all this means, you can read about it here. You can read why my main concern now is just the potential DX, treatment, and survival (i.e., not the medical bills themselves), half-way down the post here. And why I've been forcibly set back a whole month in the process of getting a diagnosis? You can read that here.

But, yes, we still will need to make consistent sales. I'll have travel costs coming up, plus, if the DX is worst-case, there'll be a lot of days (weeks? months?) when I won't be able to work, which means no chasing sales or patrons to pay regular bills and expenses. And as I said, Wings will have several new pieces out soon, too, possibly as early as the end of this week: at least one major necklace posted last night here, and a minimum of four new Warrior Woman and three new Pueblo pins (those last three, with a very cool new twist). I posted the first two Pueblo pins two nights ago; one has already sold, but you can see the other here. Seriously, go check out the necklace; it's incredible.

I'm skipping all the rest of it because I'm tired constantly, and frankly I don't have the focus right now for anything else. Links are here:

• Sales here; 
• Testimonials here; 
• Amazon wishlist here (priorities are LaminaSaver for Miika [she's set until August] coffee & metal/glass/dishwasher cleaners);
• Patreon here;
• Ko-fi here.

And if you've been contemplating a purchase? This would be a very, very good time to do it; I've got to make up this staggering outlay somehow. There's lots of fabulous new work, so please share all of the links.
