Haunted.

That was moonrise last night. If that doesn't convince you everything's haunted, I don't know what will.

Speaking of haunted, it's been a terrible day today. I mean, it always is, because this is one of those awful collections of markers that I try to push out of mind as much as possible. But on a day when I've had almost know sleep and some of the worst pain of the summer so far? Yeah, that's not happening. Add to it being swamped with offline work, and I'm only just now getting to my own work for the day, and it's probably going to be another long and sleepless night.

Sleepless mostly from pain, but not entirely.  The stresses are beginning to mount. We have a firewood delivery due Friday, and I have to be able to cover it. Since fall is already fully here, I have to be able to get us covered for all the prep that will inevitably be needed for an early winter. Meanwhile, Wings spent this evening hauling a bunch of heavy hoses up to the north willows to try, once again, to keep them alive. Without a well on the north side, everything's literally dying around us now.

If I could sell any combination of Wings's new pieces, it would get us out of this month and well into September. If I could sell one of the big ones, like one of the belts, maybe I could get us on the drill list. But I've got way too much to do and too few hours and other resources to do it. It's urgent now; I have to push everything down to make sales, and there's always something or someone else demanding money. 

I can't do this alone. I can't.

Wings has A LOT of new work, and I'd be grateful to everyone who shares all of it, and of course, if you're in the market, keep us in mind for purchases. After paying our taxes the last week plus some other bills, I really do need to build up some reserves to get us just a tiny bit ahead of the eight-ball of bills.

I did get Wings's brand new ring up, posted here Saturday, and the other new cuff, up a few  days ago, is here. You do want to see all the images of that one, too. We still have to make it through the month, never mind the rest of the year, and there are also far too many folks who need help (which we did the other day and will be doing more of next week, in addition to having had to pay for the farrier and for an upcoming firewood delivery; fall's here already). Anyway, links are here:
  • Sales here
  • Testimonials here
  • Amazon wishlist here (priorities are all the mosquito-prevention items, especially the portables and the patio-surface ones, because Wings can take them around the land with his as he works);
  • 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 watch for all of it and share all of the links.
